You appeared to be telling 89 that he had no right to criticise the beardy bloke because he hadn't done this sort of thing himself. I just asked the question whether the same standard applied to people who criticise more commercially sophisticated ventures?
That’s how I read it too btw. All I said is I wasn’t a fan of the whiny first song and the 2nd song was pretty good but I didn’t care for the repetitive note structure. Guitar sounded nice though.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

You might listen to his interview with Jordan Peterson. Oliver Anthony is his stage name (which seems an odd choice), but he seems a lot more sophisticated than his angry, Appalachian, rebel yellin’ hillbilly trailer trash persona…. And a pretty deep soul.

I give credit for standing up for his principles.
Anthony had been booked to play Sept. 27 at Cotton Eyed Joe, a popular country music venue in Knoxville, Tenn. However, when the Virginia native on Monday caught wind of how much the tickets cost — $90 to $200 — he angrily pulled over to the side of the road with his “adrenaline pumping” and recorded a message to his fans, warning them not to buy the tickets.

Or maybe investing in his brand?

It’s something I need to a dress. I don’t want to be a stain on everyone’s fun here.
It depends on your definition…

Doesn't Trump (and the rich folks around him) realize this is a song about them?

That's the saddest thing I've seen all week.
I'm guessing that after The Psalms, that's his favourite song. Other than 'Macho Man', obviously.

Oliver Anthony, ‘Rich Men North of Richmond’ Singer, Finally Signs With an Agent
The viral songwriter joined UTA in Nashville
OLIVER ANTHONY — whose populist anthem “Rich Men North of Richmond” beat out superstars Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, Olivia Rodrigo, and Gunna for the top spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 last month — has inked a deal with United Talent Agency (UTA).
UTA co-head of Nashville Jeffrey Hasson and music agent Curt Motley said in a statement that they are “honored to represent such an authentic artist, and excited to put together a global strategy to bring Oliver Anthony and his music to the people.”
The agency’s portfolio includes Brittney Spencer, Megan Moroney, and Jamey Johnson, who recently performed with Anthony at the birthday block party for Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge in Nashville.

I don't know if it's me being out of touch, which obviously I am, but I have no idea who any of them are.
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

Jamey Johnson is pretty good.
