Still pretty predictable results. Does not mean they are the best results though.

Aside from some of his songs I have never cared for Keith Urban tbh. I dislike a lot more from him than I like.

Keith Urban has had a great career in country music. He was born in New Zealand, but moved to the US in 1992 to pursue country music. Keith racked up an impressive 38 top 10 hits in a row from 2000 to 2017 and has had quite a few major hits. I really respect that he didn't stoop down to bro-country to get success in its heyday and instead went on his own path (albeit a path that led him to Graffiti U, so...  ). HeyHeyHey loses a #1 here and 4 other people lose a top 10. |

This next artist was the most polarizing in the entire rankdown, and it's not who you think (or it might be, idk)

I really respect Keith because for 10-15 years he really pushed the boundaries of country pop but in a way that felt unique and different.
Lately he’s way too stale, but his albums have always been good and experimental. I really respect his mark on the genre.

Eric Church has a very passionate fanbase, built up through years of going against the grain and being an "outlaw" of sorts. He debuted in 2006 and had respectable success until he really broke out in the early 2010s, with hits like "Drink In my Hand", "Springsteen", "Give Me Back My Hometown", and more. While his success has subsided a bit in recent years, he still has the ability to smash with the right song. 7 people lose a top 10, with gardyfan losing a #1. All I'm wondering is why Darkest Hour didn't put Eric at #1 since he literally named himself after him. |

I like Eric Church and he definitely has made a name for himself.
He doesn’t stack up with the top half of Icons on this list though, other than as an entertainer.
I imagine he will be a songwriter for other artists when his singing career fades.

I have such a hit-or-miss relationship with Eric Church. Generally I can appreciate what he does even in songs I don't care for as much - when he does hit though, he hits HARD for me.

Definitely hit or miss with Eric Church, and the last few years have pretty much all been MISSES.

Dierks Bentley is the third 2010s male A-lister to go out tonight. He has been around since 2003, when he scored a #1 with his debut single "What Was I Thinkin'". I really like his sense of humor and I LOVE a lot of his songs, not to mention the fact that he actually brings female artists on tour with him (which other country males have only just started to do). fearlessarrow loses his #4 and a couple more lose a top 10. |

Is the reason why lady𝓐fan not revealing #21 because he's too devastated with Lady A's exit from the RD? Lady A were great the first two albums then things started getting a bit shaky from that point onwards. Overall I still generally like them though. |
