Taylor

Taylor Swift may be the most unusual of pop artists: one who could effortlessly bridge the gap between pop and country while sweeping the globe. Swift has thrown off her country roots as if they were second skins, and has proven herself to be one of one of the best pop singers and songwriters of her time. She has the ability to harness the current zeitgeist and create her personal. The first songs she released including the neotribute in tribute to Tim McGraw were a testament to her talents. But, her follow-up album Fearless from 2008 showed a songwriter finding her voice and a wider audience. Fearless was a huge success and not just in the US and six of the singles were declared platinum, on top of Top Ten hit songs Love Story and You Belong with Me. But the album also enjoyed a great reception across all over the world. Swift was able to consolidate her progress through Speak Now almost two year following. The next three albums she released, Red (2012) 1989 (2004) and Reputation (2017), the popularity of Swift grew, and she was able to enter the world of pop music where it was clear that she deserved to be. When she reduced her sound by releasing stripped-down albums like 2020, Folklore, and Evermore but she was still in the top spot. This position was maintained through re-recordings of her previous catalog, as in Midnights which was her chart-topping synth heavy 2022 album.
