After a longstanding feud and a very public war of words, Gavin Adcock and Charley Crockett have shocked the country music world by announcing they've squashed their beef.
The duo have revealed that they met up for a drink, seemingly at The Stage on Broadway in Nashville, with Adcock and Crockett both sharing photos of them laughing together.
Adcock captioned his post by underlining that, even though they might not agree on every issue, this doesn't mean they can't get along, “We might not always see eye to eye but that don’t mean we can’t drop our pride and bullshit and be friends”.
Crockett kept his caption relatively brief, commenting simply, “The country music world’s healing y’all”, alongside the image of he and Adcock drinking and joking around. After Florida Georgia Line's reunion this summer, it seems 2026 is the year of reconciliation.
The feud between the two started out of the blue last summer, after Adcock shared a video of him criticising Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter album and questioning how ‘country’ it was. Crockett responded by defending Beyoncé's foray into the genre, and sending a few not-so-subtle shots at the mainstream country music scene.
This led to a number of jabs sent back-and-forth online, with Adcock later mocking Crockett with a video of him busking on the subway, before Crockett underlined that he doesn't have anything to be ashamed of about with regards to his start in music.
There are various other thinly veiled shots, such as Adcock bringing out a photo of Crockett at one of Wallen's tour-stops, and Wallen showing the tee the middle-finger, as well as the moment Crockett left Adcock roses and one of his vinyls at a venue.
There were also numerous clashes over each artist's portrayal of their faith, with Crockett questioning the sincerity of Adcock's Jesus-inspired ode, ‘Perfect Man’.
It all became intertwined with Adcock's various other feuds with the likes of Benjamin Tod and Zach Bryan, with the ‘Wannabe’ hitmaker never shying away from a verbal sparring.
Now, thankfully, it seems Adcock and Crockett have put their animosity to bed. As much as fans online might enjoy the drama when two artists start beefing - as we saw with Drake and Kendrick Lamar's notorious, large-scale rap war in 2024 - in reality, these are still human beings we're talking about. Peace and kindness is surely always the better option, and we're glad to see Adcock and Crockett proving this.
