Who’s your daddy?
Toby Keith’s peers with the Nashville Songwriters Association International have named the country music star the best songwriter/artist of the decade.
Keith will be honored Oct. 18 for his hits "Courtesy of the Red, White And Blue (The Angry American)," "Who's Your Daddy?," "As Good As I Once Was" and "God Love Her."
In an award for a songwriter only, Craig Wiseman was named songwriter of the decade for hits such as "The Good Stuff" by Kenny Chesney, "Believe" by Brooks & Dunn, "Summertime" by Kenny Chesney and "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw.
Keith and Wiseman were chosen by their fellow songwriters. The 42-year-old, 5,000-member group bills itself as the world's largest not-for-profit songwriters' trade organization.
Presumably, Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks did not vote for Keith.
