Cyrus kicked off their joint interview, talking about how her Disney Channel past and her time on11/16/2021
“The controversy that we have that’s very similar is right now taking this transitional time in my career to do what I feel I was meant to do, which is rock music. It wasn’t something that was easily going to open its door to me because of my history, coming from a kids star, being on a TV show, wearing a wig — you don’t picture that being the person that plays with Metallica,” Cyrus explained.
Cyrus then asked Guyton what her personal experiences were within the country world, and the 37-year-old revealed that she initially tried hard to mold herself in order to fit in. As such, Guyton made sure that her debut studio album,Trending on Billboard “This record’s goal was to write music that was true to me and to write country music from a Black person’s perspective, and my country music is so different than somebody else’s. There’s this box that women in country music are supposed to fit in but then add on a Black woman, and the box is even smaller than the box,” Guyton shared. “I was given this little tiny box that was allotted to make some noise, but not too much noise.
She continued, “At that point, I had absolutely nothing to lose because I never had the acceptance of this town in the first place. And so I just literally wiped my slate clean. I had a really honest conversation with my husband. I asked him why country music wasn’t working for me and he said because I’m running away from everything that makes me different. He called me out so hard. Like it was a gut punch.
