Taylor

Taylor Swift is that rarest of pop phenomenons: a superstar who managed to fully transition from the traditional to and become a enduring popular icon, and sweeping all over the world at the same time. Swift left her heritage in country music like a second-skin, and revealed she had the finest pop sensibility of her generation. Swift was the only musician/singer to be a part of the trending zeitgeist and take it out on the road. Her talents were apparent in some of her first tracks, including the neodue Tim McGraw. But on the second album Fearless released in 2008 Swift discovered her true identity and gain a wide audience. Fearless ended up being hugely popular not only in America with the Top Ten singles Love Story and Belong with Me helped it to achieve six platinum records but also around the world. It was a huge success throughout Canada Australia and the U.K. Swift's Speak Now album released two years ago consolidated her previous success, and catapulted her into superstardom. With her subsequent three albums, Red (2012) 1989 (2004) and Reputation (2017) and Reputation, the popularity of Swift grew, and she became part of a music scene with a clear sense of where she was a part of. Although she slowed down her work with folklore and Evermore releases in 2020 she was nevertheless leading the way in pop music.
