Thomas Rhett (EP)[edit]

Split - Album ranked No.3 on Top Heatseekers with two hit singles and should have its own article. Thoughts? --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:25, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thomas Rhett discography[edit]

Support Split (after article for second studio album is created) - Discography section takes up almost half of the page and should be split to Thomas Rhett discography. Thoughts? --Jax 0677 (talk) 15:28, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a good reason to split. You should split only when the article gets too big. Hzh (talk) 19:33, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Adding "Pop" Into Genre Section[edit]

Much in the way of Taylor Swift, Rhett appears to be heading in the pop direction. http://www.rollingstone.com/country/news/hear-thomas-rhett-maren-morris-new-song-craving-you-w474401 http://www.whiskeyriff.com/2017/07/21/first-listen-thomas-rhetts-new-single-unforgettable/ https://www.gq.com/story/thomas-rhett-craving-you-premiere

Would this be enough to classify him as a pop artist at this point? -- Telie2222 (talk) 05:22, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How do main critics/reviews view the albums and songs? The yet–to–be–released album is listed as "country' and the released singles have only appeared on country charts. He is already listed with a country–pop genre. This is probably as far as it should go at this point.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 23:01, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Loriendrew, if you're referring to it being listed as country on iTunes, that's largely irrelevant, as it really has a lot of inaccuracies and contradictions with other sources. I'm pretty sure Rolling Stone would classify as a pretty reliable source, especially since editors tend to use their reviews for the articles on here. Craving You's been called a pop song by numerous sources, and so is Unforgettable. Also, Billboard charts don't have a genre chart for pop songs. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together also made it on the country chart, despite it being a pop song and listed as such. -- Telie2222 (talk) 06:25, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request for comment[edit]

The consensus is that the lead should refer to Thomas Rhett as a country singer-songwriter.

Should the lead just refer to him as a singer-songwriter or should it refer to him as country singer-songwriter? Whether to include genre in the lead was bought up at MOS:BLP, and the decision was to determine on a case by case situation. JDDJS (talk) 21:51, 18 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - According to the infobox, he is a country, country rock, pop country, and R&B artist. If we are to add one genre, we should add them all however, since 4 different genres are listed, that's a bit excessive. Meatsgains (talk) 00:54, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support (Summoned by bot) Country would cover 3 of the 4 genres, and singer-songwriter, though normal for Wikipedia, sounds weird anyway. ping me if you want me to change my mind L3X1 (distænt write) 13:28, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support - country singer-songwriter per reliable sources. Tennessean, Country singer Thomas Rhett - Washington Post, country singer Thomas Rhett - Reuters, Country singer Thomas Rhett - GQ, the country star - Rolling Stone, Country singer Thomas Rhett - Billboard, Country singer/songwriter Thomas Rhett. And his about page at Facebook describes his Genre as Country. Isaidnoway (talk) 15:24, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
SupportCountry singer-songwriter. As User:Isaidnoway points out, almost all sources refer to him as a Country singer. His genre greatly affects his career. JDDJS (talk) 17:32, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support, per references provided by Isaidnoway. A Train^talk 07:27, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support Country easily covers country rock and pop country. The cited reference in the infobox[1]says "R&B-Tinged Brands of Country" so that is also covered. If anything I would say the infobox is misleading and should be reduced to country. AIRcorn (talk) 18:25, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Country Again: Side B[edit]

Since there is no mention of a release date for the album yet, can it be TBA until then in the discography section? 2600:1700:EA02:B900:7849:8CAB:4896:9CAB (talk) 17:03, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
