As for a hip-hop/country crossover album, ugh. I absolutely hate this awful sound. I love music that's different, don't get me wrong, but I think this crossover between those two has never, and probably wont ever work. I mean I don't know, I just don't find it interesting. Unless it ends up sounding like Gangstagrass which I doubt is the plan, lol.

I know die hard country fans hate the whole country pop sound but its the only way to get some people introduced to country. I know for my I prefer the country pop stuff because it seems easier on the ears than the heavy twang stuff. I haven't listened to a Taylor Swift album yet but groups like Lady Antebelum , SugarLand and Zac Morris Band are some of my favorites in country and they aren't as traditional as some of the older artists.
