Taylor Swift is having a historic week on Billboardâs charts (dated May 4). On top of earning her 14th career No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 with The Tortured Poets Department, she sets numerous new records across Billboardâs charts, including on the Billboard Hot 100.
âThe Tortured Poets Departmentâ: All the Records Taylor Swiftâs New Album Has BrokenâŚ
As previously reported, the set launches at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 2.61 million equivalent album units earned in its opening week, according to Luminate. Thatâs the second-biggest week by that metric since Billboard began measuring the weekâs most popular albums by equivalent album units in 2014, after Adeleâs 25 (3.482 million, Dec. 12, 2015).
As Swift earns her 14th career Billboard 200 No. 1 album, she ties Jay-Z for the most among soloists. Overall, only The Beatles have more (19).

it's gotten so deranged that someone tweeted that being a swiftie in 2024 is like a jewish person during 1938...

I think the problem with the internet is that everything exists in hyperbole. you canât just say you dislike something, you have to say âthis is garbageâ or âthis is the worst thing iâve ever heard,â which will automatically make fans of that thing defensive because it feels like that person is attacking them and their interests. Like, in the Paste article, the author makes jokes about how her âpoetryâ is essentially unpolished and bad, meaning that anyone who relates to it might feel as though their intelligence and feelings are being insulted (and that might make them want to attack). Everyone definitely has a right to share their opinion and why they dislike something, but I think we get into tricky territory when we start making moral judgments. And the same applies in the reverse, with fans that make moral judgments about all âhaters.â The internet would be a much nicer place to be if people could just say they like something or dislike something without it turning into a grand statement about whether something is âobjectivelyâ good or bad.

What you said about how Taylor is better at writing fiction is so true. She's an amazing story teller, and I think that it really shines in fictional songs where she's not tethered to the confines of her popularity and celebrity status.
Because it's not just that fiction can be more relatable for a not famous person, she just has so much more creative freedom when she doesn't HAVE to talk about romance, or the specific romance that she's dealing with. I think I just wasn't very interested in hearing vague songs about what Taylors going through romantically. She has every right to want to sing about it and put her thoughts into words, I just personally find her music is more poetic and meaningful when she steps out of what she goes through normally.

i feel like a lot of the big pop acts have been making lackluster albums because they arent hungry anymore and know that their fans will go above and beyond to defend it

I'm a hardcore OG Swiftie, however, I'm not that big of a fan of this new album. I like it, but she definitely can do better than this. Also, I'm getting tired of those swifties who put Taylor on a pedestal and think a critique = attack. Ngl, sometimes it's so embarrassing to be a swiftie and it has nothing to do with Taylor.

Took the words right outta my mouth. "A lore-dump for die-hard fans to decipher." THIS!! I'm a fan of Taylor's music, but I'm not an "easter-eggs" fan. I don't want to hear coded messages about her ex bfs or Kim K. And i feel that TTPD is swallowed in easter eggs that i don't care about.

What I really feel discouraged by is that you canât even create a video sharing your thoughts about something without kind of proving that you like something/someone by listing all the aspects you like about them. And I get it, the stans are insanely protective of their idols - when your admiration of a person/brand prevents convo about it that is more analytical or critical of that thing, than itâs no longer about admiration, itâs obsession. Thank you for sharing your thoughts because itâs healthy to do so!

I just hate that we can't just say that an album is "fine" or "mid". It has to be "GENIUS" or "SH*T" for reviews to work nowadays, and both her hardcore fans and haters are more focus on shouting what they think than really judge the music itself.
235 |
In general, I think releasing a 31 track new album is a huge mistake, especially if all the songs sort of blend together. 7-12 track albums work because they give people a bite size taste of the artist and the tracks themselves get more attention; I really think she shot herself in the foot with that

I'm a Taylor Swift fan and I definitely agree that nuanced reviews, whether positive or critical, should always be welcome.

As a swiftie, this album is not the best. I think there's a point in the album where I get lost. Yes, I did like the album but as a massive fan of other albums, this one is weaker. Also, while I like her music a lot, it is too long. Folklore is my favorite album and I will say that one is her absolute best album. It is not about her and yet, it feels hugely personal and raw. Shout out to evermore that is also fantastic. TTPD is an okay album but it's not the best. And Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus is ridiculously underrated.

Taylor is definitely overexposed right now so that's feeding into it. I feel like this should have been released after the eras tour finished or after her next rerecording.
173 |
I wish Taylor had dedicated herself to only rereleasing her TV albums for at least 4-5 years, especially because fans are already getting vault songs theyâd never heard before. But when sheâs releasing all her re-recordings with previously unreleased work AND new albums itâs forcing her to write completely new material when itâs clear sheâs creatively drained.
The fact that she even decided to surprise release TTPD as a double album shows sheâs so high on the praise sheâs been receiving the past few years that she lost perspective. No one was asking for a double album, they just wanted it to be good.
Taylor lives for the charts and the awards now, but itâs at the cost of her own fans getting tired of her material.

i feel like sheâs in drake mode rn (no wonder theyâre good friends lol) views was mid, and instead of him doing better, he just made one of the worst albums of 2018 (scorpion), then just keeps getting consistent at making dogwater after he stopped using ghostwriters /hj. MIDnights is the views of her catalog, and ttpd is 100% the scorpion. itâs just the beginning.
251 |
Midnights winning AOTY was frustrating, but if this album wins next year then I'm no longer tuning into that portion of the grammys. There's no point if they're going to pick Taylor every time.
682 |
you put into words exactly how I felt about this situation. I like a lot of Taylor's music, but I want to be able to critique even my favorite artists without being crucified for it. there's no reason to worship these musicians the way we are.
68 |
Large segments of the Beyhive, Barbs, and Swifties as fandoms scare me lol. Any genuine critique, constructive thoughts/feedback, or any opinion you give that is not positive & involves breathing results in pitchforks. If you are a 'fan' making death threats you need serious help. Great video, Kayla!

I don't think this is a bad album at all, but I think there's a few reasons it was underwhelming. Â
one reason was that it was just too many songs. it's hard to make an album cohesive when its two hours of music
another is that it was probably pretty rushed. I mean I'm assuming most of this was composed and recorded during her tour, re-recordings, promotion for her movie, etc, not to mention her breakup. I'm not sure why she didn't take more time on it. I think she still has this fear that she will become irrelevant as she gets older, but I really don't think that will be true for her but maybe that is why she wanted to release it during the height of her fame.
The main reason in my opinion, though, is that the songs aren't always very interesting musically. I don't think the songs themselves are bad, at least most of them I thought were good songs. but its all just a beat, some harmonies, and instrumentation that sounds kind of dull or in the background. I think if more interesting things were happening musically, the perception of the album would be a LOT different.
the last is that Taylor is the most famous person in the world right now basically so. people expect a lot from her

Iâm a swiftie but this album was so mid. She put so many strange lyrics that makes the songs sound more like poems put to a melody, which I get is the point of the album but she just doesnât do it in a way the works well.

I'm more shocked that she let Matty Healy get to her that much. I thought it was a fling and she was having fun.
