Taylor

Taylor Swift is that rarest of pop phenomenons A superstar who managed to seamlessly transition from the country music scene to and become a enduring pop culture icon and conquering the globe in the process. Swift has shed her country roots as if she was shedding skins for second purposes and has proven herself to be one of one of the best pop singers and songwriters in her generation. She has the ability to harness the current zeitgeist and create her personal. The first songs she released, such as the neotribute to Tim McGraw were a testament to her talent. However, her second album Fearless of 2008 proved to be the songwriter finding her voice and a wider public. Fearless went on to become a global hit and not just in North America (where it earned as platinum six times for Top Ten Hits Love Story as well as "You Belong with Me") however, in Canada, Australia, the U.K. and other countries. Swift managed to build upon her success by releasing Speak Now almost two year after. With the three albums that followed -- Red 2012 1989 2014, and Reputation 2017, Swift's popularity only increased. It was a clear indicator that Swift had entered an entirely new world of pop where she fit in. Her name was always at the top of pop even when she dropped her style with her sibling albums folklore & Evermore in 2020.
