Taylor Swift released her long-awaited album on Friday. The American singer announced it in February without previewing a single song from it.
But on Wednesday, it was leaked on the Internet. The leak was in doubt because it could not be authentic but rather come from someone else putting together pieces, other music, and other voices. It could be a product of artificial intelligence, one of the most abundant theories, and also a strategy of Swift herself. EL PAS had access to them, and they were complete (they were not fragments) and of the highest quality. Neither Swift nor her team commented on the matter. The 16 songs on TTPD began to move through Telegram groups, and their links were shamelessly shared on Twitter. Despite the 34-year-old American artist's tight control of her career and her narrative, the 16 songs were complete and of a high quality. The album is her 11th studio album with 16 songs, two of them collaborations with Florence + The Machine and Post Malone. It is considered the most anticipated musical release of 2024. The songs are about her own life, as usual, her best material. Stevie Nicks writes a poem to start the album, and the actress Emma Stone appears in the credits of the song. Swift is not the first artist to suffer a major leak. Great artists have gone.
