Taylor
Taylor Swift is that rarest of pop stars: an artist who could totally transition from her country roots to become an enduring pop culture icon and then conquering the world in the process. Swift removed her roots in the country as if they were just a second skin, revealing she was possibly the most savvy contemporary singer/songwriter in her generation one that could tap into popular culture and turn it into something personal while also able to do in the opposite direction. Swift's first hit songs, particularly her neo tribute to Tim McGraw, showed off her skills. However, her album Fearless revealed a songwriter who was re-discovering herself and was attracting a wide audience. Fearless was a huge success not just in America where six of its singles were certified platinum on the backs of Top Ten hit songs Love Story and you Belong with Me. But it also did well across the globe. Speak Now delivered almost two years later, which consolidated the success and helped propel Swift towards the top of superstardom. She grew in popularity over the course of three following albums, Red (2012) in addition to 1989 (2014) and Reputation (2017) as well as she was established as a genre where she belonged. Her music remained on highest of the pop charts even as she reduced her sound through her albums with folklore in the year 2020, and Evermore.
