Chapter Thirteen: My Only One

A little while ago, I tried to listen to some music from some artists. I listened to Bebe Rexha, Nicki Minaj, MARINA, Lana Del Rey, ZAYN, Harry Styles, BTS, BlackPink and Ed Sheeren. I listened to “Expectations”, “Pink Friday”, “Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land”, “Ultraviolence”, “No Body Is Listening”, “Fine Line”, “Blue & Grey,” “How You Like That” and “=”. I realized that no singer or artist will ever be my favorite, or make me as happy as Taylor has. Taylor Swift has been put through so much terrible bullshit and I am going to explain it, she is the best songwriter. After her sophomore album “Fearless” she showed people just that- so much so; that they accused her of having other people write all her songs. When she won an award for it, Kanye West climbed his dumbass on the stage and took the mic from her, telling her and the whole world; that another person deserved the award instead. The fucking disarespect. So, in 2009/2010, she wrote an album “Speak Now” and it was entirely self written, no one added anything to it, except the production, of course. After “Speak Now”, Taylor was in a relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal and he completely took advantage of her, after this; she decided to write “RED” explaining her side, and creating some amazing heart-wrenching lyrics, I’ve already written an entire chapter on this one so I’m not going to go in too much detail, but it's great. After “RED” the media decided to harass Taylor, paparazzi chasing her everywhere, people wanting to know shit about her personal life, they started saying she’s a “serial dater” whatever the fuck that means, and they were being so immature and so stupid for no fucking reason. She also said that her music is changing into POP too much, so she can’t So, in 2014, she decided she was going to make a POP album.
