Summary

Taylor Swift unveils a new, darker identity on her latest album “Reputation,” and many have read the lyrics on her latest as not-so-subtle volleys in an ongoing celebrity feud. Still, a question remains: how does Swift cast this dark personality in music? Two songs offer evidence. Melodic drops and temporal gaps in “I Did Something Bad” signal the album’s themes of descent and decay. On “Getaway Car,” however, some of Swift’s old songwriting tricks may betray her new persona.
We also dug into Reputation and other great listener questions in our Reddit AMA.
