In reply to Glass Ceiling.

A large demography of America is white middle class and country music sells like crazy hence Garth Brooks has the highest album sales since billboard started the Nielsen scan era now add this die hard American fans with teen white girls (and boys ) to a WHITE young “good girl” who is pretty safe and writes relatable but basic lyrics = Taylor Swift ..I bet if she were black and had all the remaining status quo on check she wouldn’t sell half as much as this ; now you see why she trumps Beyoncé in album sales (in the US)
