This Sunday at the Super Bowl, Carrie Underwood will very likely be lip-syncing the National Anthem, whether she wants to or not, and it is mostly the fault of the king of pop country, Garth Brooks. This story starts way back in 1993 at Super Bowl XXVIII in Pasadena, CA. In 1993, Garth Brooks was [...]
We love to paint pop country with a broad brush around here, which may not always be fair. Think about it: sure we might consider two artists like Taylor Swift and Brad Paisley pop country, but the degree of how much pop compared to country they are, or even their overall talent level can be [...]
I would much rather be writing an album review, or highlighting a new artist. But since the 19-year-old Taylor Swift took home an unprecedented four CMA’s, including Entertainer of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year, this website has been flooded with traffic, similar to what Rush Limbaugh probably experienced after Obama’s win, which [...]
Yeah I know, you have no intention to watch the CMA’s. It doesn’t represent what you believe to be country music, and last year you were blinded for two weeks by the sheer whiteness of Carrie Underwood’s teeth. But I will be watching, and I’ll tell you why: First, if you’re new to the game, [...]
Tonight (11-6) Taylor Swift will be the host and musical guest of Saturday Night Live. Insert your favorite vomit joke here. If I desired, I could operate a daily blog on how Taylor is either not country, or how her handlers exemplify greed beyond all. Just this week a controversy brewed about how the new [...]
Country music legend and Hall of Fame member George Jones has come out slinging verbal daggers at pop country performers, saying “They Have Stolen Our Identity.” Jones, who has publicly come out against pop country before but never in such blunt terms, let the gloves fall in an interview today (11-2-09) with The Associated Press. [...]
I’ve been up in in pop douche Chris Brown’s kitchen even BEFORE he took a closed fist to his girlfriend Rihanna. Back in December (2008) this knucklehead recorded a song with country’s superlative sellout Tim McGraw called “Human”, and afterwards said “It’s incredible, I wanted to do something more along the country line. That’s a [...]
Apparently Tuesday (4-14-09) on the Oprah Winfrey Show there was a “Country Music Special.” Guests included Darius Rucker, Carrie Underwood, Sugarland, and Kenny Chesney. If you’re wondering where the COUNTRY music artists in that list are, so am I. Upper-middle class housewives screeched as fashion-plate stars sang songs written by other people through pitch benders, [...]
Just a few quick things: Drive By Truckers on Austin City Limits: In an attempt to conceal the fact that they have completely sold out and abandoned their roots of supporting local Texas music and other great independent country artists, Austin City Limits upon occasion will still put on a decent act, and this Saturday [...]
Jessica Simpson Gets The Boot !!! Remember when we were all miffed as mamby pambys that pop diva Jessica Simpson had decided to “make the move” and go to Nashville and see if she could suckle on that sweet, lucrative pop country tit? Well apparently Jessica’s country career went over like a poop in a [...]
The revolution to take back Country Music has begun my friends. I am boldly declaring that on this day, the 3rd of November in the year 2008, the first salvo has been shot, and the money changers and Californicators of the Nashville power-elite oligarchy have no other choice but to take notice. Pop country is [...]
Here we go! Freehank3.org’s 1st Annual Country Music Football Fire Up! Jessica Simpson & Carrie Underwood Get Nasty! Well we love to hate both these girls for their fake pop country lip-sync over-modulated bullshit, but apparently they both love to hate each other! Seems Carrie Underwood was once upon a time getting her laundry peeled [...]
