I’m sorry but the people complaining about a songwriter and recording artist who’s INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL continuing to write songs and record music… y’all have got to have been dropped on the head as a baby. She’s literally doing her job. Do y’all scream at the mail man for continuing to deliver your mail

I'd be pretty pissed at the mail man if the mailbox was full and they just kept dropping mail on the ground

She’s gonna break every record with this one. I feel it will be bigger than folklore. I just love her.

give me an album full of maroons, don't blame me, afterglow, dancing with our hands tied, false god, labryinth, so it goes, say don't go, dress 

Oh God, an Afterglow stan I can’t believe how underrated that song is.

As excited I am about a new album, I was hoping on Reputation next. We'll see.

Now I hope that not every track is produced by Jack Antonoff.

honestly ENOUGH already. HOW is she not overexposed at this point???

She is unfortunately. I see a lot more hate comments recently.

Don't care. Love her to death.

She's keeping us fans FED.

[r4therupbeat 1,587]

she deserves all the success she gets because like she said she loves, writing, recording and performing and doesn't do things for awards. Which is literally who Gaga was years ago...

[EberGaga 51]

But her music is just NO to me… I don't know why and there's no breakthrough and just boring, no matter how many songs she wanna release.

[OMonster 14,638]

Taylor is THE artist of our generation. She is an absolute powerhouse. 

I feel some of the hate in here is fuelled by jealousy. We could only wish for Gaga to be half as passionate about and active in her music career as Taylor is. 

No one comes close to Taylor's commitment to music. 

Yes, she's releasing a lot of albums. But our fave - who once had the potential to have a similar trajectory to Taylor - releases makeup every month. What would you prefer? And, honestly, what's more exploitive of music fans?

There is nothing 'exploitive' about Taylor releasing music for an audience of music fans. It's truly incredible what she's doing with her career and how much she caters to her fans.

TBH this type of release schedule was pretty common in the 70s, 80s, and 90s which are kind of considered the golden decades for music

Also important to remember that touring was nothing in comparison to how it is now. Especially in the 70s & 80s. 
So it's kind of insane that Taylor is managing to match the rollouts while being on the biggest ever Stadium tour by a female act. 

That said, i've seen in the thread someone say she's claimed she's sat on this album for 2 years. The re-recordings were almost definitely all completed awhile ago, so maybe pre-Eras tour she just banked up the 4 TVs + Midnights & Tortured Poet's Dept

Worse as the Covid pandemic and leaves you more ill when infected by it. Stay safe y’all. We will have good music again by talented people.

Folklore literally saved the music industry during Covid

The sound of silence was very welcome during this hectic moment. Nah, I’m just kidding. Happy for her annoying fans. Enjoy y’all.

I'd disagree. I wouldn't see her as the „artist" of our generation, she certainly is the music industry of our gen, but thats about it in my opinion. 

There definitely has been some form of jealousy on my side when she really started with the TV's and folklore, because i wanted Gaga to give us more as well, but at this point now I just cant keep up with Taylor anymore. I need time to breath with new music, i need to connect to it, to connect it to my life and link it to own experiences, so i can look back at it a few years later and remember 'me with the music'. And i feel the constant push of new/reworked material just doesn't provide the space to do so. 

Ja, im kinda pissed that we dont have more gaga content (music/film wise) but still, seeing MTN MV or Perfect Illusion Sukkiri performance brings me so hard back to these times, that its still standing strong for me. 

I used to have the same with Taylor, for Red, 1989 and folklore, but the rest is just a generic blur for me. 

 

anywayyyyy happy monday y'all
