Welcome to The List,
Today we start with Jake Owen and his musical influences. He talks about how his brother introduced him to a lot of different music when he was a kid. ”He was introducing me to everybody…from Depeche Mode, Def Leppard, Van Halen. All the way to Run DMC, everything all over the map really, Otis Redding I remember him playing for me. So, he really is responsible for allowing me hearing music that I would have never heard from my parents.” But, Jake stopped on country music and the rest his history.
Morgan Wallen broke his silence since he was caught saying the “N-word” on camera. The country music singer has remained silent up until Tuesday when he posted several photos of a hand-written letter to his fans. He started off by acknowledging the unexpected success of his music, and then addressed the elephant in the room, while also noting that he will not be performing this summer.
