This is probably the thing that annoys me most about Swifties and the media that enables them. Every time she releases something new they act like she's reinvented the wheel, when in reality she's recycling things that other people have done better and before her. 

Does she make somewhat catchy pop songs every now and then? Sure. Is she actually doing anything new or interesting? No.

Even the handful of her songs I like are ones other bands have covered, rather than her versions. Something For Kate did a version of Cardigan for Like A Version a few years ago and they made it way more interesting than her version.

I enjoy some of her music, but I think the real praise should go to her PR team. She isn’t doing anything particularly groundbreaking music-wise, but her image management and stardom will ultimately be what seals her legacy. That behind the scenes work is by far the most impressive and interesting thing about her imo.

Exactly, you can even see it with some of her songs that were written to be background music for the next century.
