Brantley Gilbert teamed up with Hardy and Toby Keith for "The Worst Country Song of All Time." It isn't actually… the track is a rowdy, tongue-in-cheek tune that finds Gilbert and Hardy playfully slamming a series of country clichés; beer, honky-tonk women, fishing, sweet tea, dirt roads, trucks and the American flag are among the things they hate. Instead, they're loving on the city lifestyle, traffic jams, minivans, Kim Jong-un and Putin.
Keith continues the sarcastic fun on the bridge when he declares: I'm too good for Solo cups Your mama's homemade fried chicken sucks
Gilbert and Hardy co-penned the song with Hunter Phelps and Will Weatherly during a songwriters' retreat in Texas, after Hardy threw out the title. According to Gilbert, Hardy told them, "Guys, I know this is crazy, but I had a title I put down in my phone: "The Worst Country Song of All Time."' At first they all laughed thinking it was a joke, but then the four writers started throwing out lines they thought were funny. The next thing they knew, they'd got the song written.
