Mama’s chicken? Fried.

Ford Trucks? Towing.

Horses? In the Back.

Yee? Haw.

Gowns? Beautiful

Country Music? Fuck yeah.


Hello and welcome to the Turn of the Decade Country Women Rate! Myself, along with /u/JCarson24x are proud to bring you back to the country genre, a genre rarely touched upon by r/popheads. This month, we bring you three iconic country masterpieces from three of the biggest names in country music, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, and Miranda Lambert.

All three of these women were THE LEADING ladies of country music from 2008 – present (except for Taylor, RIP Old Taylor). These three albums, Blown Away, Speak Now, and Four the Record, were

Good morning r/popheads

After a drama filled evening, and official statements starting to come out today, the moderators have decided to make an official megathread for any continuing discussion to take place. Any new statements, support, or discussion should go here. I will also create a timeline and sources of known facts and support below:


  • If you live under a rock, Scott Borchetta sold Taylor's masters earlier this year to Scooter Braun. Lots of upset, lots of arguing and statements, and basically nothing changed after it calmed down.

  • Oct. 28: BMR reaches out to Taylor

"Please be advised that BMLG will not agree to issue licenses for existing recordings or waivers of its re-recording restrictions in connection with these two projects: The Netflix documentary and The Alibaba 'Double Eleven' event" source

  • Taylor Swift performs in China for the Double Eleven event, and cuts out half of her set due to this requirement, performing only songs from Lover

  • Flash forward to last night, Taylor Swift posts this message to her Twitter (it has now become her most liked tweet ever)

What this means is that BMR is refusing her to perform or use any of her old music in any way that is being recorded or distributed. Her AMA performance, a previously completely unknown Netflix documentary, etc. She reaches out to her fans, artists signed under the label, and the Carlyle Group, which helped Scooter purchase the masters earlier for help.

How deluded can you be? Who tf cares about gender here

I came into this thread with "Who tf cares about race here" after reading that title lmao.

Like, how desperate is this thread to get outraged as to bring up race into this as if Taylor isn't a white woman herself, benefiting from her blonde hair blue eyes whiteness her entire career 😂

Hi, I mentioned it in the thread already that the title was done for memes and for no other reason or social commentary on my end

Idk I think it would be cool if you didn't make light of racial injustice like that to begin with.

There's nothing about this situation that's about race and Taylor, out of all the white female pop stars, has been careful to appease her white audience and not offend them until it was safe for her to speak up.

EDIT: I get that you were doing it to be funny, but honestly it's just tired that y'all always downplay wHiTe mEn 🤪🤪🤪 like this.

I personally did it because I’m a white man and I know I suck 🤷🏼‍♂️

Wow what a HAUNTING song.

Also, it is really interesting to hear her and know she wrote every lyric, this sounds like a classic musical track already

Edit: Miss Swift belting that last note? Safe and Sound has met her match tbh

It's credited by her and Andrew Lloyd Webber both, so. But I do agree it sounds like it could have fit the original score.

The featurette where they announced the song had Andrew Lloyd Webber saying that he wrote the composition and Taylor wrote the lyrics entirely as he played it for her

Friday I think is the last date for oscars nominations .

Oscar noms aren’t due until middle/end of December iirc

Someone explained above, so yes submissions are due but movies don’t need to be ‘released’ until end of December.

There’s also a fire fox that was just leaked.
