Country music star Zach Bryan, set to perform at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia tonight and tomorrow, has expressed his frustration over a derogatory online comment. Bryan took to social media to respond to a post from the account Prime Time Country Music, which he found offensive.
The controversy erupted after Bryan came across a segment from the platform, known for its “PTCM Shots Fired” feature, where anonymous users share their opinions on country artists. One particular comment criticized Bryan with a disparaging remark, accompanied by a photo from his 2023 arrest.
In a heated response, Bryan condemned the anonymous criticism, questioning the integrity of the account and its content. “Why are you calling yourself a country music social site and saying [expletive] like this on it,” Bryan wrote. “I pray you pieces of trash that don’t even have your name attached to these accounts know how much worse the world is with you in them. Don’t ever insult my parents, don’t ever insult anyone’s parents. If anyone knows who runs this account please tell me, I’m so tired of this [expletive].”
The backlash highlights Bryan’s strong reaction to personal attacks and underscores ongoing tensions in the world of country music online discourse.
