Sam Hunt is scheduled to perform at the CMA Fest on Wednesday. Maybe, after reading this blog post you will tune into the event to see him. It all starts tomorrow at 8 pm on ABC. The biggest names will perform from Blake Shelton to Luke Bryan, and Carrie Underwood. I know people who are watching strictly because of Sam Hunt’s appearance though. The celebrity is having a great year.

Sam Hunt is down to earth and out of this world. His music is undeniably great. Greatness recognizes greatness. I’m interested in seeing what’s next in store for Sam Hunt. The 15 in a 30 Tour is going viral on Instagram and Twitter. Hunt’s music doesn’t appear to be slowing down; he’s going full speed ahead. I look forward to his future albums, singles, and concerts. It would be nice to see him live in concert.

I know Sam Hunt will give a phenomenal performance. The 32 year old singer originates out of Nashville, Tennessee. So, the Country singer will be right at home. He can kick off his boots and make himself comfortable. I expect the Body Like a Back Road singer to throw a few curveballs and sliders here and there. It should be fun time because of a sexy crowd. Country music lovers are some of the best fans in the world. A Country Star is only as good as his fans. What is Sam Hunt without Hunters?

I consider Take Your Time to be a classic. Did you know Take Your Time went Platinum 4 times? Body Like a Back Road went Platinum 3 times already. It’s only a matter of time before Sam Hunt wins a Grammys. There’s a Grammy with his name on it. What do you think is the best Sam Hunt song?

In a nutshell, Sam Hunt will give a phenomenal performance because he is phenomenal.

Tim McGraw Vs. Garth Brooks


You can only have one. Who do you choose between Tim McGraw and Garth Brooks? Who do you believe is better? I think Tim McGraw wins in the long term, but right now Garth Brooks is the best man for the job.

My motto is “may the best man win.” Moreover, May We All McGraw is letting Garth Brooks outshine him these days. You see Garth Brooks is greater in the short term. His Amazon commercials demonstrate his ability to generate massive appeal. Where are the McGraw advertisements, seriously? Maybe, I’m missing the placements.

For what it’s worth, Tim McGraw has won one more Grammy than Garth Brooks (3 to 2). However, Brooks has earned 22 Academy of Country Music Awards compared to McGraw’s 14. What does this say about the two country music singers? Maybe, McGraw is more mainstream and Brooks is true country.

Both celebrities deserve respect because they are legends. Is this the Luke Bryan Vs. Blake Shelton argument all over again? Luke and Blake are legends in the making. But I believe they would rather be in McGraw’s shoes than Brooks’ boots.

It is important to pay tribute to legends while they are still here. These days celebrities are becoming scarce. In 2016, we lost a plethora of legendary entertainers. Let’s appreciate who we have and show some respect. In the words of Garth Brooks, we have to appreciate them as “if tomorrow never comes.”

What’s wrong with comparing celebrities? Entertainment is about having fun and escaping from harsh realities. Besides, competition makes for better music.

Let’s go back to the question at hand. Remember, you can only have one. The answer depends on whether you want your steak rare or well done.

I don’t mind waiting for the flower to bloom, so I choose Tim McGraw. McGraw is a sensible choice for a guru, who loves Country. I’ll take my time meditating, then I’ll listen to Tim sing.

Best Blog Canadian Celebs Carrie Underwood Celeb News Celebs Celine Dion CMA Awards Come On Over Entertainment Guru Jay Luke Bryan Music pop stars Rock This Country Shania Twain Singers Updates

Why Shania Twain Is Still Phenomenal

BY: GURU JAY


The next generation of music all stars is stepping up to the plate. There should be a music World Series. Can you picture veteran Shania Twain giving commentary on her pastime?
Shania laid the tracks down for Taylor Swift to crossover. With a name like Twain you can’t write lame lyrics. That’s why “you’re still the one,” Shania!
Previously, I published an in-depth piece on Celine Dion. People like comparing and contrasting Twain and Dion. I may write a Vs. article featuring the fellow Canadians later.


Right now, it is Shania Twain’s time to shine.

She recently wrapped up her Rock This Country tour in spectacular fashion. This expert performer is always superb and never tense.
Isn’t Shania Twain still phenomenal? Can you guess her age? I’m convinced Shania, Cameron Diaz, and Jennifer Lopez discovered the Fountain of Youth and kept it secret.
Did you know that Shania Twain is the best selling female act in history? Her Come On Over album sold over 40 million copies. How much more commercially successful can you get?

There is a genuine feel to the Shania Twain listening experience. How often have we heard From This Moment On at high school graduations? Her music connects with us at every stage of life. It would be a dream come true if Shania sings at my wedding.
The number of great entertainers originating out of Canada is surprising. It’s an impressive list including Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne, Michael J. Fox, The Weeknd, Jim Carrey and more. Canada gives birth to several of the world’s most beloved entertainers.
The CMA Awards take place on November 4. Luke Bryan and Carrie Underwood will host. Both artists have expressed their admiration of Twain.

Whether she is performing or signing autographs (or both simultaneously), Shania Twain is still phenomenal.

Blake Shelton Boys Round Here Celeb News Celebs Country Singers Entertainment News Guru Jay Hollywood Stars Luke Bryan Luke Bryan Vs. Blake Shelton Music Play It Again Sangria Strip It Down The Voice

Luke Bryan Vs. Blake Shelton

BY: GURU JAY

  
Right now, the two biggest names in country music are Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton. Who has the edge? Who is the best singer?
Shelton started singing professionally in 2001, while Bryan began in 2007. As a result, The Voice coach has recorded 9 studio albums; and, the Play It Again artist only has 5 to his credit. I believe experience and output play major parts in determining who is better.
My cousins follow Blake Shelton on social media. I frequently find his posts on their profiles. Without question, the Oklahoman’s music permeates across the country via Internet.
Who remembers radio? Nowadays, streaming music is popular. 
You rarely find a Luke Bryan Vs. Blake Shelton post because they are amicable. They have even performed on stage together. Still, Bryan and Shelton deal in a competitive business. There is only one top dog in every genre.

Did you know that they are both the same age? However, standing at 6’5”, Blake has a height advantage over the 6’0” Luke. I like Luke’s lyrics better, but Blake carries a catchier tune.

Sometimes, Shelton’s songs seem silly because he tries to appeal to a young demographic. I’m all for mainstream, but not at the expense of authenticity. Music should represent real life.
Both guys make awesome music. Moreover, they sound quite similar. While Luke Bryan is a hotter brand, Blake Shelton is more durable.
In entertainment, things can change in a blink of an eye. One minute celebrities are hot topics, the next second they are Dancing with the Washed-Up Has-Beens. That’s why durability is more precious than trends.

Have you seen the Strip It Down video yet? Watch it here, now.

  
I believe it’s a close call but Luke Bryan wins. Yes, Blake benefits from The Voice. But his extra commitments give Luke the edge.
