Maren Morris Claps Back at Critics Who Claim She's Not Country Enough After Her CMA Wins

Maren Morris‘s critics are probably eating their own words right now.

The 29-year-old musician has long been in the middle of an argument with some fans on if she was truly a country artist or not.

Maren won three awards at the 2020 CMA Awards this week, including Female Vocalist of the Year and put the argument of if she was country to rest.

“I still can get hurt when people claim I’m ‘not country’,” Maren wrote in a tweet following her mega wins at the show.

While she can still get hurt over critics’ opinions on her genre, Maren added that “when I stood there accepting @cma Song of the Year, I realized it is much harder to forge your own path & sound than attempt to be a knock off of someone who’s already pioneered the genre. Thank you for accepting me.”

Maren also picked up the Single of the Year and Song of the Year for “The Bones”.

If you missed it, Maren dedicated her wins to these amazing people…
