When she literally says her cowboy Carter album is not a country album why does everyone freak out that she wasn't nominated?

She really need to stay in her lane it doesn’t even sound like country country music gone to shit now days

[Basque-Aragon]

I never saw a more narcissistic singer in my life. She thinks being rich makes her perfect at everything. That's what happens when you are surrounded by people paid to build your ego everyday

People are dumb Beyonce is from Houston Texas every country artists must play here Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo., I don't like country music's

[juliekowalski]

I do have to ask a sincere question… If this is not supposed to be a country album, then why would you apply to have the distinction in the Academy of country music? It’s an honest question.
This has nothing to do with race, color, sexual orientation, etc.… I just want to know if it is genuine country music or not. Each genre of music has its own nuances and specific qualities. Crossovers are hard. Beyoncé is a genius in her work in hip-hop and R&B . When I think of country, I think of prison and love, lost and broken relationships and steel, guitars, and heart-wrenching twang.
