Country music legend George Jones has some pretty harsh words for the likes of Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. In an article posted on The Boot George is quoted as saying:

“They’ve stolen our identity.” And, he maintains, they need to give it back and move on to another genre. “They had to use something that was established already, and that’s traditional country music. So what they need to do really, I think, is find their own title, because they’re definitely not traditional country music.”

George isn’t crapping out on all of country music, he says there is still some hope with Alan Jackson and George Strait still topping the charts.

I guess there is no teaching this old dog new tricks.
