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.”
