Thomas Rhett says writing songs for him…is really all about honesty and is a songwriter’s key to his success … “Especially as an artist, It’s tough to be vulnerable and to write songs about your life. When you put them out you go, ‘Does songs that I write, you’re really talking to a lot of the population. When you can put that into a song form that can evoke an emotion and bring people into that, I think that is songwriting 101 – to be unabashedly yourself and do things different, not because you’re just trying to be different because that’s actually who you are, I think that doesn’t go unnoticed.”
If Justin Moore could be better at something what would that be…writer, singer, bass boat fisherman…no…he says golfer…“ it’s funny, because now that I play worse I don’t get as upset. I’m just like, ‘Ehhh, whatever.’ I think I’ve lowered my expectations now. So, I don’t play near as well now but it’s almost more fun to me now.”
