Clay Walker
Despite being diagnosed with a case of progressive multiple sclerosis early on in his career, Clay Walker wasn’t about to be stopped. He got his first record deal with Giant in 92 and released a number one chart-topper, What’s It To You? a year later. His latest album was released in 2014 before he released a Best Of album. He’s still active today, showing what one can achieve when one puts their mind to it.
Gretchen Wilson
Gretchen Wilson pulled off a royal flush with her debut album, Here for the Party, when it hit number one, and earned her a Grammy. She followed the success of her debut with an album called Redneck Woman, with a track from that being the highest-debuting single ever by a female country singer. She might have set the bar high, but she consistently meets expectations, producing hit after hit. She has much more coming up.
