Kool_Aid_King Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 With TTPD coming out and the lyrics and production being incredibly one-note and getting dragged by fans & average people, do you think Taylor should switch gears from her singer-songwriter bag and work with new producers & new writers to bring out a new project? The legend herself Janet Jackson did so for her #1 album Discipline. After writing and producing most of her songs from the 80s, 90s and 00s, Janet decided to take the backseat and take on some songs that people would send her. Obviously Taylor Swift has songwriting as the core of her artistry, but given some of these lyrics... do you think she could benefit from this sort of approach?

dirrtydiana Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Yes. The "self written" flex is so tired. Like gorl, some people should be using writing camps and it wouldn't hurt if someone else sang the songs too 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New producers, absolutely. Jack is clearly starving for ideas now and while her work with Aaron is quite a bit better I still think that sound will get tired if she continues. New writers, not necessarily. I think Taylor is capable of writing much better material when she doesn't write from an autobiographical perspective (see folklore/evermore). I also think she should probably just release less material...I am enjoying TTPD/The Anthology well enough, but if she had selected maybe the 16 best songs from this project, it would have been received better. There's a clear lack of quality control...I know she likes writing and keeping the fans fed, but some of the songs are just not it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianNicki Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I don't think her songwritting is the problem but I want her to experiment with different production and genres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 She's an incredible songwriter but some of the songs on this new album sound like a parody of herself if that makes sense? And she desperately needs to work with fresh producers for the next record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
