Taylor hit a peak in terms of world-building on this album. Taking inspiration from literature, history and her personal life, ending up creating her magnum opus right in the middle of the pandemic. Her most cohesive record till date, with phenomenal writing and production. Taylor's versatility makes her a fascinating artist. With each genre she tackles, she evolves both in terms of a songwriter and a musician. Thus, keeping the general public on their toes, unlike many of her forgotten peers.

Not as good of an album as folklore, in terms of cohesivity, but the tracks individually outshine many of folklore's tracks. As folklore, excellent writing and production.

Good album, should've been pruned to 13-15 standard edition tracks and a deluxe with all 18 tracks. Could've been an excellent pop album, if it was more cohesive by removing a few tracks.

With her grand return to pop after deep introspection in the folklorian-woods, Taylor Swift on her 10th studio album proves again that versatility is not something in which she lacks. Midnights may not be as well written as 'folklore' and 'evermore', but it still stands strong against her other pop albums. Each song on the standard edition fits perfectly into the bigger picture of the different mindsets a person goes through at midnight, may it be plotting revenge ('Vigilante Shit') or falling ... read more

The fact this album still feels fresh and is more "listenable" than most pop music these days, makes it clear as to why it started the career of one of the biggest artists ever.

A very cohesive album, with great instrumentals and Janelle's impressive vocals, perfect for the summer. The themes of self-love tend to get repetitive by the sixth track, but the album truly takes off in the second half. 'A Dry Red' is a beautiful closing track which feels you leaving nostalgic and wanting more. Along with the rich, vibrant production, Janelle's vocals were definitely a stand out on this album.

Red is the quintessential Taylor Swift album. Her true 'break-up' album. Red's cohesivity lies in the fact it has no cohesivity, thus signifying the mindset of a heartbroken person who's flooded by innumerable emotions all at once. And that is exactly what this album feels like. With pop bangers like 'I Knew You Were Trouble' to her most descriptive and narrative song 'All Too Well', Red is the perfect package, or more so a portal into the head of a heartbroken person. Each song on this album ... read more

It may not live up to its predecessor 'Golden Hour', but Kacey still serves good relatable music. Though the theme that Kacey sets up on the first track may have been diluted by the end, due to numerous ideas she picks up along the way, tarnishing the album's cohesiveness. This album is still an easy listening experience for days you just want to vibe.

Taylor Swift's third studio album truly displays her songwriting abilities to the maximum extent. A self-written masterpiece from start to finish, depicts how songwriting is to be used as an outlet for one's emotions. With the constant theme of 'speaking up' whether for love or loss, Speak Now caters to all the feelings of being a teenager. On songs like 'Last Kiss' and 'Dear John' Taylor swells emotions of profound loss in the listener even if they may not have experienced such emotions ... read more

On her fifth studio album Lana Del Rey delves deeper into the intricate world she often designs in her music. 'Norman Fucking Rockwell' seems very much like a triumph, at the end of a decade long career and the beginning of a new one, for the songstress. With it she proves that her artistry supersedes everything. From sultry pop songs like 'Fuck It I Love You', to introspective ballads like 'hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but i have it'. Accompanied by the mellow ... read more
