Why do women have to stay in a genre who will not play their music? While you have the country men ruling country radio and some able to easily sell over 200k their first week. Then you have artists like carrie and miranda one unable to sell 2 million anymore (carrie) when several country men are doing that. Or, one that is unable to open with 200k (miranda). These two women are considered the most played in country radio yet their sales do not match their male counterparts. Then you have an artist like kacey musgraves who cannot get much country radio play at all and is forced to tour with katy perry in order to have her music heard. If taylor sat there and did nothing she would be in the same shape as carrie, miranda and casey, second fiddle to the men in country music and unable to beat the at touring, album or single sales. I say where ever your music will be heard, that is where you should go. Do not hate the player, hate the game.

As much as we bag on Taylor releasing WANEGBT... country radio isn't going to play her compared to the boys . She got the pop world's attention.
