This one perhaps the most popular pop star for a while Taylor Swift released a new album on Friday.

On Friday morning, Swift announced that she would release a double album, contrary to previous information, she said, for example The Guardian.
The disk the reception has been positive.
Variety called Swift’s record the most ‘TaylorSwift-like’ Taylor Swift record ever. Rolling Stone again found it “wildly ambitious and brilliantly chaotic”.
of The Guardian says Swift’s new record is the funniest yet most brutal of Swift’s career, and features some of Swift’s sharpest lyrics.
British music magazine NME wasn’t as excited. It wrote that the album was surprisingly flat, confusing at times, and that it lacked the interesting twists that Swift’s music is used to hearing.
In the BBC’s estimation the new album was said to showcase a confused but mean Swift. “The singer is sad and confused. Vulnerable in a way we’ve never heard before,” the review says.
HS’s critic gave the record three stars.
