@DarthVengeant Yes, an he’s playing a dobro, which is a resonator, and not even really a guitar, as a friend of mine informed me. A lot of reactors said the guy’s voice really stood out. Like you said, “message and meaning.” The competition does not have that. The entertainment industry may as well already be A.I. because it is mass produced quantity of the same bland, fluff, bubblegum nonsense of consumerism. I saw some headline that Late Night talk shows went on hiatus for 3 months and no one noticed? I don’t know if it was a real headline or not because I stopped watching a long time ago because they are all the same. They speak the same. Same jokes, same stars. Admittedly, I used to watch it all, but years ago.
@DarthVengeant The entertainment industry lost it’s connection to real issues and real people and real substance, so when something like this or Sound of Freedom comes along with no overhead and no advertising budget and makes a statement, it adds to the impact when the industry gets triggered by it. You see the selfishness of the industry and how much they hate competition and despise anyone else who gets a little taste of success. What makes it twice as powerful is to see the privileged media class get mad. As with the Jason Aldean song, the more simple and basic the verses are, the more of an impact it has because it’s very direct, very plain and very honest. It does not need CGI or A.I. or fireworks, because it’s not trying to bamboozle you with sound and fury. There’s no Industrial Light and Magic with these guys.
