There’s a line on Musgraves’ new album, on a song called “Good Ol’ Boys Club”: Another gear in a big machine don’t sound like fun to me. It’s a classic Musgraves move, layering new meaning on a cliché phrase. In this case, she is referencing Nashville’s Big Machine, a powerhouse label built around the discovery and lucrative evolution of Taylor Swift. “I’m talking about a lot of different people,” Musgraves tells me, when I ask about the double-meaning. “Any industry has its shoo-ins and people that get in because they know somebody, or their dad worked here, whatever. But, yeah, there is a wink.” Swift—one year Musgraves’ junior, the blonde to her brunette, the Yankee transplant to the taxidermy-wielding Texan—used to be more of a direct competitor than she is now that she’s openly left the genre to go full-on pop. (Both of Musgraves’ Grammy victories were over Swift.) “The idea of massive amounts of fame—having my face on Walgreens end-caps and pizza boxes—I don’t fantasize about that,” Musgraves says, referencing some of Swift’s recent album promo. “Do I want to be comfortable, to live my life however I want within reason? Yeah. But I’m happy with just being a songwriter. I’d rather have smaller numbers [of fans] that are really into what I’m doing than a massive amount of people that don’t really know what I’m about.”
"With 26 weeks at No. 1, Swift has easily spent the most time at the Artist 100 summit since the chart launched on July 19, 2014. Sam Smith ranks second with three total weeks on top."
she seems so bothered I wonder why, it s not like Taylor stole her dancers...why so arrogant when you re still kind of irrelevant ! she should consider herself lucky if she reaches half of Taylor's country career...let alone Taylor's pop one
Kacey tried so hard to make it seem like she doesn't have anything against Taylor but "she's just different"
Taylor clearly achieved Kacey's dream way earlier in her life and she's obviously bitter about that
she seems so bothered I wonder why, it s not like Taylor stole her dancers...why so arrogant when you re still kind of irrelevant ! she should consider herself lucky if she reaches half of Taylor's country career...let alone Taylor's pop one
She probably thought that after Taylor going to the pop genre she would fill her place... poor her
Kacey may not 'fantasize about being on pizza boxes', but I bet she fantasizes about being EOTY at the CMAs or winning AOTY at the Grammy's. Or selling out Stadiums. Or having an album go Platinum! I bet Taylor didn't fantasize about being on pizza boxes either but she doesn't have to fantasize about achieving any of those other things either. Keep dreaming, Kacey. You might get a Platinum record. One day....
