The Current Poop of Mainstream Country Radio: September '25

 A poop emoji is negative, a strike thru is positive, an asterisk denotes a song where the good attributes and the bad are dead even. An overall score and brief summary are below the chart. 

The current Poop Rating of the Mediabase Top 20 is (-17) overall which is a 6 point drop from our last edition in June. Nice to see a token woman in there! The best song on the charts is Parker McCollum’s “What Kinda Man.” The worst is easily Chase Matthew’s “Darlin’.” If it weren’t the worst, Parmalee’s “Cowgirl” would easily be the bottom of the barrel.  I could barely tolerate listening through the chorus of either one. Let’s hope for better next time!

*yes, my rating of the Luke/Bailey collab dropped a lot since June

The Current Poop of Mainstream Country Radio: June '25

 A poop emoji is negative, a strike thru is positive, an asterisk denotes a song where the good attributes and the bad are dead even. An overall score and brief summary are below the chart. 

The current Poop Rating of the Mediabase Top 20 is (-11) overall which is a 3 point drop from our last edition in March. My favorite of the bunch is Ella Langley's "Weren't For the Wind." Sam Hunt says 'don't call it a comeback' and gives us the garbage we expect from him with "Country House." Aside from Sam Hunt and Josh Ross, everything's mostly mid as hell, even the good songs.
