I think he's right, but my opinion won't count because I wasn't born and raised in Houston either

[chaincombo]

What part do you specifically think he right about?
Also not from houston

[cheerspinkears]

I was born and raised in Houston and can say that he’s wrong lmao. Houston is home to one of the biggest Rodeos/Live Stock shows in the world. It’s a huge part of growing up there. I’ve gone every year since I was born, and even took my 6 year old cousin to compete in something called Mutton Bustin’ last year (look it up lol I promise you’ll laugh your ass off

thank you. we don't have to keep the dial on 93Q to say that country's in our blood. it's in every facet of our culture even if you don't engage with the music (and admittedly i don't! but i can two-step with the best of them because we learned how to do so in elementary school lmao).

Learning the Boot Scootin’ Boogie and Achey Breaky Heart in PE class will always be a core memory😂

That’s the thing I don’t think ppl get about Texan identity.

[calliope1975]

We learned the Cotton Eye Joe in PE and every song that mentioned Texas in Music and it was a decade before that song came out. Texas is a special breed of state.

And we had to take Texas history in elementary/jr high and what was that yellow rose of texas ish in 4th grade. There was a lot of Texan identify programming in school and then out of school you get the actual culture.

[calliope1975]

I was recently going through old school stuff my parents have kept and there's a whole report on Texas. Another one on the wildflowers of Texas. And more! All from elementary and middle school.

Texas has a special kind of state indoctrination. Every time I explain to people outside of TX what a mum is, a homecoming queen gets a crown.

[marvelhill]

I remember them them being real mum flowers and maybe some ribbon accoutrement. I saw a Tik tok of them being $300 monstrosities like what oml

[juunanagou18]

an aside, but this reminds me of when another person and i were describing growing up and eating big ole dill pickles with popcorn at the movies, and the chat was like "?????"

and that's when i learned that was, uh, not a thing outside of texas.

damn good snack tho.

She literally commented on how unwelcome and uncomfortable that crowd made her when she performed 'Daddy Issues' with the 'Chicks' at the CMAs.

Did she say those exact words? No. But Anyone paying attention to it at the time knew exactly what she was referring to. I mean, you can even watch the performance for yourself. Even the people on camera during it didn't look that "enthusiastic" about "her" being there.

Why should she have to bow down and kiss the rings of the country music industry? Especially when it is racist as fuck.

[marvelhill]

No as a Texan he’s wrong. And I bet he wouldn’t have a problem with a white guy doing doing slab or screw
