I Have A Huge Chip On My

I'm Not A Guy Who Can Go In And Go, "hey, Are We Doing Right Or Wrong?" I Just Do It. And Whatever It Is, It Is.

I've Always Thought, It's The Artist That Write The Songs And Make The Records. And It's Our Responsibility To Set The Tone For What's Happening In The Industry. And I Take That Seriously.

When I First Started, You Could Go To A College Campus And It Was Not Cool To Wear A Country Artist's Shirt On Campus. It Was Taboo, And There Was A Stigma Involved. In The Time From Then Till Now, I'm Amazed At How Much Things Have Changed. It's Young Now, It's Cool, It's Hip

Funny How A Melody Sounds Like A Memory.

If I Was Concerned About My Legacy, There’s No Way I Would Ever Sit There [and Be A Reality-show Judge]. Once Your Career Becomes About Some¬thing Other Than The Music, Then That’s What It Is. I’ll Never Make That Mistake.
