 'FOUGHT HIS FIGHT': Toby Keith, who was battling stomach cancer, died peacefully surrounded by his family, according to a statement posted on the country singer's website. "He fought his fight with grace and courage," the statement said.

"Toby Keith was big, brash, and never bowed down or slowed down for anyone. His story is a distinctly American one—a former roughneck oil worker who carved out his own space in country music with a sinewy voice and an unbending will to succeed. He wrote his breakthrough songs and later formed his own record label when he felt underserved by Nashville. He relished being an outsider and doing things his way. Proudly patriotic, he didn’t mind if his clear-cut convictions ruffled your feathers. For three decades, he reflected the defiant strength of the country music audience. His memory will continue to stand tall."


—Kyle Young, CEO

"This is a heart breaker.. Toby Keith was one of the first to believe in us Flatts boys… He took us on the road and took a chance on us. We were fast friends and it still remains as one of the best tour experiences of my career. However, I got something even better out of it in the end, a lifelong friend… Rest in peace Toby, I’m sure gonna miss you…"


Country music star Toby Keith signed Taylor Swift to his record label when she moved to Nashville in the early 2000s. The rest is history.
