Kane Brown: ‘I Didn’t Expect People To Look Up To Me’
As we shared last month (9/15), Kane Brown was named one of Time‘s “100 Most Influential People In The World,” and his friend Darius Rucker wrote an essay about the country superstar.
Kane has had some time to let it all sink in, and he recently shared with us his thoughts on the honor. He said, “I didn’t expect people to look up to me, but I’ve had so many people come up recently especially since the Time 100, and just say how much that they look up to me and respect me and how we’re just opening up doors.”
Brown added, “And you know, I was extremely happy. When Darius said I was kind of doing like what Charlie Pride did for a lot of people. And the same thing for what he did. So, I’m just super blessed to be honored with the Time 100.”
