When Kesha announced she was writing about a breakup she went through people called it "an angrier Taylor Swift". Cassadee Pope said she wanted to be a less country TS. Everytime a young female enters the country scene she's compared to Taylor's beginnings in some way. Either she's the next Taylor, the anti Taylor, certain songs are Taylor-esque.
I rather her be known for that then some media controversy/performance etc.

Agreed. The only problematic thing connected to her is her '1000' boyfriends and then they judge her thinking and creating an image of her worse than Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and Rihanna. We are lucky that she is at least for now considered cleaner than Miley Cyrus. People really judge Taylor and they can't just stand that an absolutely gorgeous woman can write so well, sing so well, win Grammys yet have all her albums go multi-platinum all at the same time but still keep a clean image. But keeping aside all these things, all people like at least one of her songs. My sister and 1/2 cousins don't like her, but they all bop to 22 and listen to Teardrops On My Guitar, Love Story and Mine. My cousin brother is like 'Taylor isn't good' and at the mall he was singing along to Love Story in the mall.
I'm pretty sure the first country song I've ever heard on radio was TOMG 
Here for LP5 being greenish
