Oliver Anthony on the Unexpected Success and Backlash from "Rich Men North of Richmond"

Less then a month ago he was unknown to the world and now he is on Joe Rogan. Never been happier to see someone succeed!

I hope this dude lives through the fame and hype, and lives a long beautiful life.

Much respect for Joe inviting someone like Oliver Anthony on his show. We need more real people exposed to us. Gives other hopes.

It's not just his songs, it's refreshing to have someone that is a normal guy putting out a hit. It's more authentic that what is going on in the music industry. Now they find the image they want, hire song writers and use auto tune to make their hits. Then they don't even sign during their concerts, they just play the music and lip sync. Seeing the real deal is part of the charm of this guy.

I just went down his musical rabbit hole. He is far from a one hit wonder. His music is from the heart, his voice and writing is authentic. Just a extremely talented dude from the country that deserves all the success coming to him.

"my singing ain't the best" Humble words from a man who sang straight from his soul. Beautiful voice, It stands alone and is truly unforgettable. That's just my opinion. ❤

Really cool, down to earth guy

"Outside of work I would drink, I would get absolutely stoned, and I would sit around and try think about anything but what it is that I really needed to be doing." So many people are just like this and its what makes him so relatable.

I am a black man in his 40s when I first heard this I did not know of the song or artist I just clicked, I listened and broke down on floor crying. This song resonates with the common person right through the soul.... ❤2ALL StaySafe

My brother showed "North of Richmond" to me randomly one day, and I was listening but only half-paying attention at first, doing dishes. The first few seconds when I heard "I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day..." I turned the sink off and was focused on the video. His voice! ❤ I'm glad I watched it; his face and eyes reveal a deep pain that lives there now. I can relate. Such a raw talent, I'm most definitely a fan.
