it's a good song but never thought it would have this kind of staying power....especially for a song that was created on a whim to win a contest.

You don't understand the extent to which us in the black community hate the country charts for what they did, at least back then. Now I don't really give a fuck cause he obviously got paid off the controversy.

Check out his youtube channel.

He made a bunch of regular raps no one really noticed.

Had 1 about trump and one about thanos that got views.

Guess he realized his meme raps got modt views and rapped about red dead.

G
Then boom.

I read somewhere that he gifted Billy Ray a Maserati just because he said it in the song

Plus he has a deal with Wrangler jeans

So yeah he's getting paid

Jesus Christ, HOW?!?!

I mean its a very popular track thatll go down as one of the classic one hit wonders, but there have been so fucking many absurd, worldwide smash hits in the last 60 years, especially pre-internet and other electronic forms of entertainment.

Who controls and decides the order of the Hot 100 chart? This just blows my mind.

He's also being sued for $25 mil because of copyright issues with one of his songs (not the popular one).

Point is its way easier to access music than it used to be, so these new Billboard records will be like when the NFL introduced 16 game seasons.

This makes it more impressive if anything. Music is more accessible than ever and it has managed to stay #1 for so long, with huge pop acts releasing singles during the whole "summer single" period.
