Never been to Tennessee but I guess that's all they play there. The radio stations are all country, talk shows, or gospel. No hip hop, rock, R&B, jazz...nothing. Person I knew was telling me about it, but maybe things have changed in the last 15ish years.

I grew up in MO and where i lived we could get 4 different country stations and a pop station (that also played a bunch of country.) it wasn't until my senior year of high school where you could get a rock station, which was actually cool bc they had a couple college kid DJs that played some cool stuff.

I wouldn't have listened to any hip hop, R&B, jazz or punk without the internet. my family side eyes me if I happen to listen to any of those genres when I'm back home.
