The List, for Friday, April 23rd 2021

Welcome to The List,

 

Today a couple Country Music Superstars talk about their musical influences and how special the music is…we start with Jake Owen and his musical influences started in southern rock and his first CD? “I remember the first album I bought on CD, was the ‘Shake Your Money Maker’ Black Crowes record.  What I loved about it, was growing up in Florida..you know Florida is famous for Tom Petty, Lynyrd Skynrd, I’ve loved that southern rock I always did and so to me Black Crowes had that influence of southern rock.”

 Dylan Scott talks about his new single ‘Nobody’ he says he knew the song was special the moment he wrote it but why? “There’s nothing to crazy about it, it’s a real simple lyrical song.  The melody was catchy and so I felt really good about it from the beginning. Apparently, it’s turned out to be what I thought it was going to be.”

 After Blake and Gwen get married don’t expect to see much of them in the spotlight.  The Star Magazine reports that they’re looking at less work.  They don’t want to run the risk of burnout…and speaking of Blake, Snoop Dogg who is the Mega Mentor on this season of “The Voice” tell Entertainment Tonight that he and Blake may record a song together once this season of “The Voice” ends.

 The Academy Awards will not have a host this year. Fifteen Hollywood A-listers will work as presenters…and you can watch it Sunday at 7 on ABC…The Academy Awards means it time for the Razzie’s as well, honoring the worst in film, are going to be announced on Saturday night. Here at the nominees
