This is Just Wrong
Pop-Country Singer Describes Every Album as “Getting Back to His Roots”
As a popular pop-country singer with several number one hits to his name prepares to release his newest album, he’s revealing more of himself than ever before since the previous album. “I’m getting back to my roots,” smiles the affable, handsome young man. “That is purposely vague because I listened to lots of different trendy artists at different times in my life, so you never know what you’ll get.”
He went on to say that this particular “return to his roots” will focus on his late-teens when he was really into Blink 182 and Shania Twain. The return to his roots on his last release was a return to the 90s country of his childhood. “I’m not being inauthentic when I refer to ‘my roots’ because I have a lot of options to pick from - 2Pac in my mid-teens; Garth in 5th grade; Lil Nas X in 2018 - it can go wherever it needs to based on the prevailing winds of what makes me more money.” said the refreshingly transparent superstar.
Also of note, handsomefamilymancountrysinger says that this album is his most personal yet. “It gives you a look into the psyche of a man whose last single underperformed, so his record company got antsy and asked him to dig deeper in search of something that would make more money for my person.” he laughed. “Also, I co-wrote one more song this go round, so it is literally more personal.”
While this all seems a bit jaded and flakey, blandfacialhairbro’s management assured us that the new record is an organic attempt at showing the world an unflinchingly honest view of a performer desperately hoping to add a heated salt-water pool to his family’s ski chalet.
At press time, the singer provided us with one more quote about the upcoming project: “People will see more of me in this work than ever before …because I’m wearing shorts on the inside of the album art!”

Exclusive Song Premiere / Jason Scott and the High Heat / "The Stone"
New from Jason Scott and The High Heat, FTM is proud to premiere "The Stone," from the forthcoming album Castle Rock. It's an album full of Oklahoma heartland rock that manages the difficult feat of sounding fresh and original, with big hooks and razor-sharp lyrics. It would easily be in my top 10 were it a 2021 release; you'll just have to wait till February.
Here's what Jason Scott had to say about the dark, jarring anthem:
"The Stone" is more or less a commentary on the effects of war, and the very little we offer our service men and women after they've returned home from combat long term. The suicide rate of our Veteran population is heart wrenching, and there hasn't been much success in lowering that number for years now. I think this duty falls on all of our shoulders, not just the church or government. Raising awareness with this song seemed like a way we could lend a hand.
