Billy Ray, the father of Miley Cyrus, at the top of international music
The artist shares musical rankings with Justin Bieber, Ed Sheeran or Billie Eilish
Billy Ray Cyrus is an actor, singer, country music composer in the United States, and also the father of pop star Miley Cyrus, with whom he shared the limelight on the popular Disney Channel series Hannah Montana.
The singer, recognized for his cowboy hat and cowboy boots, has won a total of eight top-singles on the Billboard Country Songs chart, a difficult position to get, which denotes his talent within this style.
"Old Town Road"
Old Town Road is the song that has managed to reach number one on Billboard in less than a week. A place that seems impossible to take away from them. A success that he shares with rapper Lil Nas X, an emerging artist that Billy Ray has wanted to help. Not only because he considers that he has an innate talent to combine country and rap, but also because the magazine specialized in the music industry has wanted to disqualify and eliminate his song from the Billboard country charts, arguing that; "Although it incorporates references to country and cowboy imagery, it doesn't encompass enough elements of country music."
The remix-revenge that has reached number 1 on iTunes
As "revenge" for this elimination, Billy Ray Cyrus contacted Lil Nas X and together they released the remix of this song, with Miley Cyrus' father singing the main chorus. A remix that immediately rose to number 1 on iTunes in the United States.
What will Billboard do? Will this new version be reissued on your country singles top?
The undeniable thing is that the public is enthusiastic about this collaboration that both artists share, which is at the top next to songs like “I don't care” or “Bad Guy”, by Billie Eilish.
A post for which Miley Cyrus wanted to congratulate you. What a talented family!
