The music industry is buzzing with the news that Capitol Records may have parted ways with country music legend Garth Brooks following a series of contentious events. This latest development was shared by an insider, reportedly a sanitary maintenance operator at the Capitol Tower named Kevin, who claimed, “Capitol Records is out. They want fresh new talent that doesn’t hate people for loving America.”

The rift purportedly stems from an incident where Brooks allegedly disparaged his own fans during a concert. According to the source, Brooks’s behavior did not sit well with the record label, which believes in the importance of not alienating a significant portion of the American public—those who work and spend. “You can’t alienate the half of America that works and spends money. It’s a poor business model,” commented an anonymous executive at Capitol.

Despite the plausibility of these claims, verification remains elusive. Kevin, whose credibility and employment status have not been confirmed, has been our informant before, but doubts linger about the authenticity of his latest statements.

If true, this development could signal a significant shift in Brooks’s career and potentially impact his relationship with his fanbase. The situation underscores the delicate balance artists must maintain in their public personas and the economic imperatives of the music industry. As the story unfolds, the industry watches keenly to see the consequences for Brooks and Capitol Records in navigating the choppy waters of public opinion and commercial viability.
