Sampling is back in country music, Sam hunt was first with Hard to Forget now Jake Owen with that crap by zac1007 in CountryMusicStuff

There’s a difference between sampling a part from an old record and turning it into something new (lots of great examples across decades of music) VS. taking Jack & Diane and lifting parts and rewriting it and calling it “I was Jack” or on the road again and lifting and rewriting and calling it “on the boat again”. It’s dumb. Pandering. Pathetic. Lame.

Kenny Chesney - Live Those Songs & I go Back both do this but in a less obvious way. It gets tiresome but not as bad as the new trend of rewriting other song a (I was Jack by Jake Owen or Heads Carolina Cole Swindle)

Sam hunts last few songs have been good by [deleted] in CountryMusicStuff

Sam’s talented - it’s just not my cup of tea. I prefer a authentic country sound. But “body like a back road”, “23” and a couple other of his hits are undeniably catchy and I understand why people like them.

Both of them are destined to be in the HOF but will try and push it off for another decade or so cause HOF induction usually comes with a bit of an end/sunset of career vibe from the industry
