Taylor Swift has won Album of the Year at the Grammys on two separate occasions; once in 2010 with Fearless and again in 2015 with 1989. Now adding to her ongoing list of achievements, Swift won Album of the Year at this year’s Grammys once again for her album folklore released this past July. For many life-long Swifties, this album took a sharp left-turn in terms of style, but that led Swift to ongoing praise for her expertise during such an emotionally trying period of our lives. Swift changed the narrative of songwriting with this release by exploring the different aspects of herself, and writing it through a first-person fictional lens making the album all the more loveable and relatable.
After that major success, Swift didn’t stop there. She then announced her ninth studio album evermore a mere five months later, which she claims to be the “sister record” to folklore.
evermore opened at the top of the Billboard 200, making Swift the only woman in US history to collect eight number one debuts. Recognition continued when she broke the Guinness World Record for the shortest gap between two number one albums made by a female.
A recent Instagram post from the Grammys sent her fans into a frenzy. With a caption of thirteen words, eight words are before the comma, and five words are after the comma, fans suspect a surprise on August 5, 2021. Part of her quarantine team, also known as her collaborators on the folklore album, took on the Grammys with the star. They are seen alongside the female phenomenon in the image she posted on March 15.
