COWBOY TROY

Loco Motive

(RAYBAW/Warner Brothers Nashville)

TOBY KEITH

White Trash With Money

(Show Dog/Universal)

IN AN AGE IN WHICH TECHNOLOGY is encouraging and enabling musical, cultural and political cominglings, it is at once strange and fitting that the tension around hybridity in most every genre of American popular music would continue to exist and exert itself. Given the reality that mash-ups of all kinds have been the rule (take hip-hop) as opposed to an exception, the issue seems to be more about the exposure of the purity myths for exactly what they are--mythology.
