Taylor Swift recalls 'hate frenzy' during Reputation era

  • Taylor Swift sat down with Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. for The Icon Sessions With Taylor Swift, a wide-ranging career retrospective released Monday by the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles.
  • Swift's re-recording of her first six albums followed a dispute with retired talent manager Scooter Braun, who acquired her master recordings before she bought them back in May last year.
  • Swift acknowledged using several coping mechanisms, telling herself, "You chose this. You could have opted out of this any day before it got unmanageably big," while noting she continues because she loves making music.
  • Reflecting on her 2017 album Reputation, Swift described a time when people actively tried to misunderstand her, explaining she uses art to "barrel roll out of" attempts to drive her insane.
  • Closing the session, Swift offered young songwriters advice to "show up to work even when the idea fairy doesn't," emphasizing that enthusiasm can protect them in the ever-changing music industry.
