Harsh words for Taylor Swift

Country sweetheart Taylor Swift faces strong criticism from a fellow musician.

Black Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson slammed country sensation Taylor Swift and did not mince words. Based on his comments, we can conclude he is not a fan.

In an interview with Nylon Guys magazine, Robinson ranted: "I find it embarrassing that adults are like, ‘Taylor Swift is very talented.’ She’s not. She might be cute, but she’s horrible."

Robinson went on to lambaste the current trend (as he sees it) in the music industry: "They have stylists who dress them, they make records with producers who play a chord into the computer and it all comes out the same… When you have computers doing it all for you… there’s no individuality. Singing isn’t always about being on key; it’s about emotionality."

Taylor Swift is only 20 years old and has already won more awards than a single mantle could hold. She recently released a video for a new single, Mine. Her third album, Speak Now, hits store shelves on October 25.
