#MusicMonday: Look What You Made Me Do - Taylor Swift


I've followed Taylor Swift since the days where she hoped when you thought Tim Mcgraw, you thought of her favourite song the one you danced to all night long... so you know quite a long time since that is the first song on her first album back when T.Swift was still country with curly hair.

To give credit where credit is due I think Taylor is an amazing song writer and performer, I travelled down to London to see a date on her Red Tour and thought it was a phenomenally well put together show. The woman is talented. Where her talent really shines through is she a master of promo. She has really got hyping up her upcoming work into a fine art. This has really shone through in the 1989 era and now as we enter the Reputation era.

Look What You Made Me Do, is actually a brilliant song. I didn't think that I would enjoy, though I still like Swift's work its not something I seek these days and it took me a little while to get around to listening to it, but lyrically its genius.

Even better is the video that comes along with Look What You Made Me Do, in which Taylor Slays, LITERALLY. She rises from the dead, alludes to a whole number of different feuds that have went on in her life since 1989 and the satirical brilliance of all the old Taylor's at the end this is a music video for the ages.

Taylor knows what she's doing, and after many people have tried to drag her and make her look less than, she's come out on top and stronger that ever. The album that follows is certainly got high expectations.

And like a snake that shed her skin the old Taylor is dead, much like Taylor's old social media. Eagerly waiting for what the Reputation era holds.
