Toby Keith's Battle

It was reported that he was battling stomach cancer. We learned of the diagnosis in June of 2022. Toby even went on The Today Show to update fans as to how he was doing back in November of 2023.

The country singer performed in Las Vegas during the National Finals Rodeo, those dates were December 10, 11 and 14th. All three nights were sold out. According to his website, he did not have any planned performances after those dates.

Here he was in September of 2023 at the People's Choice Award. Despite going through this wicked battle, he is crushing it looking great at the end of last year.

Toby Keith Songs

This was a really hard list to make because of all of the amazing songs he has created for us. So I wanted to make it very clear, these are not in order of importance or love just because I couldn't rank them. They are all too good to make one better than another. Rest In Peace, Toby!
