This is another one of those dumb takes making the rounds. I can easily think both gangsta rap as you call it and this song are stupid and/or problematic. That isn’t a mutually exclusive deal like some of you think it is. Even though it has been drug into the conversation, I’m not sure WAP is on the same level. Offensive to me personally, sure but that’s not on the same level as the issue with the other two examples.

[williemackgarza 1826]

Yea a dumb take.
Just like its dumb to let any kind of music offend u. Shitty bro country, shitty gangstacrap, shitty wap… all of its stupid.

Wait….your position is that Jason Isbell, who regularly sells out his shows, sells the shit out of his albums and songs that he wrote, and is one of the most acclaimed artists of his generation and genre….wasn’t relevant till Morgan Fucking Wallen covered “Cover Me Up?” WTF? And you claim to be a Texan?

He was plenty relevant 15 years ago.    He was very clearly salty when someone he deemed not worthy is getting attention. A pedestal, I believe were his words.  You’d hope someone so blessed with words would be less transparent, such talent? But the tweets are there. He should cry harder, it might help.

Imagine Waylon “backing the blue” 🙄

 

also was driving earlier and Alabama's “song of the south” came on. 30 years ago you could have a no. 1 country song lamenting the difficult realities of rural life during the great depression but also praising FDR and the New Deal and noting the benefits and necessity of urbanization. If released now they would probably be accused of being communist pedophiles

 

 

Shit, Lynard Skynard had a  badass hit song about the evils of cheap guns on demand 48 years ago, don't tell me the south is more southern now than it was in 1975.

I kinda like the small town sentiments in this one. 

Good ole Zip City

Your Daddy was mad as hell
He was mad at me and you
When he tied that chain to the front of my car
And pulled me out of that ditch that we slid into

Don't know what his problem is
Why he keeps sending me away?
Don't know why I put up with this shit
When you don't put out and Zip City's so far away

Your daddy is a deacon down at the Salem Church of Christ
And he makes good money as long as Reynolds wrap keeps everything wrapped up tight
Your mama's as good a wife and mama as she can be
And your sister's puttin' that sweet stuff on everybody in town but me

Your brother was the first born, got ten fingers and ten toes
And it's a damn good thing 'cause he needs all 20 to keep the closet door closed

Maybe it's the 26 mile drive from Zip City to Colbert Heights
Keeps my mind clean
Gets me through the night

Maybe you're just a destination, a place for me to go
Keeps me from having to deal with my 17 year old mind all alone
Keep your drawers on, girl, it ain't worth the fight
By the time you drop them I'll be gone
And you'll be right where they fall the rest of your life

You say you're tired of me taking you for granted
Waitin' up 'til the last minute to call you up and see what you want to do
But you're only 15, girl, you ain't got no secretary
And "for granted" is a mighty big word for a country girl like you
I bet that's just your daddy talking
'Cause He knows that blood red carpet at the Salem Church of Christ
Ain't gonna ever see no wedding between me and you

Zip City it's a good thing that they built a wall around you
Zip up to Tennessee then zip right down to Alabama
I got 350 heads on a 305 engine
I get ten miles to the gallon
I ain't got no good intentions

It's pretty well established that, unless we're discussing bullet calibers, fatty is one ignorant mother fucker.

I was going to say he’s not that bad, just has some bad takes on certain things because of a different value system.

Meh. Dude can continue to cry in the corner about how unfair the world is and I’ll continue to laugh.  My only hope is he resides in TN. 

Then he just keeps digging on a take that is just plain dumb. Crying in the corner doesn’t describe Isbell at all. He’s literally going head to head with his industry on a lot of his beliefs and values. It has been pretty impressive to see a few (very few) standing up as well or on his behalf. This isn’t a shut up and dribble situation before you go that way, these guys get paid to put their words out for everyone to listen to.

He can be pro abortion and anti gun all he wants, I couldn’t gaf.  Doesn’t seem to be working out for him on that front (lulz). But crying about putting artists on a pedestal because you disagree with a mistake they made, while drunk, while you were yourself a coke addict/alkie, miss me with that.  It’s bitchmade.  Which has been my opinion the entire time.

He was pissed because Wallen didn’t stay cancelled.  He was pulled from every station in America.  A year later he’s on every non-rap station, and Isbells pussy hurt and he tweeted about it.  Sort of like, a salty bitch.

I’m not sure why I’m even bothering, but that isn’t how that went at all. The issue that came up a year later was around him making the appearance at the Opry. The point was bigger than Wallen specifically, it was about the lack of support for black artists by the country music industry and Nashville specifically and how allowing Wallen to pop up onstage in the heart of the industry was a problem.

You might want to try and look through the narrative that you get spoon fed and actually see things from the other side everyone once in a while. You don’t have to agree with them, but at least looking at it from that viewpoint might give you a little more insight into the world.

Not sure how this isn’t what I said. Upset WM wasn’t cancelled enough for him.  Threw titty fit on Twitter about fans putting him on a pedestal.  WM explodes.  JI, I’m not mad. I’m donating the money from his success. For real, please don’t say I’m mad. I’m totally not mad.

Meh. It’s a good enough tune, I definitely enjoyed it at the time. Doesn’t have to be hall-of-fame worthy to be a good song.

FFS, I was just on the road and cranked up Blue Swede’s “Hooked on a Feeling” - the opening “lyrics” of that gem are “oogah chaka oogah oogah!”, so….yeah. Still made me smile listening and singing along.

Small town country song:

lyrics

Spoiler

In the tiny town where I come from
You grew up doing what your daddy does
And you don't ask questions you do it just because
You don't climb to high or dream too much
With a whole lot of work and a little bit of luck
You can wind up right back where your daddy was

This little bitty town it ain't nothing new
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us too
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down
I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town

Yeah this one horse town
I'm an old married man at the age of twenty three
Got two little boys on the baseball team
And that might be their only ticket out
All they got is a worn out name
And a daddy that could've gone all the way
But I hung my saddle up and I settled down

This little bitty town, oh it ain't nothing new
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us too
Swallow your pride just to make your family proud
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down
I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town
Yeah this one horse town
Oh yeah

This little bitty town, oh yeah it ain't nothing new
We all stick around 'cause they all tell us too
Swallow your pride just to keep your family proud
If I didn't think that it would shut the whole thing down
I'd saddle that one horse and ride it right out of this town

I’m an old married man at the age of 23

got two little boys on the baseball team

and that might be their only ticket out

My mom’s dad was pulled out of school after finishing 4th grade to help his mom dad and older siblings pick cotton on land outside of Mansfield they would lose to the bank anyway. They stayed on as sharecroppers for the man who ultimately got it for pennies on the dollar and he never went back to school. Unfortunately not a unique story

He has to be loving all of this controversy, because up until this controversy, he was known for the Vegas shooting (not his fault, he just happened to be on stage, but it's what he became known for), and recently, for getting heat stroke in New England.
