    There’s like 3-4 songs getting beat to death on the radio right now where the dude is getting cucked. It’s weird.

    meanwhile gothic/outlaw country is out here like “I’m going to kill a cop and then go fishing but then catch Satan himself and then everyone dies”

      And “Idgaf if there’s a legion of demons, I have work to do and I ain’t gonna let them stop me.” And “my family is most important to me and if you don’t agree with that, do better”

      You might have it backwards. Spousal homicide was far more common when divorce wasn’t an option.

    The gym was playing some country last time I went, and the song was some guy saying: I did her wrong, and now she’s leaving me. The guy sounded genuinely regretful and acknowledged he was to blame. I don’t hear that in a lot of other genres.

    I really love that Bo Burnham song about country songs, ever since I heard that it’s all I can hear when listening to country now. So many of the popular country songs follow that format almost exactly, it’s insane…
