Charley Pride has passed away at age 86. The word legend is tossed around too easily, but Mr. Pride truly fit the bill. He kicked down doors of inequality and racism. He made tremendously impactful and memorable music. And he did it all with a smile. A true hero.

Maren Morris and any other artist can do whatever he/she damn well pleases. It’s not their job to fit into a genre. It’s their calling to produce what speaks to them & follow the muse wherever it leads. It is the audience that determines boundaries & it really doesn’t matter.
