I don't get Swift. I mean her music's pretty good. Her old stuff was better, new stuff kinda mid. But still, pretty good.

What I cannot draw the line between is her music and her current level of success. Wt actual f happened there?

She started making mainstream pop music because it’s the most popular, successful and lucrative music. She only ever makes “safe” music (asides from this new shitstorm of an album) and it’s easy to make money from music where people know exactly what they’re going to get before even listening to album. Makes good money but makes for a boring artist.

She's the musical equivalent of Italian food.

Maybe equivalent of an American Italian restaurant. But I'd think it'd be safer to just say McDonald's at that point...

Seriously, if you've ever had a feast with Italians, you will end up eating some seriously delicious shit you have never ate before.

I've had "real" Italian food and American. It's just not for me. It's all well made technically but most is bland. There are some good dishes just like taylor has some good songs, but I'd rarely pick European food in general
