MUSIC STIGMA.

"What kind of music do you like?"

"Oh, you know, anything except country!"

Really? Anything? Really?? That statement just drives me up the wall. Not because people don't like country music- people are entitled to their opinions and if you genuinely don't like a certain type of music, that's okay. But I don't understand all the hatred towards country music. Is it because it's not the auto-tuned, digitally mixed crap that seems to be plaguing our radio stations? Is it because the people actually have talent? Is it because their songs aren't all about kinky sex, gangster life or drugs?

I don't get it.

I'm going to be honest, I really like country. No, I don't listen to it often, but it's always fun to tune into K102 every once and a while. Most of the songs are pretty upbeat and make me want to dance. Plus, artists like Willie Nelson or Rascal Flatts are great on road trips (I'm just sayin'). And let's be honest, we all went through a Taylor Swift phase.

I'm not trying to change your opinion about music- you're entitled to your own taste- but I just do not understand why everybody hates country so much.

Oh yeah! And ladies, listen to this song and tell me you don't like country. I mean DANG.
