I love country. But I love country boys even more.
'Well when we get to sipping whiskey/And we get a little frisky/I climb up on him, ride him like an F-150'
Here's an 'F150' pick-up truck, macho icon of country boys. It’s BIG.
And here's 'Good Lookin', another bussy-lovin’ track from Dixon Dallas - and a Tik Tok hit:
Just in case you didn’t catch that irresistible refrain:
'He's bouncing off my booty cheeks, I love the way he rides/I can hardly breathe when he's pumping deep inside/I kiss him on his neck and then he kisses on my bussy/Call him "Daddy" while I holler/Man, that boy so damn good looking'
Dixon Dallas is an alter-ego for the Alabama rapper Jake Hill, who is - the impertinence! - refusing to disclose his 'real' sexuality. This has prompted a great deal of speculation and accusation: Wind-up? Parody? Punk provocation? (See also Sid Vicious’ gay cowboys t-shirt, now available of course by mail order.) ‘Queerbaiting’. Or sincere exploration of bussy-love?
Personally, I don't much care. Whatever the motivation, the songs are catchy, funny, and strangely affecting - capturing, expressing, and evangelising a certain, fresh joyous quality of butch bottomness that I, as an incorrigible fan of butch bottoms, choose to find entirely convincing.
It is a ‘voice’ that we haven’t really heard before, at least not outside of gay porn, and certainly not in country and western. Moreover it sounds genuinely carefree and uninhibited in extolling the fun and feels of being “pumped deep inside”.
(Which, admittedly, inclines me to suspect that Hill isn't ‘musical’.)
Here’s what the artist had to say in response to the accusations:
"Of course you'll have people saying I'm gaybating and queerbating. Growing up in the south, you're taught how to think a certain way. I reached a point where I started thinking for myself. My music is a big f*** you to my past. No, I haven't disclosed my sexuality. I could be gay. I could be straight. I could be bi. At the end of the day, I feel like it doesn't matter. There's no law that says I can't write a song about getting my booty cheeks bounced off of."
Quite so. Especially when it’s such a darn good bouncing booty cheeks song.
Update 27/08/23
Turns out Jake Hill released a ‘punk pop’ peon to the joys of butch bottoming back in 2021, under his own name. It’s probably the most explicit of all his bottoming songs, whatever ego, but because it was punk pop rather than country it didn’t quite have the same impact. Which is perhaps why he invented Dixon Dallas. Everyone loves gay cowboys.
