Who says white people have no culture? I’ll admit, I’ve never been a big strip club guy. Just never really been my scene, because I always just end up feeling more awkward and sad after I walk in. But obviously some people like them, so hey, more power to them. Some people, apparently, including HARDY and Lainey Wilson. The Queen of Bell Bottom Country recently appeared on Theo Von’s podcast, This Past Weekend, where she recalled a time when she ended up an adult ballet with her then-tourmate…and it turns out, the strip club they went to had an interesting promotion. According to Lainey, it was at the end of the tour when HARDY took her to a strip club in Huntsville, Alabama called Uncle Buck’s Boobie Bungalow. But unfortunately, they missed out on the main event: Biscuits and gravy wrasslin’. “HARDY took me and some of my crew to a strip club in Huntsville, and they have biscuits and gravy night… He gave me 100 ones and was like, ‘Have fun.’ It wasn’t biscuits and gravy night that night, this was like a Friday night or something.” But apparently when they told Lainey and her party to come back for biscuits and gravy night, she misunderstood what they meant: “Supposedly, I don’t know if this is true or not, they were like, ‘Y’all gotta come back for biscuits and gravy night.’ And I thought, ‘Oh, that’s nice, sit around eating some biscuits and gravy.’ Nah, they’re rolling around in the gravy and people are throwing the biscuits.” Sure enough, that’s exactly what it was: Biscuits and gravy wrestling. (Or “wrasslin,” as they advertise it). You can see the flyer here, which promises that “8 sexy ladies from all 4 clubs will be competing for braggin’ rights and the title belt.” I love the south. I was also able to find a comment from someone who claims to have worked the event in the past, and said they use instant white gravy that’s mixed in five gallon buckets with hot tap water from the sink. He also claims that the smell was “god awful,” so if you’re planning on hitting up biscuits and gravy night, just be aware that it might not be as good as what your mama makes… Honestly though, seems like a waste of good biscuits and gravy. This past Friday, Lainey released the deluxe edition of her Whirlwind album, which includes five new songs in “Bell Bottoms Up,” “King Ranch, King George, King James,” “Yesterday, All Day, Every Day,” “Peace, Love, and Cowboys” and Wilson’s current single, “Somewhere Over Laredo.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lainey Wilson (@laineywilson) Of course, the Louisiana native has truly had a whirlwind last few years, becoming one of the prominent mainstream faces of country music, after building her career on great records like Sayin’ What I’m Thinkin’, Bell Bottom Country and more. She grew up full immersed in the country lifestyle in small town Louisiana, the daughter of a farmer, and that influence is very prominent in all of her music still to this day. She often talks about how her upbringing influenced her, and it’s clear how much those values mean to her now and how she has carried them all of these years. She’s proud of that, as she should be, and those themes are on full display in the song “King Ranch, King George, King James,” which was written by Lainey’s frequent collaborators Trannie Anderson, Dallas Wilson and Chase McGill. The lyrics find her reflecting on how her “four-door, George, and Jesus” get her through the good and bad times in life, and I love the play on words and how she uses the “King” names in all three phrases, with each having a significant role in her life, to tie it all together: “I could go out without makeup Hell, I’d love to lose my phone I could go stone-cold sober Even though I like a drink and a little smoke I can pack light, like a cowboy A set of strings and a change of clothes But there’s a few things you won’t catch me Without when I hit the road They get me where I’m going Keep these soles on solid ground From these leather seats to my leather boots To that gold-leaf leather-bound Got a ride back home, a Troubadour song And a dashboard prayer to pray I’m rolling deep with royalty King Ranch, King George, King James” If it wasn’t to authentic and true to her, it could almost be a little cheesy and cliché… but the simplicity in the message is so relatable, especially if you grew up like Lainey in any way, and it’s a creative title that I can’t believe hasn’t already been written in country music. I mean, it’s probably the most “country” song title I’ve seen this year. Of course, King Ranch is a reference to her truck, King George is obviously about Mr. George Strait, and the King James Bible is the version that many of us grew up learning and reading, and it’s clearly still a very important aspect of Lainey’s life. They’re an incredible trifecta, and I really don’t think you need anything more to have a content and happy life… Lainey got this one right, and I was surprised to find she wasn’t a co-writer on it because it’s just so her. It’s easily my favorite off the deluxe addition, and you can listen to here: “King Ranch, King George, King James” WHIRLWIND DELUXE TRACK LIST: 1. Keep Up With Jones 2. Country’s Cool Again 3.

You and everybody else, BigX. Rapper BigXthaPlug released his “country-inspired” album I Hope You’re Happy this past Friday, which features a number of different country artists like Ella Langley, Jelly Roll, Shaboozey, Bailey Zimmerman and Luke Combs. His collab with Bailey Zimmerman, “All The Way,” topped the country airplay charts, and cracked the Top 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it a crossover hit there. And while there has been some criticism from country traditionalists about a rapper “going country,” and releasing a so-called “country album,” this is more of a collaborations project that features country artists singing the choruses of rap songs. It’s not a country album, and I don’t think it’s really trying to be. We’ve seen EDM DJs like Diplo and Audien do similar projects in the past. His song with Ella “Hell At Night” was easily one of the fan-favorites, and in an interview with Amber Anderson and Kelly Sutton on Amazon’s Country Heat Weekly podcast, he talked about working with her and how he didn’t know who she was until they met in person. Of course, Ella has had a huge year in the country music industry and has become one of the most prominent mainstream young artists, winning big awards and scoring huge radio hits. Although, I’m sure those who listen to BigX and are much more into rap probably don’t know her music as much. So it was really funny to hear him talk about meeting her for the first time, and he admitted to the hosts that it was the first time he “fell in love with a person the first day,” and that he has a huge crush on her now: “Ella Langley, I didn’t know who she was at the time. She comes walking up to me, it was like a light like this [makes wide open arms gesture], I felt like was around her. And she was just walking and her hair was just… it was like a movie. I’ve never fell in love with a person the first day, I was in love. I was in love. I have a crush on Ella Langley. I will say that right now, I do.” The guys love Miss Ella, and while she’s taking a break from touring at least for this month, I’m sure he’ll only fall more in love once he sees her perform live… @user28292020137437 Describes a lot of usss #ellalangley #countrymusic #bigxthaplug #hellatnight #foryoupage ♬ original sound – Dalton J.

Running it back. Cross Canadian Ragweed is making a tradition out of their legendary reunion show in the town that kick-started their entire career: Stillwater, Oklahoma. In April, one of the biggest – if not the biggest – red dirt reunions of all time. Cross Canadian Ragweed made their triumphant return to the stage after a 15-year hiatus for their 4-night run of “The Boys From Oklahoma” shows at Boone Pickens Stadium. Cross Canadian Ragweed was a cornerstone band of the Red Dirt music movement, forming in Stillwater, Oklahoma, in the mid-1990s, featuring members such as Cody Canada, Grady Cross, Randy Ragsdale, and Jeremy Plato. Ragweed took off like a rocket ship with the release of their 1998 debut album, Carney. CCR went on to release seven studio albums and three live albums, but sadly disbanded in 2010. Red Dirt fans were beyond heartbroken when the group broke up, and from a conversation with Cody Canada, it seemed there was no way in hell they would get back together, comparing their breakup to a divorce. However, time heals all wounds, and eventually, Cody Canada felt like the stars were aligning for them to give it another go and get the band back together. Canada explained on the Whiskey Riff Raff podcast: “I was ready to put down that discomfort. It wasn’t a great breakup, but nobody died… nobody killed anybody. We were just overworked at 30 years old with brand new babies on the ground. We should have said nicer things, and I’m a very stubborn person, and so are the rest of the guys. So we just didn’t talk for 15 years. We started the ball rolling very secretively. Our booking agent and our accountant got together with the other two guys and said, ‘What do you all think?’ And one of the other guys said, ‘I’ve been sober for 10 years waiting for this.’ That’s a green light. So we all signed NDA’s.. I 100% admit that I can’t keep my mouth shut when I’m excited about something. So we signed NDA’s and made it a surprise, and we slowly started unveiling it.” The boys from Ragweed admitted they were surprised that shows kept selling out, and more shows continued to be added, extending the one-night event to a four-night event. When it came time for the men to reunite on stage, all the band members agreed that it felt like no time had passed. Randy Ragsdale, drums, described it as: “Like wearing an old pair of shoes. It felt very natural again. It was a big stage, but we stayed close like we always did.” Jeremy Plato, bass, echoed the feeling: “It brought back that old time feelin’, getting back to the fun part of what we did. It felt like we never stopped.”  Fans loved the event in Stillwater so much that they decided to keep the “lovefest” going and brought another killer lineup to Baylor’s McLane Stadium for a Texas Encore version of “The Boys From Oklahoma.” The stadium was packed with more than 35,000 people, and country music fans sang along to Texas and red dirt music all night long. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Turnpike Troubadours (@turnpiketroubadours) To close out the night, Cody Canada shared with the crowd that this set of five reunion shows was not the end of Ragweed’s run, sharing some very exciting news. Before Cody Canada performed the final song of the night, he and Evan Felker asked the crowd if they would come to more events like this. “I just want to ask you one thing. Would you do this again with us?” Of course, the audience roared with applause. Evan Felker then takes the microphone: “I guess we’ll see you guys in Stillwater next year, huh?” Cody Canada then says into the mic: “Why don’t we just do a repeat performance, and we’ll see you guys in Stillwater, in let’s say… April. Evan would like that very much, so that means we’re gonna do it. How ’bout this? We’ll see y’all next year! Be good, be nice, see y’all down the line.”  @nikihodges2 #crosscanadianragweed #mclanestadium #wacotx ♬ original sound – Niki Hodges Shortly after the Texas Encore in Waco, Texas, Rolling Stone published an article confirming what Cody Canada and Evan Felker from the Turnpike Troubadours said on stage. Canada said: “Of course, we will go back to Stillwater. If we sold that many tickets, and had that much fun, and it was that peaceful, then we should keep doing it over and over again. And, it’s our home.” “The Boys From Oklahoma” concert heads back to Stillwater’s Boone Pickens Stadium on Saturday, April 11, 2026. Round 2 of the event will fall during Red Dirt Music Week (April 7-13), a newly instated celebration instituted by Stillwater Mayor William H. Joyce earlier this year. The 2026 rendition of “The Boys From Oklahoma” features another stellar group of Oklahoma and Texas-based artists, as Cross Canadian Ragweed has always loved to share he stage with their friends. “For a lot of our friends to be there with us…means the world. We have always shared the stage, and we always will.” Evan Felker wasn’t kidding that you’d see Turnpike Troubadours back in Stillwater next spring, and joining them are Wyatt Flores (a Stillwater native), Shane Smith & The Saints, and The Great Divide. Of course, the “lovefest” lineup will conclude with Cross Canadian Ragweed in the headlining slot. As the legendary band gears up for the second round of this epic event, the band members reflect on what this means to them. Randy Ragsdale touched many with his words for why he continues to play with the beloved group: “For me, this is a way to honor my son first off. He wanted the band to be together and didn’t understand why we weren’t. He watched us on the iPad all the time. His passing right before the first show…it was an honor to him. Second, it was a dream come true for me. I didn’t think this would happen again. I am completely honored to be able to do it again.” Cody Canada has a great deal of gratitude and love for the men who make up Cross Canadian Ragweed and is beyond thankful that they were able to put their differences aside and join forces again. However, as the event enters its second year, Canada has a strong affinity for the town where the group started: Stillwater, Oklahoma. “I grew up in Yukon, but if it weren’t for Stillwater, I wouldn’t have anything. Not my wife, my kids, or my career. For the shows to be there, to be that size, that easy…that shows me that Stillwater and Ragweed was really meant for each other.” I had the honor of attending last year’s event, and as an alumnus of Oklahoma State, the air has never felt more electric in Stillwater. The night was filled with love, cold beer, and incredible talent. And many other attendees would agree. If you didn’t get the chance to attend last year, the 2026 show should be added to your bucket list. And for the fans hoping to repeat the magic created in Boone Pickens… I’ll hopefully see y’all there. Long live Cross Canadian Ragweed.
