    A friend shared the music with me and right off the rip I thought the song was a banger. It immediately fills a void left open by modern country. I didn’t read into it nearly as much as some folks here are . .which is somewhat puzzling to me. It’s country music it’s always going to be a woe is me story. I’ll listen to the words more closely next time.

    I’m new to Lemmy so I’m not sure yet how to tag users but Bee is getting beat up a bit in this thread. I think part of the reason why this is getting so much traction is because it is good music. The debate is the message. Misplaced frustration isn’t uncommon regardless of political belief. I think where exception is to be taken is when it pushes or promotes violence. The same debate was had about gangster rap and other forms of music years ago.
