Did you know some of the most popular country hits of the past 10 years were Chris Stapleton songs?
After his award sweep at the 2015 CMA Awards, which included an inspired duet with Justin Timberlake, many people began discovering Stapleton's distinct voice for the first time.
Or did they?
Stapleton got his start writing hits for other Nashville country artists before recording Traveller, and many people have heard his handiwork and not even known it.
The list is remarkable for its varied collaborators. Stapleton's written for both George Strait and Luke Bryan, and it's easy to see how he became so successful in country music. He knew how to write songs for artists that deftly capitalize on their past successes while still maintaining an original voice.
If anything, Stapleton's story is another reminder that if you work hard enough at something you love, big things can happen.
The Grammy-winning singer of "Nobody To Blame," "Either Way," "Broken Halos" and Tennessee Whiskey" has written some of country music's biggest hits.

Darius Rucker's "Comeback Song," Luke Bryan's "Drink a Beer," George Strait's "Love's Gonna Make it Alright," Kenny Chesney's "Never Wanted Nothing More," Josh Turner's "Your Man" Thomas Rhett's "Crash and Burn" and "Something to Do with My Hands," Adeles' "If It Hadn't Been for Love," Joss Stone's "Don't Start Lying to Me Now," Sheryl Crow's "Homesick" (featuring Zac Brown), Alison Krauss & Union Station's "Miles to Go," Lee Ann Womack's "There's More Where That Came From," Blake Shelton's "Ready to Roll," Alan Jackson's "Gonna Come Back as a Country Song" and "Talk is Cheap," Tim McGraw's "Whiskey and You," Brad Paisley's "The Best Thing That I Had Goin'," Miranda Lambert's "Nobody's Fool," Trace Adkins' "Swing," Dierks Bentley's "Diamonds Make Babies," Little Big Town's "Front Porch Thing" and more.
