If Thomas Rhett Didn't Have A Cute Family, He Wouldn't Be Famous

And no, you can't change my mind

If Thomas Rhett Didn't Have A Cute Family, He Wouldn't Be Famous

If you're an avid country music listener then you know who Thomas Rhett is. Even if you aren't a huge country music person, chances are, you probably still know who Thomas Rhett is. I'm just going to take one for the team - he is incredibly overrated and the only reason he is as famous as he is because he has a cute family.

Yes, I did just say that.

Thomas Rhett released his first album in 2010, but it wasn't until he released the song "Die a Happy Man" in 2015 did he start to gain stardom. Now, "Die a Happy Man" was a cute song that was written about and for his wife. The music video was even cuter. People, especially what I like to call "locals" (locals is just another way of saying bandwagoners), immediately started hyping them up. I saw at least five tweets a day talking about how cute TR and his wife were.

But it got old, super fast.

Since then, Thomas and his wife had adopted a baby and had a baby. Which again, they're absolutely adorable. But I almost feel like Thomas knows how much attention and praise his family gets...so he uses it to his advantage. Almost every song he releases is about his wife/family and he makes sure that fans know that what the song is about. And guess what, he just recently released a new song and...he's advertising it as a song about his wife.

Now, I'm not saying that these songs aren't genuine. I 100% believe that they are. But it's starting to feel like a schtick. I think that TR has finally found what makes him successful and he doesn't want to let go of it. I don't think it's a coincidence that he became super famous because of a song about his wife and now those are the only type of songs he releases.

I mean, think about it, he has a mediocre voice. He isn't the worst singer in country music, but he's also not the best. All of his songs are bland and sound the same. If he didn't have the cute family that he did, I guarantee that people wouldn't pay as much attention to him as they do.

And, that's just fact.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
