Country newcomer Gavin Adcock says he relates to the late Charlie Kirk in the sense that he is one of the most outspoken artists in all of music.
Adcock was a guest on Fox News Channel’s The Ingraham Angle, where they asked if he watched Charlie Kirk regularly or listened to his podcast.
Was Gavin Adcock a Charlie Kirk Fan?
Adcock said, “I was — I was — I was seeing him on social media all the time. I mean, it was — it was every day I was seeing him debate somebody over just being moral and being a good person.”
He was referring to the Q&A sessions that Kirk engaged in across America, where he gave people the chance to essentially debate him on the spot about any and all issues.
That’s what the conservative commentator was doing at Utah Valley University, where Kirk was speaking when he was shot and killed.
Then, Adcock shared how he related to Kirk.
“He had a voice, and he expressed it, which I can really appreciate because I’m one of the most outspoken artists in all of music and that’s not something I can be bought out from, or I’ll ever change. So, I can really appreciate that.”
