They appeal to "country" fans like myself who can't stand actual country music. (Admittedly so). The Garth Brooks, Merl Haggert type shite that you older folks came up on for instance. Garth Brooks is the sole reason I hated country until I was about 24. "And the thunder roles...", absolutely horse shite and a terrible song from my youth. Pretty much the lone song that always made me hate country...And yet it's one of the "legendary" country songs. Country has evolved to more of a rock and rap sound than actual country. Probably why I actually like it these days. Your old country music is dead man, much like rock and roll died. Welcome to the new school man, where mfer's wear flat bills backwards.
