Took the words out of my mouth. Modern country music just panders to the stereotypical country music demographic. It's the same problem I have with modern mainstream rap and Hip Hop. The subject matter is just so genre specific, and you can tell they're usually written by outside music writers who are far removed from the material, but just play the same stereotypes over and over. I especially HATE fake anthems of Patriotism, and their "If you're not like us, you're not American" political subtexts some of the real crap has.
