I'm sick of reading "It's not country"."It's pop".One reviewer even said it sounded like Michael Bolton.Why does everyone want to put artists in one certain type of genre.And when I hear the word pop I think of NSYNC or Britney Spears, not Johnny Cooper.

I just listened to Johnny Cooper's new album, after I read all of this fuss about how its not tx country, and I have to say that no, its not the typical sound you hear in the tx country music scene, but its not a bad album, the songs have meaning and a good sound. I think that if it is something that he wants to do, to experiment in his musical capabilities, then he should be able to do that. Personally I am not the biggest fan of JC, but I do have a couple of his songs.. I saw him at LJT and he sounded just as good live as on his records, he's actually an artist. So he should get to express himself through his music however he wants. Red Dirt in my opinion is his best song. I think the album is fine, its kinda edgy and there are good songs on it. 4 stars.

I'm friends with both Johnny Cooper and Don Chance and they're both good guys but I don't think they know each other. I've known Don since the 1980s and I think he wrote what he honestly thinks about Follow without any personal insult intended, and I think Johnny is honestly following his creative vision without being stifled by what others think. Don is right when he said Follow is not country music, and Johnny had to know Follow is not country or even red dirt but he did what he felt was right for him. They are both doing what they are supposed to do and people need to tone down the hysteria. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you like Follow buy it. If you don't like Follow don't buy it. Lets move on.

just got follow at hastings and dude it aint u being johnny cooper is good enough you dont have to be john mayer too dont mean to trash you bro but follow is lame and i kno u can do better

Music Man, the reason Cindy responds to your posts is because she is Johnny's Mom.

I agre with that Chance guy. I listened to Follow in my friends car and it isn't very good. And hwen I took Cindys advice and looked Don Chance up on the internet i found that he named Ignition as one of the best country cds of 2007. Cindy didn't have any problems with his credebility then. I stopped going out to see JC last year when i relized that family wants 100% butt kissing 100% of the time and its good to know theres someone in town who doesnt kiss there butts.

hey music man... i have stayed on the sidelines... watching you trash JC on this site and on trnonline.com. now i am going to repeat... for the third time the question you never answered from whatif37.. your quote "I manage a band dude, lol" So now i will ask the question again here, what band do you manage? Isn't it convenient that you can go on 2 different sites without your real name and bash JC? Yes, JC has a big support team! Your obsession and delight with this one reviewers comments, well is entertaining, to say the least. So let us know, if you are Music Man Enough, what band do you manage? And thanks for all the negativity posts, it sure is getting the fan base excited! And as I can tell, helping sales (however soundscan comes out tomorrow, so we will know then)! Thank you Thank you Thank you! Now please answer the question, Mr. Music Man, that can't stand JC's new cd, what band do you manage? bawahahahahahha... too funny ... really

I agree with Music Man...this CD is awful. I used to be a fan of JC, but this new sound is complete audio anthrax. Sounds a lot like Michael Bolton. JC...get your poop together!

....hey musicman if you hate 'Follow' that much i will refund your money if you even bought it....just let me know where to send the money after you send me the receipt and then you can send me the cd after i send you the money....now quit raggin on it or do you just not have anything else to do or is this just a jealousy thang....ronsout....
