Zach Bryan vented online recently after finding out his new song “Pink Skies” was being pushed on pop radio.<\/p>\n
Now he’s softened his stance after his label reportedly said they weren’t really pushing it as a pop “single” . . . just a “song” that pop stations could “showcase” if they wanted to.<\/p>\n
He joked online that he shouldn’t have assumed people were conspiring against him.<\/p>\n
“Sorry for cursing so much earlier. It was a misunderstanding . . . I’ve been watching too much ‘House of Cards’ on my time off.”<\/p>\n

Another star who can relate to this type of thing is Randy Travis.<\/p>\n
He was once shocked to find out HE was a “pop” star.<\/p>\n
His album “Old 8 by 10” shot to the top of “Billboard’s” country albums chart in 1988 and was so popular, it made the pop chart too.<\/p>\n
He talked about it in his autobiography, “Forever and Ever, Amen”, and said he wasn’t happy at first.<\/p>\n
Billy Dean recently shared the story…<\/p>\n
“The folks at Warner [Music] were celebrating, but I was irate.” So he told them, “Get it off there! I’m not a pop singer! I’m a country singer.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He eventually calmed down after they told him it didn’t mean he was a pop singer. It just meant he had one of the top albums across all genres.<\/p>\n
