Taylor
Taylor Swift is that rarest of pop phenomenons: a superstar who managed to completely cross over from the traditional to becoming an enduring popular icon, and sweeping the world in the process. Swift shed country like it was an additional layer and proved that she's perhaps the most intelligent pop singer/songwriter of her time. One who can harness the current zeitgeist and make it personal, and be able to perform at the opposite. Swift's talents were apparent in some of the first songs she released, most notably the Neodue Tim McGraw. But on the second album Fearless which came out in 2008, Swift was able to discover who she is and find audiences across the globe. Fearless ended up being an enormous success not just in the US where it's Top Ten singles Love Story as well as You Belong with Me helped it to record six platinum albums but also around the world. It was a huge success in Canada, Australia as well as the U.K. Swift reached the heights of stardom when she released Speak Now. 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 an industry she felt was hers to be. Although she slowed down her work with folklore and Evermore releases in 2020 she was still in the forefront of pop music.
