Taylor Swift

 Taylor Alison Swift, born 13 December 1989 is an American musician and singer. Swift's discography covers a variety of styles. Her narrative songwriting frequently influenced by her personal experiences is receiving a great deal of public attention and praise from critics. Swift was born in West Reading, Pennsylvania and moved to Nashville when she was fourteen. She signed a songwriting deal with Sony/ATV Music Publishing in 2004 and a recording contract with Big Machine Records in 2005. Her 2006 self-titled debut album made her the first female country performer to co-write or write an US platinum-certified album entirely.Swift's next albums, Fearless (2008) and Speak Now (2010), explored country pop. The latter's "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me" were the first songs by a country artist to reach the top of the US pop and all-genre airplay charts, respectively. She explored electronic and rock styles in her album Red (2012) the album that included the debut Billboard Hot 100 number-one song, "We Are Never Ever Coming Back Together", and eschewed her traditional image on her synth-pop album, 1989 (2014), supported by chart-topping tracks "Shake It Off", "Blank Space", and "Bad Blood". The skepticism of the media inspired her album Reputation (2017) as well as its top-charting single "Look What You Made Me Do".

Swift quit Big Machine in 2018, and was signed to Republic Records. In 2019, Swift released Lover (2019) which was followed shortly by Miss Americana (2020). Swift delved into indie folk and alternative rock in her 2020 albums Folklore and Evermore which featured two singles "Cardigan" and "Willow" made it to the top of the Hot 100. After a dispute over her masters Swift started to record six albums. Swift re-released two of them in 2021, Fearless (Taylor’s version) and Red. The Hot 100's longest-running song was the version of the latter "All Too Well (10 minute version)". Her tenth album Midnights (2022) and the single "Anti-Hero" has broken a variety of streaming records. Swift has self-directed music videos and films, such as All Too Well: The Short Film (2021) and also played the role of a supporting character in several other films.
