There are many reasons for the extraordinary success of Taylor Swift: talent, resilience, courage and last but not least a work ethic that is unsurpassed. The country's superstar, which was shot in the landscape, is tireless and exceptionally productive. She was just announced The life of a show girl will be your nine album in full length of the 2020s. And that doesn't even count live albums.
Swift has been a productive and committed artist since she published her debut album of the same name in October 2006. Her longest gap between regular studio albums was just over three years – the gap between 1989 (October 2014) and Call (November 2017).
But she started the pace in the 2020s. When this decade started, Swift had reached six albums of No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and won the first woman to win the Grammy for the album of the year twice as the main artist. One could reasonably think that an artist who had achieved so much success and validation would make the pace a little bit, maybe even take a well -deserved breather. Instead, Swift has doubled her efforts.
Two factors played a role in this explosion of activity. COVID-19, which was officially declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, led Swift to absorb two albums in a faster episode. folklore and his “sister recording”, Always. They were released at a distance of less than five months in 2020.
And Swift's wish to regain control of her artistic heritage caused her to resume four of her early albums. These new admissions have not slowed down the pace of new studio albums. Swift somehow found the time and energy to switch between new albums and resumes.
In addition to these nine new and newly recorded albums, Swift published two live albums in the 2020s. Folklore: The Long Pond Studio meetings And Lovers (life from Paris). (Technically there was a third party: Live from Clear Channel Stripped 2008 was released in April 2020 without Swift's consent. Swift condemned the publication in her social media accounts bluntly and called it “shameless greed in the time of Coronavirus” and asked the fans not to buy or stream the album. They were right: the album flopped.)
Almost every talent cout will say that talent is not enough to achieve and maintain success in the music business. A strong will to success and the willingness to do everything that needs is just as important. You can call it a “work ethic”. Swift has it in spade.
