this is what snarkers find funny. truly so sad

not what i said. you can’t read

shut the fuck up

no, you just don’t understand what i’m saying. try to keep up

i don’t listen to only taylor’s music. nice try

that’s just not true lmfao

the audience was attracted to taylor because she wrote her own music about being a teenager. that’s why the label executives didn’t want tay to write her own music. keep up genius

"She knew that she wanted to write her own songs, and she knew that she wanted to write those songs for an audience of her peers. And that sounds really simple, but the consensus in country music was that was not the right decision. Because other teen artists had not really broken through in country music the way that Taylor wanted to...Around 2006, 80% of the hits in country music were performed by men, and men were played 4-5x times more on country music radio...It was really hard, if you were a woman, to break through that dynamic." These are quotes that Kevin Evers, who is an editor at the Harvard Business Review, gave in a documentary talking about Taylor's early career. No, she didn't literally invent being a teen girl in country music, but she was absolutely a trailblazer when it came to doing it successfully. So pretending like her success was manufactured or "market research driven" like the original quote that started this was saying, is far more of a bad take than anyone who said that she was a trailblazer in her field.

actual music critics have said this lmfao stop acting like you know so much about music

brad paisley literally JUST credited her for bringing a whole new generation to country lmao. these people are ridiculous

even jason aldean of all people acknowledges this. at some point you have to too!

you tried it ig

no, most of them were not interested in listening to songs written by adults for other adults

dolly parton was 21 when her debut album came out… so not a teenager like taylor. thanks for proving the point

people actually really like addison rae’s music but are too scared to admit it which is why they’ll prop up and glaze any cover of her songs

i can’t believe people think the rebecca black cover of fame is a gun is good it literally sounds like this

and when i was shipwrecked. i thought of you. through the cracks of light. i dreamed of you. and it was real enough. to get me through. i swear. you were there.
