Known for his witty lyrics (\u201cDry Spell<\/a>\u201d comes to mind) and no-frills attitude, Kacey Musgraves is opening up about the creative journey behind her latest album,\u00a0Middle of Nowhere<\/em>, which she completed by sticking to her guns and being true to herself, something she\u2019s adhered to from the beginning of her career.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In a recent interview<\/a>, the Texas native shared,\u00a0\u201cIt may not look like everyone else\u2019s, and\u00a0I think I\u00a0went in with a lot of fear that the business or the industry would really try\u00a0and like\u00a0change that. So, I think just having the balls early on to go okay,\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0fine if\u00a0you\u2019re\u00a0not into this, the label, whoever you know, but this is where my heart is, and this is what I want to do.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Kacey Musgraves Returns to Her Roots\u00a0\u00a0<\/h2>\n

After releasing albums with pop influence, Musgraves returned to her\u00a0country\u00a0roots for her seventh studio album. \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve made this kind of big circle, when I really stand back and look, and I don\u2019t think it was even really fully intentional,\u201d she admitted. \u201cI mean,\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0always trying to find ways to pull the traditional country in because\u00a0that\u2019s\u00a0where my heart is.\u00a0That\u2019s\u00a0what I grew up with.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0familiar to me. It feels like home,\u201d \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

She added, \u201cBut, you know, I love so\u00a0many different kinds of\u00a0music. Like, you catch me on any day, and I could be listening to Dr. Dre, or I could be listening to old beautiful jazz or traditional mariachi music. I mean, it just really depends on my mood, so\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0all these\u00a0different flavors. But\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0always looking to bring country along with me in some way.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

She might have experimented with other sounds and collaborated with artists from different genres. Musgraves shared that she will not leave country music. \u201cI love country music with my whole heart. I have never been like, \u2018I\u2019m leaving country,\u2019 whatever\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0just I adore that I have the creative freedom since day one.\u00a0I\u2019ve\u00a0had the freedom to\u00a0kind of explore\u00a0the borders and pull people into country, not leave country.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

She explained, \u201cTo me, I see it as I am bringing others to my center.\u00a0That\u2019s\u00a0my center. I\u00a0couldn\u2019t\u00a0leave it even if I wanted to. I mean, it is baked in, but I am more like multifaceted than just that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
