Toby Keith is an Academy Of Country Music Entertainer Of The Year and country music legend! He was named the most successful country artist of the new century by United Stations Radio Networks; and he was 2002’s #1 concert-ticket seller in country music, according to Pollstar. His achievements in songwriting (12 of his 16 #1 hits have been self-penned), radio airplay (eight Billboard country #1’s and eight R&R country #1’s from his DreamWorks Records alone), and sales of more than 13.5 million speak for themselves.
SHOCK’N Y’ALL (DreamWorks Records), Country music star Toby Keith’s self-titled debut album went platinum in 1993. In reaction to the events of 9/11, Keith wrote the song “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)” which struck a chord with military personnel. The controversial tune caused Keith to bump heads with fellow country star Natalie Maines. Outside of his dispute with Maines, Keith has worked with country greats like Willie Nelson. He went on to release several popular albums and tried his hand at acting in 2008. On January 19, 2017, Keith performed at Donald Trump’s pre-inauguration concert at the Lincoln Memorial.
