People need to stop playing games.

That's two famous people passing from Covid-19 in the past two days.

Take this seriously and do what the doctors/scientists are saying to do.

R.I.P.

[Paul1970]

This thread needs to be a sticky.

Charlie Pride was on the same level as Merle Haggard/Conway Twitty/Willie Nelson.

He was a Country superstar.

Darius Rucker Lil Nas X and them need to recognize his contributions publicly and loudly

them who?? who them other than Darius Rucker and Cowboy troy (forgot him..that means with Prides death 33% of the black artists in country music died)

Rucker,NasX and Cowboy Troy better do just that...

Why do ya'll keep bringing up nas x?

5 REASONS CACS IN COUNTRY MUSIC DO NOT RECOGNISE LIL NAS X:

1. He's black
2. He's out gay
3. He's black
4. He's black AND out gay
5. He's black

note no high level black females in country...hell no non white women PERIOD in country...notice how country white women ain't saying shit about that??

 

[CoTtOnMoUf]

Damn man, if you're black or not on a VIP list, you can't get that special life saving treatment that trump, guliani and his cronies get. Herman Caine supported trump but he couldn't get that cocktail that makes you new again in a matter of hours so Herman had to die. This special treatment shit is bullshit.

Rest in peace, Charlie Pride.

 

[g0nbad real bad]

My momma raised us listening to him on 8 track while she cleaned the house. I was able to take her to see him in concert at the casino a few years ago.
