- At the 2025 American Music Awards on May 26 in Las Vegas, Megan Moroney and Shaboozey presented the Favorite Country Duo or Group award.
- Moroney claimed the Carter Family invented country music, a statement that overlooks earlier Black musicians like Lesley Riddle who influenced the genre's early growth.

- This moment sparked renewed discussion about the under-recognized role of Black musicians in country music and highlights the genre's complex cultural origins.
