Lee Greenwood is patriotic and all... but I still prefer Toby as an artist. Toby might be milking the whole "I'm American, love me" thing but he atleast does other stuff. Unlike Lee who had semi-big patriotic hit, went away for 16 years and came back with the same song. Toby has some good non-patriotic songs.
His muscular chest aside, Kenny Chesney has recorded some of the best songs over the past decade or so (The Good Stuff, Alot of Things Different, How Forever Feels, That's Why I'm Here just to name a few.) And come on, you can't say the guy is bad because you don't think he compares to people like Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, and Johnny Cash, the man's not a legend or anything. And how Dwight Yoakham makes it on a list with those names is beyond me. He has some pretty good songs but he is nowhere near anyone else you mentioned. But give Kenny 10 more years or so and see where he ranks.
