12 Candidates for career transition (Fearless comes out Nov.11)
Taylor Swift is already one of country music’s most popular stars/ Crossover Votes would evaluate her status even more.
The transition: Swift wants to move from her current position as a teen-star phenom to being a core country artist for the next decade of so. If she picks up a few crossover hits along the way, she won’t complain about that, either.
The mission: To build upon the 3.5 million fans who brought her 2006 self-titled debut. To do that, she’ll need to hold the attention of an extreamly young audiance while adding adult country fans. Additionaly, smart alliances with other acts can ease her introduction into the music mainstream.
The Ammunition: Already, she’s among country’s most popular act; Carrie Underwood is the only woman country radion has played most offten this year. Swift is one of the few country acts who intrinsically understands the value of Internet audiance development. Some songs from Fearless already have online lives: Nearly 100 girls have recorded themselves performing the title track. Breathe is a collaborative with Colbie Caillat; Swift also contributes a song to Kellie Pickler’s new album and sang with the Jonas Brothers for their upcoming concert movie.

It means that Taylor’s career is just so amazing and succesful that she is going to be moving up to a better and a little more challenging career. Or at least i think that’ s what it means. Like i said, i found it in a newspaper.
