Luke Bryan has found himself in the middle of a controversy involving a country music legend.

Last week he was interviewed about his music and his life saying,

“I’m not an outlaw country singer. I don’t do cocaine and run around. So I’m not going to sing outlaw country,”

The comments were taken by some as being particularly negative to country music legends such as Willie NelsonMerle Haggard and Waylon Jennings. However Jennings' family took particular offense at the comments. Luke has gone onto Twitter to clear up the controversy.

Hey guys I've been thinking about this all day, every now and then I feel I need to defend myself in this business. I did a great interview
