Gary Allan Vs. Taylor Swift & Carrie Underwood
When asked about Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood in an interview with Larry King, Allan responded, “I think they’re pop artists making a profession out of the country music industry.” Both fans and critics came to their defense, so Allan issued a clarification on Facebook — nothing like an apology at all.
“Country music has evolved,” he remarked, mentioning that his own music had altered in the last decade. Nowadays, he claimed, you can’t tell it’s country music just by listening to it.
