With almost 2 decades of a successful career in the music industry, Chris Young is grateful for it all.<\/p>\n
The good and the bad.<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, I mean, I\u2019m incredibly grateful for anybody that\u2019s followed my music, bought my music, streamed my music, bought a ticket, told me they liked something I did. Like, did anything and everything. You\u2019re not supposed to have a 17-year career in music, and I\u2019m not done yet. So it\u2019s pretty wild. You know, I signed my record deal when I was 20. So sometimes it\u2019s just kind of tough to wrap my head around. But the biggest thing I can say is I\u2019m just really grateful that I\u2019ve been around this long and also really happy that it has not been a difficult 17 years there\u2019s moments that have been difficult, but it\u2019s been pretty damn awesome.\u201c<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Chris\u2019 big break was when he won Season 4 of Nashville Star on USA Network. He then signed a record deal with RCA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With almost 2 decades of a successful career in the music industry, Chris Young is grateful for it all.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":27358,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[42,4585],"class_list":["post-34189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-chris-young","tag-nashville-star"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-14 07:17:02","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country929.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2023\/04\/chris-young-grateful-for-his-career\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34189","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34189"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34189\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34190,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34189\/revisions\/34190"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34189"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34189"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34189"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
