This was building for years. She should've disappeared for a while.

I don't get her obsession to release non stop other than money. She is no different than Ed Sheeran at this point who kept putting out music and the music just got worse as he went on.

She doesn't have the talent to survive a hiatus, she needs to desperately saturate the market and media in order to stay relevant enough to maintain her fanbase or she will fade fast. She knows this. It's the same reason McDonald's releases new happy meal toys. Staying in the conversation can stretch dumb luck if you don't actually have a leg to stand on of substance.

The GP doesn't care and twitter is a bubble. It's not doing anything to her on the charts.

Girl won a Directors (Made Up) Award and then premiered some 50 shades of grey wanna be BS.

She doesnt have one memorable video in her catalogue hence why she doesn't have a MTV vanguard award

BYE. Case closed

People love M&Ms, but they are very disappointing as a chocolate option.

Yes. She's very overexposed and has it sounds like she's releasing the same music over and over. It wasn't like that before during her pop eras.

well haters have NO LIVES WHATSOEVER so....she doesn't care

Madonna and Pedo Jackson didn't receive "universal unquestionable" praise every Album bffr. By your own logic Madonna's discography won't stand the test of time aside from Ray of Light.

Madonna has true blue erotica, like a prayer, bedtime, ray of light, music, confessions 1 & 2 and american life is getting its deserved acclaim these days.

You clearly have no idea what youre talking about.

is it real backlash when she's still doing crazy numbers for four new songs. backlash needs to come harder to knock some senses into her dense head

With a big catalogue of hit singles and albums, it's very normal that people expect more from her and oftentimes compare her new material with her old songs. Also, it seems like there is a hate train towards her, as whatever she releases will be criticised. So yeah, there are two sides to the backlash now: one is the real pressure and expectation that GP and her fans have, and two is the irrational hate (perhaps because of her overexposure, I don't know).

I don't think the four new songs are that bad, or that offensive, to receive that hate. But on the flip side, perhaps they sound too familiar, and their lyrics/topics were also utilised in her previous songs (perhaps, in a better way).

It's difficult to be Taylor Swift in 2026, and this challenge/backlash is different from what she faced in 2016 and 2017 during the release of Reputation. But I believe that she will overcome it, the same way that she did back in the day during her Reputation era.

It's valid, because she's a Zionist Republican who's too afraid to speak up for Gaza.

Yes, in addition to the precipitous drop in quality, it's her greed and abuse of her power and influence that made people sick of her. The variants, the constant spamming of slop, the blocking other girls because of petty high school grievances. Mainstream outlets are catching on, it's not just stan bubble.

it should be worse tbh

Her backlash was valid and this could hit her in long run legacy wise

It is valid? Yes. Taylor has put out much better bodies of work so the criticism of her lackluster releases and tone deaf offerings is 100% legit.

Do I think it will affect her? Not as much as it would a smaller artist. Taylor's flops still pull numbers that some artists could only dream of. That said, if she doesn't course correct soon it could start to affect her longevity. She'll still be more successful than most of our favs though so…

Yes for calling out her "yes give us nothing" energy and No for it being so belated, i really don't know why it took so long for people to realise she's so unseasoned and artistically bankrupt

It's absolutely valid. This is the worst thing she's ever released, and it's not even close.
