What Happened To Big & Rich

Hey there, music lovers! You might be wondering, "Whatever happened to Big & Rich?" You know, that dynamic duo who had us all singing along to "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)" back in the day. Well, grab a drink, get comfy, and let's take a little stroll down memory lane, shall we?

So, Who Were Big & Rich Again?

If you've been living under a rock (no judgment, we all have our moments), Big & Rich were a country music duo consisting of John Rich and Big Kenny. They burst onto the scene in the early 2000s, bringing a unique blend of country, rock, and hip-hop to the table. Their music was like that one friend who always brings the party to the picnic - you know, the one who makes sure everyone's having a good time.

They Were Everywhere!

Remember when "Save a Horse" was everywhere? It was like the soundtrack to summer, wasn't it? And let's not forget "Comin' to Your City" and "Lost in this Moment." Those tunes were like the cool kids at the party, always the life of it. Big & Rich were even nominated for a Grammy in 2005 for their album "Horse of a Different Color." Yeah, they were that big.

But then, something happened. They seemed to disappear from the spotlight. So, what gives?

Where Did They Go?

Well, it turns out, they didn't go anywhere. They were just busy being, well, rich and big. John Rich, for instance, became a judge on the reality TV show "Nashville Star." He also started his own record label, Rich Records. Big Kenny, on the other hand, got into philanthropy, starting a charity called "Big Kenny's Love Everyone Movement." You know, just your average country music superstars.

But What About Their Music?

Oh, they're still making music! It's just not as frequent as it used to be. They released "Gravity" in 2012, and "Did It for the Party" in 2018. Both albums are filled with that classic Big & Rich sound - a little bit country, a little bit rock 'n' roll, and a whole lot of fun.

So, there you have it. Big & Rich didn't disappear; they just took a little detour. And you know what? That's okay. Because when they do grace us with their presence, it's like catching up with an old friend. And who knows? Maybe they'll ride back into our lives with another hit song. After all, they've got a whole stable full of horses ready to save.
