The Biggest Country Stars & Their Ventures Away From Music
Darius Rucker
Darius Rucker is best known as the lead vocalist for the rock group Hootie & the Blowfish. Rucker released a solo R&B album in 2002 before signing up with Capitol Nashville in 2008 as a country artist. He became one of the few African American artists to top the country charts with his first single Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It.
Rucker followed through with a New Artist win awarded by the Country Music Association, and that made him the first African American to earn such an achievement. He is quite charitable, and he serves as a board member for various organizations, including the MUSC Children’s Hospital.
