it’s country music. you have to be tone deaf or inbred to enjoy it.

There are a lot of types of country and a lot of different singers. Radio USA certainly doesn’t represent all of it.

It’s like saying you have to be a punk or a lower-class African American to enjoy rap. Rap is surprisingly varied, done by basically all nations and ethnicities, and more-often-than-you’d-think political or otherwise intelligent. Link Park is my favorite band, by the way, and most of their rap is about introspection, dealing with mental illness, or putting down bad relationships— and the latter can be angry, melancholy, resolved-and-hopeful, forgiving, and anything in between.
