Taylor

Taylor Swift, the rarest pop sensation, is one who was able to transcend over from country music to mainstream culture, and has become an iconic figure in the world of pop. The singer also swept every continent during the course of her journey. Swift shed her roots in country music like a second-skin, and revealed that she had the best pop sensibility of her generation. Swift was the only musician/singer to be a part of the trending zeitgeist and take it when she went on tour. Her early songs like the Neotribute for Tim McGraw were a testament to her talents. The second album Fearless of 2008 proved to be the songwriter finding her voice and a wider audience. Fearless wound up having considerable legs not only in the U.S. where it racked seven platinum singles due to the Top Ten hits Love Story and You Belong with Me but throughout the world, with a particular success within Australia, U.K. Canada and Australia. Speak Now delivered almost two years later consolidated that success and moved Swift towards the top of fame. The next three albums she released, Red (2012) 1989 (2004) and Reputation (2017) Reputation (2017), the popularity of Swift grew, and she was able to enter a world of pop music with a clear sense of where she deserved to be. The popularity of her music grew after she reformulated her approach in 2020's more streamlined siblings the folk singer (and Evermore) and stayed at the top of the charts.
