of the most influential artists of our era, compared to great artists like Michael
Jackson for prestigious magazines like The Rolling Stone, however, his great fame and
talent has made her go through a tumultuous path full of criticism that masks the

and sacrifices, raising the question of whether she is really a talented artist or has relied on
good luck during your 19 years of musical career.

Theoretical Framework
Taylor Swift, like every artist in the industry, receives, received, and will receive criticism during
her entire career, however, she is very clear that this will not define her.
always, many people all over the internet declare that if Swift is famous it is thanks to
some of the men who attacked her, thus taking on a more misogynistic tone.
Since her debut in 2006 with a country album, Taylor Swift began to gain notoriety.
during his career he has been involved in conflicts of all kinds, when at the age of 19
years, during the 2009 VMAs Kanye West went on stage to interrupt her
thank you speech for your award and to say that you did not deserve it, the massive hate that
received during 2016, forcing her to withdraw for a while and also when
In June 2019, all of her discography and rights to her masters were sold without her
authorization, losing power over them, not to mention others.
However, we must take into account the fact that with their first album they debuted in the
number 5 on the Billboard 200 thanks to its sale of 40,000 copies, won its first 2
Grammys in 2010 and 10 more during the rest of their career, among many other awards.

self-employed, she has shone on her own, she never needed to attack other artists for no reason,
and even when the world was against him and his career was seemingly
finished, she returned with an album titled "Reputation", an album which sold 1,216,000
copies in the first week, making us question the same doubt: is she talented or

Development of the research
1. Beginnings - Taylor Swift grew up in a home that loved music, being called
Taylor in honor of James Taylor; she showed her artistic talents from a young age.
showed a love for poetry, writing, acting, and music as he was able to
find a way to express your emotions, create stories and propose
problems. At the age of 10, he wrote a poem titled 'A Monster in My Closet!'
(a monster in my closet) which won a national poetry contest, this was
the sign she needed to start writing, she loved the idea of capturing
everything on a piece of paper, later this would guide her in the same way to delve into music.
His love for her grew more when he learned to play the guitar and began to
write his own songs, after a while he realized that he wanted
dedicating herself to that, supported by her parents she managed to reach Nashville to find
new opportunities, when moving Taylor sang in all the places that were
possible, attracting the attention of talent scouts, along with her mother handed out in
different record labels their songs in the hope of being called back.
At just 15 years old, she got her first contract with Big Machine Records, this
because it was a small discography which allowed him greater creative freedom.
In 2006 she released her first album titled 'Taylor Swift', creating a path with no return.
back, unbeknownst to her, Taylor had begun to write her own rise, by 2008.
she released her second album 'Fearless', showing a great evolution in her style,
mixing elements of country and pop, which further expanded their audience.
2. Her music - Throughout her career, Taylor experimented with different genres.
musicals (country, pop, jazz, rock, folk, among others), she has always made it very clear
of course he loves to reflect himself in his lyrics, showing feelings that are not always
they are represented in the songs, thus creating lyrics suitable for any
occasion. She has explained that she loves to write from a very perspective
Personally, for Taylor, her lyrics are a way of showing herself vulnerable to others.
world, talking about situations that have meant something important in their
life, the death of a very important person (Marjorie), a relationship in which
you can show yourself vulnerable to that person without fearing judgment
nothing), the misogyny and machismo that women face day by day (the man)
even a song that talks about karma and how she is at peace because she knows
that all the people who hurt her will receive the same at some point (karma).
Taylor not only uses her lyrics to reflect feelings, but also
instrumentals in their songs also do this, an example of this is the
representation of anxiety in the song, the beat of the song and
the choir is out of sync, referencing the irregular heartbeats of a person
who suffers from anxiety. Swift's voice is exceptional, she manages to hit high notes,
harmonize and have a low record, making her not have the need to edit
your voice.
As a bonus point, all of Taylor's songs are composed by herself and
then they are perfected by Jack Antonoff (main producer). Another aspect
It is worth mentioning that "this is what you came for" by Calvin Harris ft. Rihanna
is composed of Swift
3. Relationship with their fans –one thing that is beyond doubt is the great relationship that
Taylor has with her "swifties", that is her fans, cannot be compared at all.
with the relationship of other artists with their fans, we can see this with the presence
and the interactions she has on social media, she constantly likes posts from
swifties and especially now with The Eras Tour, she invites her fans to post how
They are going dressed for the concert so that she can share the photos of her
fans on their social media, another interaction of this tour is that during the song
Taylor gives the hat he wears in that performance to fans who are
little ones, if we continue talking about their tour we can also mention the
friendship bracelet exchange with names of their songs, albums or
phrases from her among her fans, Taylor may not participate directly in this
but thanks to their song 'you’re on you’re on kid' this activity started which
keeps her fans busy while starting the concert, similarly Taylor has
having meetings for her fans at her home, during which her fans and she can
talk in more detail, take pictures together, meet their cats, and eat cookies
that the very Taylor Swift bakes for her fans
4. Reputation - during 2016, Taylor's reputation gave a lot to talk about,
the press, artists, producers, and the world were against him. It was a
massive cancellation by the entire internet against her, however, afterwards
to completely disappear from social networks and reappear in 2017 with an album
full of snakes (a symbol associated with Swift for being a supposed liar),
talked about his shattered reputation and referring to him as a person
completely new gave the internet a complete turn. For Taylor, having had
going through this was a depressing and traumatic experience, however,
she managed to face it, taking it as another experience and giving it a development
crucial to her career and to herself; thanks to this supposed destroyed reputation
Taylor was able to take the liberty of starting her career over from scratch, stopping
worrying about what they would say and just being herself, this made her very happy
the fans, seeing this evolution of Taylor was something very special for the swifties
5. Unjustified hatred – focusing again on 2016, we can realize
account of the cancellation and absurd criticisms made against Taylor, they criticized her group
from friends saying that they only got together to show off, the number of couples
what she had was something that concerned the press more than the mere
Taylor's career. One of the controversies surrounding Taylor Swift unfortunately
it will always be what happened with Kanye West, not just referring to what happened
during the VMAs, her song 'famous' in this song Taylor was demeaned and he
He attributed his fame, even after she had written him 'innocent' song in
which she forgave him by saying that all people make mistakes at some point.
point in their lives and that these could not define us as people, Taylor one has
admitted that during 2009 she felt terrified by what had happened, since the
her perspective was that West was right and that his award was not something that she
merit
Currently, she continues to be attacked for no apparent reason, she is criticized for her
perfect appearance, because of her music and even, still after Taylor has
denied everything that happened with Kanye West and that it would be proven who was lying
he, she continues to be attacked by her fans, mainly with comments
misogynists and arguments that have no solid foundation; they keep saying that
Taylor became famous thanks to him, and they even turned the act of saying no into
you like Taylor's music in an argument full of misogyny, since this is what
they only use to be able to attack her, Taylor and her fandom have moved on from this but, there
people who simply can't let go, although something funny about this is the
the fact that North West, Kanye West's daughter, is a fan of Taylor and has come to
publish videos with her songs
6. Her achievements - throughout her entire musical career, Swift has amassed a total of
826 nominations and 360 awards. Recently she gave 4 concerts of her tour in
Mexico City, generating an economic spill of 3 million 987 thousand 269.
Mexican pesos, she was also the first female artist to perform 4
