Taylor, honey you are a pop singer now…

With the recent release of Taylor Swift’s new album Red, all the girls on my floor have gone mad. Some of them went to purchase the album at midnight when it came out and those that didn’t purchased it several days later. Not only do they all on the CD but they play it all the time. I’m not exactly what you would call a Taylor Swift hater, but I definitely wouldn’t call myself a fan. Although I do have to admit that I like this album a lot better than some of her previous albums, but maybe that’s because I absolutely detest country music.


But when I got on iTunes and viewed her album, I noticed that her album was listened under 5 or 6 genres including: Country, honky tonk, rock, pop, teen pop and contemporary country. I am sorry but there is no way that her album is in any way shape or form country music. With the number of times I have listened to this album (against my will) I feel I can positively state that T-swift has officially made her transition away from country and over to pop music. Nothing against her, but I surely hope that with her music being labeled within that genre she would be eligible for any nominations at the CMA’s next year. Not that the music is that terrible but it definitely should have been labeled under a different genre.
