Taylor Swift - The Tortured Poets Department ALBUM REVIEW

If Taylor would have dropped this album in the 1830s but without all the racists you would have given it a 10

We got Taylor Swift saying Fortnite, Grand Theft Auto and Down Bad before GTA 6

She needs to stop working with jack antinoff and work with metro boomin for her next album

“There’s a difference between enjoying Taylor's albums for their music and their performances and their narratives, or enjoying them because you're deeply entrenched in the Taylor-verse and your obsessively combing through the lyrics on each song like the convoluted plot of the 30th marvel sequel” Bingo

Wow without a low rating we'll never get to find out Anthony's home address now

Charlie Puth should not be a bigger artist

Anthony after pissing off Kanye fans and Swifties in the same year: I'm playing on both sides so that I will always come out on top

Great point about this album feeling like a 30th marvel sequel. As a Taylor fan but not a marvel fan this really helped me understand how regular people probably feel about this album and other taylor swift lore/works lately. Even as a fan I didn't love this album. If anything I caught myself trying to untangle who the songs are about because they were so dull on their own that i quickly switched to their pop-cultural value instead of their artistic value. it's a shame but taylor has a history of self correcting and i hope thats what she'll do after this album cycle. fingers crossed

A dude who's messed with Kanye West fans in 2024 has nothing to fear and nothing to lose from swifties

Artists like Taylor Swift and Kanye West continue to push the boundaries of what a “fantano” review can be👍

i thought jack antonoff was a fake name middle schoolers came up with. like mike hawk, joe mama or candice.

I'd be excited to see her collaborate with someone other than Jack tbh.

Anthony obviously didnt pick up the nuances in lyrics like “touch me while your bros play gta”

I have nothing against Taylor or her fans but I want her to make a rap album just to see how far her fans will defend her

huge disappointment. poorly mastered/engineered, and sonically stagnant. i was hoping for SO much better but it’s like she’s trapped in some kind of blood oath with jack, which wouldn’t be so bad if they could artistically progress, but evidently they can’t. they both need to stop working together and trust that other collaborators may be able to help them make better art.

I'm a swiftie and i agreed with a lot of the points you made. I think the problem is how rewarded she is for exploring her personal lofe, if people valued the art more than the gossip that would be the focus

Can we just acknowledge how much Cal’s been around as of late? It’s been nice to see him around, missed that silly little guy

The Tortured Listeners Department

As a big Taylor fan I agree with every point. I was so disappointed. Even with the songs that are decent like loml have a weird cringy lyric inserted in there like “Mr. Steal your girl” that completely takes me out of it. Folklore and evermore are my favorites from her and I keep going back to them time and time again. I’m worried at this point that her fantastic writing in those records were an anomaly for that point in her career.

Jack is committed to DROWING Florence Welch's vocals. Thats unacceptable.
