Swift has grown as an artist over the years. If you listen to one of her first songs and then jump to one of her more recent songs you would think it is an entirely new artist. Originally her music was simple, with acoustic guitar. Her new music includes a lot more musical elements and has transformed to primarily pop. The transition from her first song to her most recent songs show how much she has grown as an artist. 

I am a personal fan of Taylor Swift because I grew up listening to her music. Her music is most often relatable to young women. Many of her songs are about the men in her life, for example some song titles include: You Belong With Me, Love Story, I Knew You Were Trouble, We Are Never Getting Back Together, Lover, and The Man. 

Swift’s music has become such a big hit this year that there became an overwhelming demand for tickets to her new tour. 

Overall, Taylor Swift has become one of the biggest names in female pop music. Her new music always blows up the charts, and makes her fans constantly wanting more. She has made a huge impact through her music over the years.
