@amberhorsburgh_: 📹 Part 14/14: Reputation - the video series. Taylor Swift re-recorded everything except one album. Here's why Reputation can’t be improved. She said, “I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it. All that defiance, the longing to be understood while feeling purposely misunderstood, that desperate hope, that shame-born snarl and mischief.” When Reputation was released, critics panned it: Consequence gave it a D+ Pitchfork called it “stubborn petulance.” But years later, the same outlets reversed course: Consequence upgraded it to an A. The New York Times ranked it #1 in her discography in 2024. Critics initially missed the album’s depth, focusing on drama over merit. But Reputation’s true legacy is resilience: the inner mind of an artist under attack, refusing to back down. What album should I do next? Much love, x amber PS. I started the series with 16 videos and in the process of editing 2 weren’t up to scratch so they’re on my office floor/depths of google drive. It’s a 14 part series.
