Because they get along and are friends and she wants too? What's the problem with her working with Jason Aldean?He's a terrible singer and a terrible artist. This doesn't answer raylatch's question, though. That's your problem with them working together, but objectively speaking there isn't a problem with them collaborating.

Except he’s really not. Maybe that’s just your opinion. Of course it's just my opinion. I posted a statement on a messageboard, so that goes without saying, no? This has been pointed out before, but you rarely ever come in to the country forum to post opinions and whenever you do, it’s like this: never anything positive. You always have to have something to nitpick or complain about, and even when you DO have something positive to say, it’s always laced with backdoor negativity. Why is that? Jason Aldean is not the most terrible artist in this genre, and trust me, he’s not the most terrible person in this genre either. (All you gotta do is look to Chase “I Faked COVID-19 To Promote My Terrible, Bland, Tropey Song” Rice.) Jason is less than ideal as Carrie’s duet partner, but if it’s what will get her back on country radio while we all wait patiently for CU9, then that’s just what I’ll take. And if it’s anything like DYWS (my favorite Aldean song thanks to Kelly), then this song will be incredible, ESPECIALLY with Carrie in the guest’s seat. It’s genius on her part and she knows this, and THAT is why she is working with him, as much as it royally displeases you.

I agree with the overall sentiment that there's no reason to fly over this forum just to drop negativity bombs every couple weeks. But Jason doesn't deserve even a modicum of character defense It is objectively true that he is not the most terrible person, but he has still been a very bad boy at various points in his career, lmao

Carrie Underwood, ya know? You have to admit that Jason is at least 1/16 better by comparison, lol

It’s genius on her part and she knows this, and THAT is why she is working with him, as much as it royally displeases you. While jenglisbe and I butt heads a lot, I have to come to his defense here. Not sure why he is getting railed over his comment. Just to have some background, I checked out the threads of Jason's last two singles. They are filled with, "this is garbage," "this sucks," etc. And rightfully so!!! I am not a fan of his music much either. So why does jenglisbe get push back for not loving this collaboration? Doesn't it make sense why a Carrie fan might not be thrilled she's doing a song with a guy who's music at best is mediocre? On top of that, it is pretty well known Aldean cheated on his wife. He also made a comment about female singers all sounding the same. So yeah, he isn't THE WORST human being, but is that what it would take for it to be okay for someone to say they're not too excited about this or to question why Carrie would work with them? And I will make a prediction to prove my point. When this song is released, I say most everyone here will enjoy Carrie's part of it and not Jason's... therefore proving the case of wondering why Carrie would duet with him.

I don't think we need to call out Jason Aldean for the kind of person he is in this case, it's not really our business to judge him as a human being.
But we can talk about the impact this guy has had in country music: even though he does have some very good singles, let's not forget that Jason Aldean is responsible for breaking the doors open to hip hop (Dirt Road Anthem), hard rock (She's Country) and R&B (Burnin it Down) in country music.
What concerns me the most is that many songs on Aldean's catalog objectify women a lot. I don't want to say that he's the worst artist and that he has necessarily released the most offensive songs. But obviously he has contributed a lot to the "bro country" culture, and his impact on the country music industry can't be understated.
So it's kind of disappointing for me to see people like Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert and Kelsea Ballerini releasing songs with Aldean.
On a side note, I don't get the hate towards Aldean's last two singles, which were both solid songs in my opinion.

Also I don’t recall anyone ever questioning Miranda or Kelly’s integrity for recording collabs with Jason? People are sooooo weird on this site when it comes to Carrie. Let her score a smash and go to sleep.

Because I think a lot of country music - and especially the industry itself - is terrible right now, and has been for awhile.

Let her score a smash and go to sleep. I don’t see anyone questioning her integrity. Just wishing she has a better duet partner (mainly for VOCAL reasons). That’s allowed here, kiddo. This isn’t a Carrie fan board. Most people love her (including me) but that doesn’t mean we love everything about her. Also, usually people we like more, we want the best for.

I literally get tired of these conversations that don’t have anything to do with the song. I think if people can’t talk about said song in the thread and are being negative to others or said artist then they need to be banned. We’re on here to talk about the music not about the artists personal lives. Let’s please get back to talking about the music people please! You all sound like the teenage kids I work with and I’m in my 40’s.

The post you are quoting isn't even addressing you first of all. Second of all it is perfectly okay to say you don't like an artists voice, plenty of artists here have been criticized and plenty more still will. Lastly, there is nothing wrong with matty messaging you, now it is wrong if it was nasty but it's better for you two to talk out your differences in private messages then derailing this thread. But please calm down as your post makes you sound very pissed.

Just irritated that a moderator had literally just told everyone to keep to the song and I stated my said opinion not calling out anyone in particular and get a message from said person saying if I didn’t like their posts I need to leave the board.

And even if it wasn't, talking about someone's vocals IS TALKING ABOUT THE SONG. My goodness. And I didn't say to leave this forum. I said that if you don't like that this board talks about a wide variety of things (including not everything related to the song) then maybe this isn't the forum for you. If you think that is nasty, I'm not sure what to tell you. With that said, we have derailed this thread enough. If you want to respond more, please send it via PM.

I added some updates I know about this song on first post, added in single cover at the very top (found that on Jason's iTunes NZ page) and the song's length is 3 mins, 32 seconds long. Added in songwriters, still waiting on audio which should be later tonight once song is released on iTunes.

I am kinda annoyed by the programmed percussion during the verses but aside from that I'll echo that I'm really impressed with this. The chemistry between the two is actually off the charts

This sounds pretty good! "Drowns the Whiskey" was great and I like "Don't You Wanna Stay" too so I had higher expectations than I would for this than for Jason Aldean's solo singles (which he doesn't meet pretty often but that's besides the point).
Since "Blame It On You" had a slower climb than you would expect from a Jason Aldean single, it makes sense for him to go for fresh material. With the fresh material being a duet with one of the top artists in the genre, that's even better. For Carrie, it's probably a nice way to keep her voice on the radio after an underwhelming era radio-wise. So I can only assume it's a win-win situation for the artists involved.

This will be a really solid hit. Easy #1 for both of ‘em, and everything about it works. I’m pleasantly surprised.
