  • Lorrie Morgan is the Latest Country Star To Share Her Opinion on the State Of Country Music…and She’s Not Happy

    It seems that country music isn't what it once was and a lot of country music legends are starting to speak out about it.

    We all know that things evolve over time. Things change and nothing can remain the same forever. This is true even in music. Yet while things can change should it really change so much to the point where it is unrecognizable anymore?

    It seems that there is a disconnect between what is being played on country radio and what is considered country music. Now, most people would just shake their head and tell the haters to to move it along but what happens when the haters are the very people you grew up idolizing?

    Lorrie Morgan is just the latest country music sensation to speak out against the state of country music today and what she had to say wasn't pretty.

    To hear what she and other country music icons have to say about today's country hits keep reading on the next page.

    10. I agree today’s country sucks it sounds more like teeny bopper s**t

    11. New country to me is about the videos, not the music sound, its like watching a super bowl, and waiting for the commercials to come on,

    12. Thanks to things like Pandora, Amazon music & iTunes you can still listen to it – the last 2 albums I purchased were Lorrie Morgan & Keith Whitley

    13. Joyce Tornio says:

    15. Jacqueline says:

    16. Totally agree with Lori Morgan. Please bring back the REAL sound of country music.

    17. Rickey Clark says:

      I hope someone brings country back It’s been gone for a long time goes back to when the song murder on music row came out.
      I never liked rock music and I really don’t like it when they label it country. Don’t need Lenard Skinner in my country

    18. I agree with Lorrie

    19. Susie Porter says:

    20. Rose Deakins says:

      I agree with y’all

    21. Rose Deakins says:

      We need more Josh Turner

    22. Kay Williams says:

      So very true. They think if they say Merle, Waylon or other artists that are True Blue Country, that they are country, what a Joke. Where are the steel guitars, where Is the story in the songs of today. Real Country Is Classy not Trashy. They say the same thing over and over and the instruments drown out the words . And the dance moves are surely not country . The women’s clothing is like a street walker. It makes Mr very sad that people loose themselves so they sell records. These women of today need to cover up. And all the so called country artists need to listen to the Real Country Artists.

    23. Terri Flood says:

      Miss you Lorrie Morgan

    24. I fully agree with lorrie morgan. I listen to lorrie alot. Cant wait for new cd. Sooo xcited.

    25. I agree with Lorrie Morgan all Way !!

    26. Amen Lori it’s not country what they sing now days more pop and rock

    27. I’ve been a fan of Lori’s and her dad for a long time. To me country was Roy Acuff, Loretta Lynn, Ernest Tubbs and so many more! I realize most are gone now but there are others that are still here and also new talent. I didn’t mind it so much when they were called Southern Rock (a genre of it’s own), but now it’s pop too. I feel like they stole our music, a huge part of our life! I feel rap kinda took over the pop and pushed them into our country.lol if that makes sense!
      There has to be a way and Lorrie has a great idea. I wouldn’t Ming going back to records, tapes or CD’s.

    28. Fran Conkel says:

      Agree Lorrie bring real country back !!!

    29. Hope you are coming back to sing missed you

    30. to each their own. more younger people listen to country than before also. Time changes on everything in life nit just music. the world damn world has changed

    31. David Brock says:

      The new country sucks.

    32. Joyce Tornio says:

      I miss the old country music . Just listen to my tapes.

    33. Yes ,we need to bring back the real country music ,steel guitars & etc

    34. If you like the old country listen to Dennis Nieser he is from Utah writes his own music give it a list love it

    35. I definitely agree with Miss Morgan it’s not Too much Country anymore and I believe it should stay Country

    36. I loveLorrie Morgan!!!!

    37. Sarah Hassan says:

    38. Thank you Billie.

    39. Anna Garland says:
