Genre:

Country pop

Country pop, also known as urban cowboy, is a fusion genre combining country and pop music to appeal to a mainstream audience. Originating from the Nashville sound in the late 1950s, it evolved into Countrypolitan in the 1970s. Country pop blends rock, pop, and country elements, leading to chart success on both country and mainstream charts. It declined during the 1980s neotraditional movement but resurged in the 1990s with influences from pop rock and adult contemporary. In the 2010s, it incorporated hip-hop beats and rap-style phrasing, further broadening its appeal.
