During an interview with Taste of Country Nights, the brothers opened up about collaborating with Johnson despite what they described as political differences.

The brothers know they're not going to agree with everybody in country music. They also know that doesn't mean they can't respect someone, get along with them or make a great song together.

Brothers Osborne Say Cody Johnson Is 'One of the Coolest Dudes Ever'

TJ acknowledged that he and his brother have a different political outlook than many country artists and fans, but he doesn't see that as a reason to avoid working with somebody, and honestly, we need more of this narrative in country music.

"There are some people that are just bad people, like regardless of where you stand, and Cody is not one of them. He's like one of the coolest dudes ever."

TJ admitted that he and Johnson probably have their differences, but that wasn't the point of their collaboration.

"I'm sure we have our differences, but that's not what this was about," he said. "It was about us collaborating on things that we do well together."
