George Strait Honors The Men & Women In Uniform With New “The Weight Of The Badge”

David McClister

I don’t know if there’s anyone in country music putting out better stuff than George right now. He hasn’t dropped a new album in 4 years, comes back, and every single song is absolute fire. Take notes from the King people.

Co-written by Strait himself, along with his son Bubba and longtime collaborator Dean Dillon, this latest one, “The Weight Of The Badge,” is a powerful new tribute to all the men and women in uniform. The men and women that lay down their lives to protect and serve.

Anytime you need a reminder of what country music is supposed to look like, just turn to George Strait. On the compass of country music, he always points true north.
