Taylor

Taylor Swift has become a uncommon pop sensation: A superstar who crossed over completely from country music to pop culture, turning into the pop icon of the future that will endure forever, and sweeping over every corner of the globe. Swift has shed her country roots like she was shedding skins for second purposes showing herself to be the smartest pop singer/songwriter in her generation. Swift is able to harness the current zeitgeist and create her personal. The skills she displayed could be seen in her first tracks, including the neodue Tim McGraw. But on her sophomore album Fearless released in 2008 Swift was able to discover the person she was and reach audiences across the globe. Fearless was a huge success worldwide, not only in the United States (where it earned six times platinum for the Top Ten Hits Love Story as well as "You Belong with Me") as well as in Canada Australia and the U.K. and many other countries. Speak Now delivered almost two years later consolidated that popularity and pushed Swift to the heights of stardom. She grew in popularity over the course of her subsequent three albums: Red (2012) 1989 (2014) and Reputation (2017). Swift was now firmly established within a genre where she belonged. Although she slowed down her approach with 2020's stripped-down sister album folklore, and Evermore she was still atop the charts, a place she maintained with re-recordings of her older catalogs as well as Midnights the top charting synth heavy 2022 album.
