Is Taylor Swift considered a country singer or pop? This has been a debate at our house. She is at all the country music award events, but imo she's not what I would consider country, but I admit I'm not as knowledgable about music as many BGP members.

"she does not like to label her music". However, I think she would be considered a "cross-over" artist. Country/pop

 

I believe she started her career touring with George Strait who is definitely country.

Yes.

 

Oh, that wasn't the question?

She's a "new" country type singer

She is both.

Maybe Jim Schue can categorize her for us...

She is a "gray."

 

 

 

 

Jim Schue is the first person I thought of when I saw this. I think she started as country and is now moving to more of a pop artist.

:puke:

The vast majority of music that receives the "country" moniker these days is just pop music sung with an occasional bit of a draw and wearing a cowboy hat and/or boots...sometimes.

Whatever she is...she is the next Oprah.

I'm pretty surprised it took someone until Post #10 to make this comment. Not saying right or wrong, but I would have thought this would have been the first response with the majority of this group.

I don't consider her either...I don't consider her at all!
