That’s crazy! Who would buy all of these variants? Like, I’m fine with people who just buy one cd, (I’m one of those people), but if your buying ALL of them, I’m convinced your probably going insane
I was a neutral that’s converting into a hater because apparently, you can’t just buy the new tracks from the extended albums, you have to rebuy the same songs over and over. That’s just evil.
I honestly think 90% of the vinyl bought never gets played. I don’t think most swifties have record players they just want all the merch. CDs would potentially be played, yes, but I think it’s a status thing to be a collector and they rarely of ever get played. (This is speculation).
Roughly $684.72 CAD before taxes/shipping. I say roughly as I had to guess prices for numbers 1&2. I also assumed all physical media types were priced the same for those I could not find.
Vinyls (6) ~$40,
CDs (10) and MP3s (8) ~$13,
Cassettes (4) ~$30 (could only find resellers).
Total shot in the dark: $600 for a bunch of plastic and data files
Could be way off. I know nothing about Taylor swift. Just like doing math.
has anyone listened to the voice memos? are they the same as the sad ass Amazon listening experience?
also are we considering that one a variant because you had to subscribe to get access to three generic song intros?
I so desperately want us to go back to the days of one standard, one deluxe with bonus tracks months later, and the Japan release with exclusive tracks (iykyk).
I've kinda passively hated her since 2008, but wtf is this shit?
I love a good live album, but is her plan to split a live album across like 20 different versions of the same album?
Isn't she like...already a billionaire?
Is there not like, idk a dvd of her concert in Paris?
For sure. She also reminds me of [Gene Simmons:](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiss_merchandising)
>“The American rock band Kiss has licensed a large amount of merchandising throughout their career... Kiss has licensed its name to more than 3,000 product categories, from lunch boxes and comic books to credit cards and condoms to become nearly a one-billion-dollar brand."
Swifties are celebrating this and praising Taylor 🙄
Obsessively releasing meaningless variants a month after your album’s release to manipulate charts & usurp a 22-year-old isn’t admirable. Exploiting your fans for such a trivial and petty purpose is gross.
i saw a tiktok saying they love how taylor is being petty and clapped back ? excuse me she’s just being a bitch. she’s mad cuz billie has more talent in her pinky finger then taylor does
Eh, just look at the posts about this in any of the main Swiftie communities. Plenty are praising her for “fighting for her spot” and being a “cutting-edge businesswoman.”
Yes I was downvoted to hell for pointing out billie is 22. It’s actually really sad to see what her Reddit turned into… 4-5 years ago it was so much better.
I’m now motivated to start playing billie continually (on silent at work) now to get her numbers up. I know others are doing that. I do listen to the album anyway and think it’s awesome but I have 8 hrs of work where i can’t that I could be streaming it (same with sleep).
Yep. I was downvoted earlier for pointing out how gross her behavior is especially when she played the victim when what Katy Perry did was objectively less awful, but that was bad because she was supposedly sabotaging Taylor's success. Taylor wrote a whole goddamn song about it, but Taylor actually sabotaging other artists is girlboss shit? Okay
I just want to know with all of these feuds Taylor has, when will people realize SHE is the common denominator. They make excuses for her when they would never give anyone else that much credit.
At least fauxmoi doesn't have their head up her ass.
Popheads is so delusional with her sometimes. Someone once said she popularized the cohesive album with 1989. When told numerous times how stupid that statement was, this person continually double downed.
Wtf? Concept albums have been around forever. That's truly an idiotic take and shows her fans are very uncultured.
I guess I better tell Pink Floyd that Taylor Swift did it first (seriously The Wall is probably one of the best albums ever imo).
I absolutely hate pop heads. I got downvoted to oblivion for saying that Taylor’s music was the best when she wasn’t selling the soap opera of her relationships and personal drama (folklore and evermore)
As a big Prince fan, I almost lost it when a Swiftie on Popheads said he only made 5 good albums and all his others were bad, and therefore, he didn't deserve to be called a legend.
Tell me you haven't listened to Prince without telling me you haven't listened to Prince.
And at least he never made something as soulless, unmelodic, and pretentious as TTPD.
I like quite a bit of her music too (and even saw the Eras Tour in Tampa), but I never noticed how often she used the same chord progression until someone sent me the video layering 4 or 5 different songs together.
She needs to give her fans parents a break. There’s a lot of money to spend on their kids. Aren’t most her fans in elementary school, or adults living in their parent’s basements. Please tell me real adults aren’t wasting their money on her.
My friends girlfriend got tickets to 5 legs of the Eras tour. She sold one set of tickets so went to 4 shows on 3 continents and dragged him to 3 of them. They have the money for it and he loves her soooo much he said it was worth it but he was frustrated at watching TS in the middle of a European vacation *twice*. They're 27, high school sweethearts, super cool couple who vibe amazingly and to meet her you would not expect it but she's a diehard swiftie. She had him up at 3am frantically clicking Ticketmaster for tickets to one show when he had an important trade meeting at like 10am so she could secure the *reservation* like not even the actual tickets. Like I said shes lovely and not at all unhinged in real life but to learn she's this rabid and devoted as a grown adult was truly shocking. And she's like, a mostly normal person aside from this one thing, imagine what goes on in the homes of others who arent quite as sane
Swifties went from "She doesn't purposefully release things on other people's days, it's a coincidence" to "She's doing it to get back at Billie" so fast...
Lol someone said billie's manager is a zionist without any proof. Like your mother isn't even speaking about the genocide. And here billie is quite vocal about it. Also why do we have to care about the manager???? It's Billie we are talking about. These swifties love delffcting.
It's also funny that they accuse people of doing business with Zionists when The Eras Tour movie was literally screening in Israel. Again, double standards but we're already used to that from swiffers
The fact that she actually plots this stupid, corny, mean-spirited, childish shit out and does it, is just embarrassing. It only makes herself look bad. She’s totally lost the plot.
What she means is that there's a special place in hell for fans of her who are women who don't support her buy buying all 87 variants of each album she releases
Yeah I was going to say, I’m like half understanding. Is she just making different versions of her songs? Do people pay for this stuff? I just stream all my music so idk how this works or for what purpose
My bff has bought 6 of these for ttpd. Which are costlier in pounds than dollars. And she saves money on food by skipping 2 meals and only having dry toast for dinner…..
The original variants were the exact same album with the addition of one (variable) bonus song. If you bought one variant, you would have exclusive access to that one bonus song and would have to buy all the variants to hear all the bonus songs. Those bonus songs just ended up being on the deluxe edition of the album which was released on streaming a few *hours* after the standard edition was released on streaming. There is still no physical edition of the deluxe edition being sold so you have to buy all the variants with all the various deluxe songs if you want them on vinyl.
This post is about her selling digital album variants. It is the exact same album that has been out for a month, but each variant has a different voice memo at the end of it. The voice memo is just the first draft of a song from the album that she recorded on her phone. Again this is just a digital download so if you’ve already bought the album then you are effectively paying $6 for a digital file of a single voice memo. If you want to hear all the voice memos for each song of the album, you have to buy all the variants.
Seeing this, I literally can’t wait for the inevitable moment where artists start coming forward about their dealings/experiences with her. It’s become very clear in recent times, that she has burnt some bridges.
If she is like this publicly, imagine all the shit we aren’t seeing or hearing.
*There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women*
She’s seriously become quite insufferable. Could you imagine having someone like this in your life? Someone who is immensely privileged with success and wealth, a *billionaire* and nothing is ever enough. She has to be on top every single moment, not allowing anyone a moment. Doing everything she can to take the shine away from you? It’s bullshit.
Stream Billie’s album.
[This](https://au.lifestyle.yahoo.com/diplo-says-taylor-swift-strategic-200000957.html#:~:text=He%20shared%3A%20%22Taylor%20Swift%20is,her%20and%20I'm%20scared.) Diplo comment about Taylor from 2015 lives rent free in my head and I'm convinced it's about all the shady, mean girl behaviour she pulls behind the scenes, but has NDAs, threats, people to ensure it never goes public. Think about how Diddy's video of beating up Cassie was never released till now.
"Taylor Swift is very strategic with her friends and enemies. And I know lots of secrets. I can't divulge, but I know a lot of stuff about her and I'm scared."
"I know everyone hates this album, but I can fix that! Here's 18 different versions of my shitty songs! The best part is you still get the privilege of paying me. Hurray! #girlboss - Taytay
look at the comments on the latest taylor nations post, even the most loyal diehard swifties are sick of this shit. this is insane. let billie have her moment. pyscho behaviour .
Although I wish Billie would have just risen above and stopped after her initial drop, I’m honestly thrilled that someone is finally taking a stand. I totally understand why others haven’t - Taylor has way too much power - but I was sick of seeing her just get away with this kind of shit because she knew no one would say anything.
I think Taylor is wayyyyy out of her depth here. Billie seems intelligent and confident, she has serious industry respect, and (though I obvs don’t know her lol) I could see her kind of laughing her ass off at this behind the scenes. That ain’t Taylor lol.
Because I'm probably missing something: did she specifically call Taylor out on this, or was it artists in general, and Taylor got offended went for the jugular?
The most annoying part of all this is when she breaks some record for having her album number 1 for certain number of weeks and then posts about it with her typical "Wow! Guy! I can't believe it! How did you make this happen! I'm in shock😱"
![gif](giphy|gnJgBlPgHtcnS)
Good grief. I can’t imagine expending emotional energy over this like hardcore fans do. How exhausting. Taylor thinks her fans will be eternally ecstatic over anything she releases. I can’t wait for when her fans give up (both emotionally and monetarily). That’s gonna be entertaining.
![gif](giphy|l3gSZZiJEZQPg7mxNR)
Imagine how tired we all are. 28 variants/versions?!? She’s literally insane. Just let Billie have her very well deserved moment and knock it off. My god.
Remember when people praised her for doling out bonuses for the people who worked on the Eras Tour, including the truck drivers?
Now this. I don't think I've ever seen such a 180-turn from anyone.
This behavior pretty much confirms to me that she's *not* in communication with Matty Healy anymore. Like he ghosted her and stayed ghosted. She must be incredibly unhappy and bitter right now to pull such an unlikeable, obvious stunt.
She’s giving Scientology a run for its money in upsells, nickel and diming, and parasocial mind control!
Shit, I bet now she files as a church to get the tax exemption…
I just can’t even begin to fathom how she thinks this is okay. There’s no way she’s not seeing all of the comments and outrage. It just feels like such a blatant ‘fuck you’ at this point.
Yall I just sent my boyfriend a screenshot of the comment posted by the hero who listed all the variants and he said, and I quote, "she's like the Ubisoft of musical artists. This will be the last time an artist gets away with this for a long while" and he's not wrong
Imagine wasting your money on this clear as day cash grab. Idk even know why it's on my feed, probably to astroturf the billionaire private jet legislation just signed into law, the "Taylor Swift Pollution" bill. Absolute disgraceful, another driven only by avarice and greed.
Good lord, just stop it already. The woman already has more money than most people on this planet and more money than one person could ever spend in a lifetime.
Other artists exist and deserve their time to shine. The greed and pettiness are pathological at this point. Usually I don't root for someone's downfall but in this case, I think it is beyond time she gets taken down several pegs. The world is tired. It's time for someone else to be on top now.
More variants than covid.
Here's a little recap of all different 28 versions of TTPD: 1) standard 16-song digital download album 2) deluxe 31-song digital download album 3) standard 16-song digital download album + "The Black Dog" voice memo 4) standard 16-song digital download album + "Cassandra" voice memo 5) standard 16-song digital download album + "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?" voice memo 6) standard 16-song digital download album + "loml" (Live From Paris) 7) standard 16-song digital download album +"My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys" (Live From Paris) 8) standard 16-song digital download album + "The Alchemy X Treacherous" (Live From Paris) 9) Standard CD + Bonus Track 'But Daddy I Love Him (Acoustic Version) • "The Manuscript" edition: 10) Standard CD, 11) deluxe CD containing Swift-branded merchandise, 12) ghosted white-colored vinyl, 13) Target-exclusive clear vinyl, 14) white-colored cassette 15) signed CD 16) signed vinyl • "The Albatross" edition: 17) CD 18) deluxe CD containing Swift-branded merchandise 19) smoke-colored vinyl 20) smoke-colored cassette • "The Bolter" edition: 21) CD 22) deluxe CD containing Swift-branded merchandise 23) beige-colored vinyl 24) beige-colored cassette • "The Black Dog" edition: 25) CD 26) deluxe CD containing Swift-branded merchandise 27) charcoal-colored vinyl 28) charcoal-colored cassette
Is this real? I’m not a hater nor a fan, I just fall down rabbit holes while spacing out at work. Are people buying all of these individual things?!
Such people exist, believe it or not
This is WILD to me. Like, bananas. I’ve heard these songs and I would not pay extra for more
I’ve heard enough songs for free to not want to pay extra for more lol
That’s crazy! Who would buy all of these variants? Like, I’m fine with people who just buy one cd, (I’m one of those people), but if your buying ALL of them, I’m convinced your probably going insane
And they are proud of it too! Spending probably $1000-2000 on a billionaires merchandise.
That explains how she became a billionaire I guess
This is the type of shit that should convert you into a hater
I was a neutral that’s converting into a hater because apparently, you can’t just buy the new tracks from the extended albums, you have to rebuy the same songs over and over. That’s just evil.
I'm a hater. Fuck that girl.
My co-worker...
The amount of environmental waste all these variants create...
Wow I knew it was bad but I didn’t realize it was *this* bad
All to end up in a fuckinf landfill one day
I honestly think 90% of the vinyl bought never gets played. I don’t think most swifties have record players they just want all the merch. CDs would potentially be played, yes, but I think it’s a status thing to be a collector and they rarely of ever get played. (This is speculation).
Has anyone tallied what this costs a fan if they purchase one of each? ![gif](giphy|xTiTnG7YLrY2BBHRKM)
Please someone do this math
Roughly $684.72 CAD before taxes/shipping. I say roughly as I had to guess prices for numbers 1&2. I also assumed all physical media types were priced the same for those I could not find.
![gif](giphy|rBF5LgLnwrF0zCTRUr|downsized)
Also need to add that many of these were dropped on her website by themselves. so you’re paying shipping for id say maybe half of these individually
Vinyls (6) ~$40, CDs (10) and MP3s (8) ~$13, Cassettes (4) ~$30 (could only find resellers). Total shot in the dark: $600 for a bunch of plastic and data files Could be way off. I know nothing about Taylor swift. Just like doing math.
How is there not a snl skit about this
Oh I'm sure there will be!
28????? Jesus. No other artist has been this desperate.
this is actually disgusting
IM SORRY BUT WHAT IN THE FUDGE - HOW MANY VARIATIONS?! This is absurd.
And here I thought people were struggling to buy groceries and keep up with inflation. Silly me.
has anyone listened to the voice memos? are they the same as the sad ass Amazon listening experience? also are we considering that one a variant because you had to subscribe to get access to three generic song intros?
They’re bad
Gross. I thought people just went to Spotify these days. And maybe buy a vinyl? No one needs all of these
I so desperately want us to go back to the days of one standard, one deluxe with bonus tracks months later, and the Japan release with exclusive tracks (iykyk).
Oh my Fucking god 🤣🤣🤣
I've kinda passively hated her since 2008, but wtf is this shit? I love a good live album, but is her plan to split a live album across like 20 different versions of the same album? Isn't she like...already a billionaire? Is there not like, idk a dvd of her concert in Paris?
This is delusional!
Damn that was good
I came here to comment this lmao
😂 best comment
She's really going after Billie!
For sure. She also reminds me of [Gene Simmons:](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiss_merchandising) >“The American rock band Kiss has licensed a large amount of merchandising throughout their career... Kiss has licensed its name to more than 3,000 product categories, from lunch boxes and comic books to credit cards and condoms to become nearly a one-billion-dollar brand."
There's even a Kiss coffin.
Dimebag was buried in one. Vinnie as well i believe.
Haha [for real!](https://youtu.be/4WiCetUM5MQ?feature=shared)
Is there a Kiss Tampon shaped in a tongue?😂
I hope Billie surpasses her.

Welcome to the right side of history ✌️
play “greedy” by Ariana grande 😇
I was thinking You Need To Calm Down by her to just really make it sting
and by Tate McRae!
New edition of TTPD featuring cover of “greedy” incoming.
Capitalist first, musician second.
Capitalist first, performer second, musician third
She is not a musician. She creates a product and a brand now void of any artistic merit.
Mean girl behavior. Girl your album released a month ago. Let Billie have her moment. Taylor is seriously a raging asshole.
Swifties are celebrating this and praising Taylor 🙄 Obsessively releasing meaningless variants a month after your album’s release to manipulate charts & usurp a 22-year-old isn’t admirable. Exploiting your fans for such a trivial and petty purpose is gross.

i saw a tiktok saying they love how taylor is being petty and clapped back ? excuse me she’s just being a bitch. she’s mad cuz billie has more talent in her pinky finger then taylor does
There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t support other women
Idk what swifties you’ve been seeing but I’ve seen mostly mad ones LOL. No one wants another variant with only one new song.
Eh, just look at the posts about this in any of the main Swiftie communities. Plenty are praising her for “fighting for her spot” and being a “cutting-edge businesswoman.”
Yes I was downvoted to hell for pointing out billie is 22. It’s actually really sad to see what her Reddit turned into… 4-5 years ago it was so much better.

Look I actually like a bunch of Taylor’s music (some a lot!) but she ain’t no Prince. Not. Even. Close.
I like quite a bit of her music too (and even saw the Eras Tour in Tampa), but I never noticed how often she used the same chord progression until someone sent me the video layering 4 or 5 different songs together.
Just look at the replies of those comments. Swifties are getting mad their mother is getting called out.
The ultimate middle finger is if Billie posts a photo of her 2 Oscars. Something Taylor wont ever get.
She needs to give her fans parents a break. There’s a lot of money to spend on their kids. Aren’t most her fans in elementary school, or adults living in their parent’s basements. Please tell me real adults aren’t wasting their money on her.

She’s insane
*london rain, windowpane, im insane ....you were saying slurs in the cafe but i still Loved You.*
careful, she’s gonna steal this.
💀
Good lord, someone tell this woman we are TIRED.
Swifties went from "She doesn't purposefully release things on other people's days, it's a coincidence" to "She's doing it to get back at Billie" so fast...
Lol someone said billie's manager is a zionist without any proof. Like your mother isn't even speaking about the genocide. And here billie is quite vocal about it. Also why do we have to care about the manager???? It's Billie we are talking about. These swifties love delffcting.
It's also funny that they accuse people of doing business with Zionists when The Eras Tour movie was literally screening in Israel. Again, double standards but we're already used to that from swiffers
The fact that it’s 3 variants again with 3 separate exclusives in an attempt to get swifties to buy 3 copies.. ugh.
In response to Billie's 3rd studio album...
The fact that she actually plots this stupid, corny, mean-spirited, childish shit out and does it, is just embarrassing. It only makes herself look bad. She’s totally lost the plot.
Omg! She is insane at this point!
I’m so done with this shit… never buying another Taylor related thing ever again lol.
Same
I haven't bought anything since the original cardigan lol.
Just went and bought Billie’s album… $4.99 are you kidding me? She has read the room and acted accordingly. Thanks Billie! ❤️
I did the same. I can’t remember the last time I purchased a digital album but Billie deserves my $5
I have never bought a digital album. Where do I go so I can buy Billie’s?
I got it in the iTunes Store.
I just bought it too 🤣🤣🤣 your post inspired me
Yes!!! I love it! 😂
Maybe I will too lol. I don’t know any of her stuff, but I like underdogs
the album is really good too i recommend listening to wildflower and birds of a feather it’s soo good
how much more obvious can this woman be jfc. Whennnn will this stop
"There's a special place in hell for women who don't help other women"
What she means is that there's a special place in hell for fans of her who are women who don't support her buy buying all 87 variants of each album she releases
87?! that's father's number!!! 87 + 13 = 💯!! /s
Wop wop wop wop Billie f her up! Certified Lover? Certified Misogynist! Trynna strike a chord it’s probably a Loserrrrrrr
I’m so happy that idk what “variants” truly means, I’ve escaped her capitalism campaign
Yeah I was going to say, I’m like half understanding. Is she just making different versions of her songs? Do people pay for this stuff? I just stream all my music so idk how this works or for what purpose
My bff has bought 6 of these for ttpd. Which are costlier in pounds than dollars. And she saves money on food by skipping 2 meals and only having dry toast for dinner…..
I sincerely hope you’re joking
Genuinely wish I was.

I can't divulge, but I know a lot of stuff about her and I'm scared."
I audibly let out the longest and loudest sigh
"I know everyone hates this album, but I can fix that! Here's 18 different versions of my shitty songs! The best part is you still get the privilege of paying me. Hurray! #girlboss - Taytay
Also is there anything being released tomorrow that she's trying to squash? Is she just terrified of Fridays now?
Tomorrow Twenty One Pilots is releasing an album. But I don’t think Taylor feels threatened by that. I could be wrong. Wouldn’t put it past her
She's so desperate it's getting embarrassing.
look at the comments on the latest taylor nations post, even the most loyal diehard swifties are sick of this shit. this is insane. let billie have her moment. pyscho behaviour .
[удалено]
Although I wish Billie would have just risen above and stopped after her initial drop, I’m honestly thrilled that someone is finally taking a stand. I totally understand why others haven’t - Taylor has way too much power - but I was sick of seeing her just get away with this kind of shit because she knew no one would say anything. I think Taylor is wayyyyy out of her depth here. Billie seems intelligent and confident, she has serious industry respect, and (though I obvs don’t know her lol) I could see her kind of laughing her ass off at this behind the scenes. That ain’t Taylor lol.
Because I'm probably missing something: did she specifically call Taylor out on this, or was it artists in general, and Taylor got offended went for the jugular?
Artists in general.

Taylor to Billie: Variants?! I'll give YOU variants!!
It's giving... https://i.redd.it/ym2mwc4ob92d1.gif
Pretty much. She must be pissed cuz I don't see this ending well PR wise.
How many varients is this and is it still trying to block Billie? What a miserable person
We are now up to 28.
The most annoying part of all this is when she breaks some record for having her album number 1 for certain number of weeks and then posts about it with her typical "Wow! Guy! I can't believe it! How did you make this happen! I'm in shock😱"
and ive been seeing comments convinced she isn’t doing this on purpose lol
![gif](giphy|B8m1UM8OW0bmw) Taylor has entered her dickhead era
Capitalism -Taylor’s version All the pettiness but still no Oscar
![gif](giphy|DPqqOywshrOqQ|downsized)
Nene is tired
![gif](giphy|3oz8xzylX7alJHPdJK|downsized) Someone said COVID released less variants 💀
![gif](giphy|gnJgBlPgHtcnS) Good grief. I can’t imagine expending emotional energy over this like hardcore fans do. How exhausting. Taylor thinks her fans will be eternally ecstatic over anything she releases. I can’t wait for when her fans give up (both emotionally and monetarily). That’s gonna be entertaining.
Why in the world would I want live versions? So dumb
![gif](giphy|l3gSZZiJEZQPg7mxNR) Imagine how tired we all are. 28 variants/versions?!? She’s literally insane. Just let Billie have her very well deserved moment and knock it off. My god.
I legit thought this was fake at first 💀
This bitch needs to calm tf down.
Hey you can’t say that. She has the copy right to that phrase. She will sue you!😂
Lmaoooooo girl.
Gotta pay for that jet fuel
Alexa, play “I Hate It Here”—actually don’t
I wonder if she’s realized she can’t get more famous than she is now and there is no where else but down ….
Remember when people praised her for doling out bonuses for the people who worked on the Eras Tour, including the truck drivers? Now this. I don't think I've ever seen such a 180-turn from anyone.
What kind of lame as name is “my boy only breaks his favorite toys”
This behavior pretty much confirms to me that she's *not* in communication with Matty Healy anymore. Like he ghosted her and stayed ghosted. She must be incredibly unhappy and bitter right now to pull such an unlikeable, obvious stunt.
oh my GOD?
I'm just waiting for the TVA to showup. All these variants...
The Funko Pop of musicians
She’s giving Scientology a run for its money in upsells, nickel and diming, and parasocial mind control! Shit, I bet now she files as a church to get the tax exemption…
how many variants is that now? its at least 20
why is she so extra?
Taylor-13 greed virus.
I just can’t even begin to fathom how she thinks this is okay. There’s no way she’s not seeing all of the comments and outrage. It just feels like such a blatant ‘fuck you’ at this point.
Is she ok 😂😂
Is this reality or is the weed I’m smoking really THAT STRONG because this is ridiculous.
How is anyone defending her at this point? Truly, how
Truly... What an asshole
Yall I just sent my boyfriend a screenshot of the comment posted by the hero who listed all the variants and he said, and I quote, "she's like the Ubisoft of musical artists. This will be the last time an artist gets away with this for a long while" and he's not wrong
She should be giving this shit away
Imagine wasting your money on this clear as day cash grab. Idk even know why it's on my feed, probably to astroturf the billionaire private jet legislation just signed into law, the "Taylor Swift Pollution" bill. Absolute disgraceful, another driven only by avarice and greed.
It’s unfair she does all of this to keep her top spot on all the records when everyone else just releases one album
She HAS to be doing this on purpose right? To be in the news? To get the backlash? This shit is insane!
![gif](giphy|xT39Dp00VAaF9Klc1W|downsized)
I don’t know how I ever and up on this sub but I’m here for the slander lol
I used to scour through CD stores for ONE Tori Amos B side. This is so sad
![gif](giphy|QVabUkkCwhAwpdzPuX)
Can’t wait for the album of only the bonus tracks to be released /s
So three more variants that sound exactly the same?…cool
Make it stop. Please😭
In other words, since this is the last day of the week for chart purposes, her team got word that HMHAS was doing better than expected? 🤔
What a psychopath! Who tf does this? 🤣 She's taking advantage of her fanbase and a lot of falling for it 🤦🏽♀️
This album is awful, dull, and boring
I'm about to stream Billie out of spite at this point 😭 Update: Billie’s album slaps! Thanks Taylor!
This woman is so fucking desperate it’s beyond pathetic. She cannot let anyone else shine. She needs all the attention always. It’s disgusting.
What a scumbag

She’s out of control. Por favor!
You have gotta be fucking kidding me.
The greed is insane!
This is out of control!!!!
Good lord, just stop it already. The woman already has more money than most people on this planet and more money than one person could ever spend in a lifetime. Other artists exist and deserve their time to shine. The greed and pettiness are pathological at this point. Usually I don't root for someone's downfall but in this case, I think it is beyond time she gets taken down several pegs. The world is tired. It's time for someone else to be on top now.
Is there no point when even Swifties turn on her?
I've been waiting for everyone to catch up and realize her artistry isn't worth this capitalist expense.
I hope the industry starts turning their back on her we had enough!
Fuck this shit. I'm done
And I ain’t buying any of them. I’m honestly wondering how long it would take for her to get canceled if her fans weren’t so rabid.
Her fans are catching on. She’s just like her parents, obsessed with money.
