(TRENDING POLITICS) – Speaking on the Tuesday edition of Just the News’ “Just the News, Not Noise” show, country singer and star John Rich blasted the country music industry for being infected by woke culture and said that he no longer has the backing of the industry.

Discussing how the industry no longer backs him thanks to his new, hit song “Progress,” Rich said: “I don’t have the backing of the country music industry really much anymore. And that’s okay. I would rather have my freedom of speech than their approval any day of the week.”
