re: Nashville Fights Back Against Sturgill

I think you are about 80% correct. I think there is a 20% portion of Sturgill that signed with Atlantic Records hoping to be accepted by mainstream country music (and CM radio) so he could really cash in on his music (Think Chris Stapleton and Eric Church). It didn't happen, and he is using a reasonable gripe (naming an award after Merle after he died) to voice a personal, and somewhat unreasonable, beef with "Nashville". In short, he is correct, be he is not as pure in his correctness as some would desire.

I just don't quite see it that way. I don't see his intentions of joining Atlantic being to achieve"mainstream success" but rather more resources. And, I don't think his beef is unreasonable. He said what a lot of people, inside and outside of the industry, have been thinking for a long time. He very well may have different desires within the music industry but who am I to say he does. So I really have no reason, outside of this, to believe any different. I just feel that this was a guy that was pissed with a situation and reacted, although brashly, honestly.
