if an LA country station could be fined for playing female artists back-to-back."I applaud their courage.""Smells like white male bullshit and why LONG ago I decided they cannot stop me," Musgraves wrote above her retweet, before adding,"And yet, they can play 18 dudes who sound exactly the same back to back. Makes total sense.
"I'm really sorry that in 2020, after YEARS of conversation of equal play, there are still some companies that make their stations play by these rules," she wrote."It's unfair and it's incredibly disappointing." And while the radio station's tweet was eventually deleted, that didn't stop Ballerini from posting a screenshot of it to her Instagram, alongside a lengthy caption about how"there is still inequality in airplay for women" on country radio.
"Tweets like this prove it. And it's my job to say it out loud and post about it, because of the girls moving to Nashville that are ready to outrun and outwork and outplay everyone. They deserve to know that they have the same shot as the guys moving here to do the same," Ballerini continued, before asking the industry to take a more proactive stance."Country music- We have to fix this. For us and for them. How do we do it? Let's talk.
