[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If you're even in D.C., the most over-educated city in America, who do you know under age 45 who literally never went to college? If you're a white collar professional who grew up even somewhat privileged in the 80s and 90s, you don't know or even associate with anyone who doesn't have at least a bachelor's degree. Swift is a public school lifer who has never taken one college course -- and it shows in her shallow as a soda cap music. What makes her intelligent? Money? Come on. I've never heard her discuss how well read she is. Because she is not an intellectual, she's a very online pseud imbecile who POSTURES as some sort of intellectual poet. Her songs on this album are so juvenile, it's as if a teenager wrote this babble. There's no there there because she's simply not very bright. She is like a 36 year old rube who won the lottery. She and the football schmendrick are a match intellectually. They will be happy together. Ignorance is bliss.[/quote] Dp not that I disagree with what you wrote. But it's almost as if you're just now discovering all that you worry about her now . [/quote] One can hope an artist will evolve and mature over time, especially one who tries to force this tortured poet intellectual vibe. She hasn't. 36 is just way too old to still be this stunted and tumblr-brained and that's why this album is such an embarrassing flop.[/quote] I enjoyed her music--Red, Folklore, Reputation are ones I liked a lot--but I can't help but see some traits of narcissism in her and her work. She doesn't seem to keep friends for long. The friends she claims to have are primarily able bodied, straight, blonde, rich people. In her lyrics, she says she likes her friends wrapped in Gucci and says something about Balenciaga but calls the brand "Balenci'" She wears $10,000 worth of clothes to a football game. I can't relate to this person at all. She's also recycled lyrics from earlier albums, which shows a serious amount of laziness on her part... "I've been sleeping so long in a twenty-year dark night and now I see daylight..." -- from Daylight "Sleepless in the onyx night but the sky is opalite." -- Opalite The voices notes are HORRIBLE. She can't seem to carry a tune. At the end of one of them, you can hear her producers trying to get a word in edgewise but she shuts them down. In that voice note, she is not taking criticism or input... After word got out that her album is racist, she had herself papped with a black comedian. Before that, she'd not been photographed with a black person (beyond Kelce's teammate who is married to a MAGA lady). I think she is in for a sad and lonely life as another pop star mentioned in a song about her friendship with Taylor dissolving. Gracie Abrams, maybe. The 29 variations of this lame album beating out Adele is crass. TS had to all that to beat out a good album. If you read the letter that her dad wrote in 2005, you can see all of the machinations, and it's pretty nuts. Hopefully, this album will open a lot of eyes and she will eventually fade away as most pop stars do. [/quote]
