    I’m not a country music fan but Billy Ray Cyrus is a champion in the country scene - I am happy for his huge success with Old Town Road. Seems like a top, humble bloke.

      I agree. And I admire his decision to do all the work he has to support Lil Nas X with Old Town Road. Obviously a very good, smart, and progressive man. Huge respect for Billy Ray ❤️

    All the divisiveness in this country was frustrating me so much. When I heard the collaboration between Billy Ray and Lil Nas X bringing country and rap together immediately my heart warmed so much and the song brought me hope. Billy Ray is very humble. Much success to him.

  • @nomdeplume2213

    The fact that lil nas x wanted billy on the track from the moment he released it online and the fact that there rly is an Old Town Road in Billy's hometown is just proof the universe wanted this to happen haha and then it goes on to break every record ever. Number 1 for 17 weeks which is the longest a somg HAS EVER BEEN NUMBER 1. Just awesome to be alive to see literal music history being made.

That song truly brought me to Country Music. I use to HATE country but Old Town Road brought me to find Bobby Bones. I listen every morning and now I’m a TRUE country fan in under 5 months.

    This should be a recurring feature... Interview Billy Ray at every stage of this journey... the song is amazing, in my mind I use it as a background to the Democratic Debates, the USA that we all love..When Billy Ray sings "Got no stress I´ve been through all that" and Nas is doing the moves with a big smile on his face, it feels like the future of this great country.

    I can dance but I can't play diddly squat and can't carry a tune I'm three buckets... I know my place and you def have your talent... Still love you and your daughter.. You have talent I'll never have.... I know my place is dance even in my older years.... If there is no music what can I dance to...js
