Country singer Riley Green has released his new album, "Ain't My Last Rodeo," which features his rendition of Tim McGraw's under-appreciated deep cut from 2015, "Damn Country Music." Despite not being sent to radio, Green chose to include the song on his album as the opening track. It remains to be seen if he will push the ballad with repetitive use of the word "damn" for maximum airplay. The album includes collaborations with Luke Combs and Jelly Roll. Green describes the album as a reflection of the grind and challenges of being on the road and away from home. However, he jokes that his busy schedule makes it difficult for him to settle down and find a love life.

Green will be touring with Tracy Lawrence in 2024. Despite the challenges, Green expresses his gratitude for being able to tour with his heroes and pursue his passion for country music. In a personal note, Green reveals that he recently got a dog, indicating his progress in finding companionship. In terms of the top country songs of 2023, the list is determined by airplay charts, sales data, and streaming numbers, as well as staff and reader opinion. The article also mentions that Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have put their private island estate in the Bahamas on the market for $35 million. The couple purchased the island in 2003 but did not move into their home there until 2012.
