Taylor Swift - reputation (2017)
I surprised myself a little bit when I decided to listen to this album. I haven't listened to a Taylor Swift album in a very long time. So much time that her last previous albums just sort of brushed over me and I didn't even bother listening to them. I heard a few songs from this album before it was released, and for some reason, it piqued my interest. It was sounding like a more haunting and "not giving a ****" attitude" from Taylor Swift, and well, that's exactly what she brought to the table.
This album basically showcases her want to be her own thing, and not something people have been expecting her to be. I completely agree that the Taylor Swift now is vastly different than what we knew years ago, but hey, people change. I'm willing to give people another shot if I know that they were good at one point.
At the end of the day, I have to judge music by the music, and I like the music on this album. The fact that it's Taylor Swift kind of adds to it, to be honest. She really showcases that she wants to do this her own way, and not be confined. Nicely done.
