There's no question that Beyonce is a generation defining artist... but is she really a country music artist?

She's taken home the Grammy for Best Country Music Album, along with the Album of the Year prize, but she wasn't even in the running for any awards at the CMAs.

Senior lecturer at Sydney University, and Australian singer/ songwriter Toby Martin joins John to answer the question - What Is Country Music?

Listen to John Stanley live on air from 8pm Monday to Thursday and 7pm on Friday on 2GB/4BC
