We&nbsp;didn\u2019t&nbsp;force it. His going out on the stadium tours [opening for] Morgan [Wallen] and developing a show was step one. And then step two [was] starting to headline fairs and festivals. Even though&nbsp;it\u2019s&nbsp;a built-in audience,&nbsp;you\u2019re&nbsp;still able to track&nbsp;what&nbsp;the value&nbsp;is.

What advice do you give when an artist wants to get political?&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Tikhman: We encourage our artists to not speak about politics.&nbsp;It\u2019s&nbsp;dicey because you&nbsp;don\u2019t&nbsp;want to be censored, but I think that&nbsp;it\u2019s&nbsp;a very polarizing thing and sometimes people want to just go to a Nate Smith show and just&nbsp;hear&nbsp;the songs and the music.&nbsp;We\u2019re&nbsp;like, \u201cLet\u2019s&nbsp;make it about the music.

So even though Nate\u2019s got the biggest heart in the world and what he meant was to try to bring people together, it certainly&nbsp;wasn\u2019t&nbsp;received like that. But&nbsp;let\u2019s&nbsp;not kid&nbsp;ourselves;&nbsp;there\u2019s people that are not Nate Smith fans because of that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>What does The Core Entertainment look like five years from now?&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Tikhman: Chief and I have always said from day one that this company is&nbsp;way bigger&nbsp;than just the genre, and&nbsp;we\u2019re&nbsp;looking at artists in different genres all the time.&nbsp;It\u2019s&nbsp;not just&nbsp;country.
