Garth Brooks believes the heart of country music is the same as the heart of America.
The country superstar recently shared that he's still "100 percent proud of this country" as the nation approaches its 250th anniversary. Brooks says country music was built by and for ordinary people — hard-working families, dreamers, and everyday Americans striving to create a better future.
For decades, his songs have celebrated those values, and he believes they remain just as important today. According to Brooks, as long as America continues to be a place where people can pursue their dreams and build a life for their families, the spirit that inspired country music will never fade.
It's a message of pride, gratitude, and faith in the people who have always been the backbone of both country music and the nation itself.
