Country hip hop is not a new idea...and I'm not talking about about Cowboy Troy. Folks like Buck 65 and Jim White and Tim Fite have been rocking like that for a bit. I like Battlestar America (NOTE: the band now goes by B-Star) because they're really focused on the political element of what they're trying to do and it's very immediate, yet old timey feeling. Basically it calls to mind a bunch of time travelling aliens putting on a touring medicine show with an agenda for social change all around the dustbowl in the thirties. Like Steinbeck and Bradbury got busssssaaaaaay, yeah!
