Last I heard, they were getting a ton of requests for it. Great song with pretty edgy lyrics. Popular =/= good. In fact, I only own a radio in my car (which usually doesn’t get used thanks to our iPods) and one on my alarm clock that I typically don’t use unless I’m curious for a minute. One’s ofter perceived as “quality, well written and sung music”.
Songs like “Dirt Road Anthem” and others of its ilk are not forced to fairly compete. Furthemore, if we’re going on the basis of “someone prefers this to that so just let it be”, why have objective measurements on or for anything? That’s why songs like these do well. Give it up, Danny. It’s not like you’ll enjoy every song by your favorite artists because sometimes there are clunkers. Another great artist that is making a splash in the underground is Brian Davis. The song debuted as a single as Aldean's previous single, " Don't You Wanna Stay ", was at the number one spot on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. This isn’t a hit…..yet, but I did hear a country DJ say last week that their phone was ringing off the hook with request for it! Our band argues over songlists for covers, I hear all the time, “any band can play that”. So, we honestly take it pretty hard when it’s difficult to find a new single to write positively about. It doesn’t impress me, but I don’t feel it bogs the track down either. April 11, 2011 "Dirt Road Anthem" This country rap song featured on Aldean's 2010 album My Kinda Party earned the … Back in late July, when Jason Aldean’s country rap mega-hit “Dirt Road Anthem” rose to #1 on the country Billboard charts, I predicted that this would make Aldean a legitimate candidate for Song, Album, and Entertainer of the Year at the 2011 CMA Awards, saying: Not only is “Dirt Road Anthem” now a #1 single, it has been in the top 5 for two months. # 10; (Reminded of Rehab’s “Sitting in a Bar.” Totally ruined it for me with the changes and the popularity. # 63; The video was entirely shot in black-and-white, portraying Aldean driving a Ram pickup truck through the countryside and stopping at a clearance where he reminisces of his teenage years of partying with friends around a campfire. If I were him I wouldn’t want to be associated with this song, in that manner, much less at all. # 51; That is fine, but I have, and the song makes me remember those times.” All of us who write for CU genuinely love country music including having strong emotional connections to it; I can guarantee that much.
Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave "Dirt Road Anthem" a 4.5 star rating, saying "Jason Aldean knows he’s not a rapper and this isn’t a style of music that he’ll continuously do...but as for a new song with a different sound, it certainly works. The following weekend, he appeared on Saturday Night Live to perform a tribute to the fallen—a commanding cover of Tom Petty’s “I Won’t Back Down,” whose message of surly stoicism fit Aldean to a T.

At times it adds a touch of humor that makes the reviews more entertaining, though I don’t think it’s necessarily true that every negative review is sarcastic. And umm, the music video for this song? I’m highly skeptical that it is indeed a drinking and driving reference.
Jason sent out the announcement today that the 2011 My Kind of Party tour will reach 32 cities, with the official kick-off show in Little Rock, AR. Written by Kelley Lovelace, Bobby Pinson and Neil Thrasher, “Rearview Town” tells the story of someone ready to put the town they grew up in behind them for good. # 37;
‘Fraid not. # 21; Written by Jim Collins and David Lee Murphy, Aldean released “Big Green Tractor” in May 2009 as the second single off his album Wide Open. Some scenes were in or near Rayon City but it is actually a part of Old Hickory. I’m an old timer country fan the earliest songs I remember while growing up are from the 30’s and 40’s, I’ve watched the genre grow and change. Im guessing that since the song went to number one and stayed there for WEEKS that now you guys are eating your hats. # 38; We both know about hot Georgia summers and cooling off with a six pack or two. # 98;
“One More Last Chance” was focused and based on an actual story that became legendary; it wasn’t some random tossed in line in a song.
# 9; You’re right, it is a matter of opinion, just like taste in songs. Aldean was on stage at 2017’s Route 91 Harvest festival in Paradise, Nevada, when a gunman opened fire, killing 58 and wounding hundreds. I’m really not sure why anyone would even have you guys do reviews…..if you’re NEVER right! I love old country, Don Williams, John Conlee, Earl Thomas Conley, and others, but I’m open minded enough to like the new stuff too. Which brings me to the low point of the track………….the lyrics. # 97; He’s more of a trend follower than most of Nashville, and that’s why his music isn’t going to hold up in the decades to come. # 33; I’m guessing you have never cruised on dirt roads, or hung out at bonfire parties. A song surely is not protected from a bad review merely because it hits #1. I think Danny does have a point: songs like Dirt Road Anthem aren’t meant to be art, they are meant to sell records and become hits. And as far as trends go, let’s hope this “country-rap” craze is short lived. And like I said, I’m a BG fan and enjoy his singing, but the chorus is non-sensical at best.
If the Man In Black’s “A Boy Named Sue” and Charlie Daniels’ “Uneasy Rider” don’t fit this bill, what else does? © Copyright 2020 – One Country. They’ve done a great job, marketing him as a brand name and reaching successful financial sales figures extremely well. It hardly says anything other than Country Universe and many radio station listeners have a different view on what music they would like to hear. Seriously, these are supposed to be reviews, not just bashing whatever YOU don’t like. http://jodybooth.viinyl.com/, I’m still waiting to see a good review about somebody, anybody. Doesn’t TK do some rapping in “I Wanna Talk About Me”? “In fact, these days I hardly even listen to radio because I like so few of the songs that do become hits.”, “The point is though that for someone who clearly isn’t into what is released to country radio these days it is completely idiotic to have two sites where you write reviews on such songs.”. And from that moment on, he has kept his foot on the gas pedal in more ways than one. # 68; Some just want more substance in the songs, and with all due respect, I think they’re right to want it. # 100; # 39; It really looks like every song that does well, you guys have given a bad review. # 49; Miranda Lambert), Straight To Hell (feat.
Not sure how someone could miss the sarcasm on this site, that’s all there is! Toby’s rap is funny and interesting. "Dirt Road Anthem" is a country rap song written by American singers Colt Ford and Brantley Gilbert (who also wrote Aldean's hit "My Kinda Party"), each of whom recorded his own version of the song.
"[5] A remixed studio version featuring Ludacris was released for digital download through iTunes on June 9, 2011. Like Hoggy for Oz, I read a few Country Music blogs also, there is one I won’t name that I’ve never seen a negative thought presented about any song reviewed ever. I’m really not sure why anyone would even have you guys do reviews…..if you’re NEVER right! The song debuted as a single as Aldean's previous single, "Don't You Wanna Stay", was at the number one spot on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. # 26; # 83; I’m just tired of reading these guys bash a lot of decent songs. However, I still don’t care for him or his music at all, but that’s another story.
I disagree with this review completely. I’m not saying I totally disagree with you, but you were just a little off base with the accusations there. The same held true for Nickelbacks “how you remind me”. Those songs, and often times those artists (again we can go back to Trisha Yearwood as an example) are often put on an uneven playing field. Also, that’s why I never listen to mainstream country radio anymore. Things such as purposeful lack of marketing and airplay by labels and FM radio, timing of releases, etc. I love all types of music, but when someone writes about things that the majority of the listeners relate to, it’s a hit. With this single, Jason Aldean pulls back the curtain on the mysterious ways of rural southern society.
Jason Aldean did a great job and I admire his sense of adventure.
“Now I think know how George feels” by Hank Jr? # 69; I just don’t think Aldean’s performance has enough spunk to really sell the rapping in this case. Good twist for Jason’s music. # 14; Jason Aldean leapt onto the country music charts with his first single “Hicktown” back in 2005. If you think it’s some new trend, keep in mind that Elvis has plenty of songs that would be on the country chart, the rock chart, and the R&B chart at the same time. Yes some of the songs they give bad review do well, mainly because of the name that has been attached to it, but also song like “If I Die Young” “Stuck Like Glue” “Long Hot Summer” and even Jason’s current single “Tattoos on this Town” have all gotten at least a B for a grade and are among the biggest hits around currently. With voyeuristic intimacy, Aldean allows us to walk in the shoes of small town men and women. How fearless of Aldean to allow outsiders this rare glimpse into the social mores and recreational activities of southern youth.
It dosen’t go so overboard on those things. The CMA Awards have long been known for unforgettable performances, and Aldean’s rendition of “Don’t You Wanna Stay” with Kelly Clarkson may just be one that ultimately lives on in infamy. # 65; Crazy Town.
The high point of this track come from that, when you look beyond the spoken word segments alone, this is his most warm, soaring single release to date from a production standpoint. It started with the corus, which I liked a little, even if it was filled with dead horse country cliches, if only because Aldean’s singing is decent. Why even have a grading process for anything if subjection can rule as King and supreme authority. While I personally find the song entertaining at times, it holds no artistic merits. If you have ever flipped off that ‘Y’all Come Back’ sign, chances are you can feel the song “Rearview Town” deep in your soul. # 53; I would normally expect a review of a song like this to be three sentences long, but this was pretty fun to read :). In the 2010s, Jason Aldean hit paydirt with a canny mix of yesteryear and up-to-the-minute: His 10-gallon Stetson and outlaw’s glower signaled vague traditionalism while his songs—party-hearty small-town anthems with revved-up guitars and flashes of hip-hop—embodied the definitively modern machismo that much of popular country was pointing toward. Its intended to be a hit. # 2; The younger generation loves, Jason Aldean, Brantley Gilbert, and Eric Church. Someone’s subjection will have trumpeted well thought, concrete objections that might come up against my work. Oh wait a second, it has has been done. The song expresses country pride, southern values, and remembering good times from the past.
Jason Aldean covered the song for his 2010 album My Kinda Party, and released it as the third single from the album in April 2011. Unfortunately, Bobby Braddock and Blake came up with that one before Blake was anybody, even before Austin came out. # 79; # 5; And if ever there was a song that exemplified the energy and sheer fire that comes with seeing the Georgia native and his band live, its “Lights Come On.”. So the songs that country universe rates poorly are often songs that get requests?
