Taylor Owns Her Masters Now

So, we're also spared the re-recording of the debut, right?

RIGHT??
 
The Taylor's Versions:

What do you mean, what was the point? She sold an absolute shitload and galvanized her fan base in a way I don;t think I've ever seen before. The whole scheme has been an absolute win-win.
 
I think the Taylor Versions worked because not only did she sell a ton she also reduced the value of the originals in the process so when it came time to buy them (if she got the chance) they would cost her a lot less.

She and her team knew exactly what they were doing.
 
I Can finally stream the original 1989 without any guilt now :disco: Fuck u Scooter.
When I tell you he is the biggest bitch baby lol

My fave interaction was I replied to a post about “what would you do if Scooter was drowning” which he wasn’t tagged in and I simply said “clap” and he immediately sent me this in a DM

On the one hand, I’m pleased for her. On the other hand, she’s typed a letter in a font which resembles handwriting so, really, no punishment is too harsh.
 
She ties her own record again, charting 11 albums on the Billboard 200 this week after buying back her masters. It is the first time the debut charted since Red was released 13 years ago:

Swift charts 11 albums on the latest Billboard 200, tying her career weekly best. Here’s a look, with re-entries noted:

No. 5, Reputation
No. 18, The Tortured Poets Department
No. 30, Lover
No. 50, Midnights
No. 52, Folklore
No. 61, 1989 (Taylor’s Version)
No. 64, Taylor Swift (re-entry)
No. 73, 1989 (re-entry)
No. 147, Red (Taylor’s Version)
No. 170, Speak Now (re-entry)
No. 185, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) (re-entry)

This is the 31st total week that Swift has charted 11 albums simultaneously. The only artists to chart more in a single week — since the list was combined from its previously separate mono and stereo album charts into one all-encompassing ranking in August 1963 — are Prince (who charted 19 albums after he died in 2016, plus 13 the week after that) and the Beatles (14 albums simultaneously for a week in 2010 and 13 during a week in 2014). —Xander Zellner
