How is she even country music? None of her music even closely sounds like country and her music videos are far from country. She sings love songs and pop music.
Her winning a country music award to me is like Hank Williams Jr winning best rap song of the year.
Recently George Jones said that all of these so called new country music singers are not even country and should find there own title to call their music. I could not agree more. Reba Mcintire is country, Hank Williams Sr and Jr are country, Patsy Cline, etc. Taylor Swift and all these other newbies are not country.
The Cma's are now a joke.

First - Bocephus isn't really country anymore.He gave that up a long time ago.What makes a music video "country" ? Who gets to decide?Reba McEntire is just as pop as the Taylor Swifts of the world.And music in general has changed since the days of Patsy Cline and Luke the Drifter.In my opinion,George Jones is a grouchy old man who has had a great career.But it's time for him to step aside and let the next generation take their place.The generation before him didn't necessarily appreciate his stuff ,either.The CMA's are a joke?Don't watch.That was easy.And a real country music person would know how to spell Reba's last name.
回复删除cause people like her.
回复删除don't watch it anymore....They voted for her................listen to the oldies
回复删除She won because she's good.All of her music sounds like country to me but that's my opinion. Source(s): ME
回复删除I absolutely agree with you. Reba McEntire is by far the best female singer. In my personal opinion, Taylor Swift is not at ALL what she is cracked up to be. Her music can barely be considered music, and certainly not country music.
回复删除I agree her music is not country. I like one of her songs a little bit but they are all for teeny boppers. She should not have won half the awards she got and I believe she should thank Kanye for all her awards because he is the reason she won. Everyone felt sorry for her. Most of her songs ie diary suck though.
回复删除I agree with you completely! I can not understand how she can be picked over Reba, George or Kenny. She can not sing worth crap and all her songs sound exactly the same. We call her music "Bubble Gum Country". It is time for her to go away. I used to enjoy the CMA awards and other country music awards, I can't watch them anymore. There are others that annoy me but Taylor is at the top of the list, I watch her and I can feel my blood pressure rising. They give her awards to sell more records.
回复删除Sounds like country to me.... What do you call her having a fiddler and a banjo player. She is a COUNTRY-POP artist. Her first album had more country, and her second album had more pop. I hear country in her music. She won an award because she's GOOD, and because people like her. I think she is both, but I can hear country in her music.EDIT: I agree with Edith.
回复删除She is more country than pop any day of the week and a breath of fresh air. She is a real drawing card for young would-be country music fans. Kids totally relate to her and she is their leader. She is a real natural from the word go. She writes her music effortlessly in no time flat and can put an album together in a matter of days. How lucky can Nashville get? To top it all off, she has got an endearing personality and demeanor and she is totally cute and lovely at the same. During these rather distressing times in the USA, Taylor's music is lighthearted, soulful and it's fun and makes you feel happy.
回复删除Dude u know actually what ur problem is that u just dont like her. Well it happens sometime, we like or dislike people for no reason.Well talking about her music, it is country. Who says country song cannot be alove song.Actually there is a difference between the old country music & the new one. 2day they use few more instruments besides guitar.I like her music. Its soft, cute & feels good on ears. She is not the best singer out there, but her songs are best.She deserves a country music award.
回复删除I agree the CMA's are a joke...No one sings country anymore. Its like pop music is gone and everyone is now country. Sugarland is pop music..... Taylor Swift is pop music..... I close my eyes and listen to Darius Rucker and it sounds the same as when he was Hootie ????? I think losing music video channels had a lot to do with it. Country music videos are popular on the country music channel and makes singers more popular than without videos. MTV and vhi are pretty much gone or into reality tv now....Pop music stars are losing there popularity and they see where the money is....George Strait,Brooks and Dunn and Reba were about the only country artist choices last night......
回复删除A long time ago Charlie Louvin said that "CMA" anymore stands for "Country, My (Butt)."And you are correct -- they are NOT country. However, remember that the people who are running the industry today started in rock and roll (e.g., Jim Ed Norman, Shania Twain was married to a rock producer "Mutt" Lang) and they think Lynyrd Skynyrd is "country" -- I guess because they were from "the south." That doesn't determine whether one is country or not (Country Hall of Famer Hank Snow was from Nova Scotia; rocker Meat Loaf is from Texas); nor does the label that a marketer puts on it. The MUSIC is what determines if it's country (anyone who doubts this, read the music dictionary definitions) -- and Taylor Swift couldn't go country standing in a pile of cow manure anymore than (to quote Porter Wagoner) Waylon Jennings could go pop with a mouthful of firecrackers.
回复删除It's called EVOLVING. Every decade has a different style of music. Soul music today is not the same as it was in 1960, but it's still soul. Rock music isn't the same, even rap music isn't the same as it was in the 70's, but it's still rap music.You can't expect them to ALWAYS sing about tears in their beers or Bubba shooting the jukebox.
