Corey Smith: Keeping it Real

Corey Smith is a musician originating from Georgia who appeals to all, which must be why his concerts sell out so quickly. His songs vary from partying, his encounter with corrupt police officers with the song “F--- the Po Po”, and basically just living his life. This relatable artist ended the night with his song, “Drinkin’ Again,” which he wrote about his return to alcohol abuse.

The 32-year-old high school teacher turned country star’s lyrics are catchy and full of spirit. Smith seems to have no boundaries when it comes to his songs, which is probably why he is so popular. The father of two children can easily connect to his audience on stage, which is evident with all of the cheering his fans do. His fan base is targeted towards the college scene, but in reality it targets a much larger demographic.

Smith is an honest man that shares his life stories through his raw lyrics. It is clear that he doesn’t try to be anyone he is not. Corey Smith’s music seems to parallels his personality, real and down to earth.
