Tonight, all of these lives converge here, the mosaics of laughter and cocktails of tears. You guys. Where fraternal souls sing identical songs. And it's beautiful. And it's rapturous, period. It is frightening. But then, you know what I'm saying? I'm like, Tim, look at the state of hip hop.

Like, what's going on? I can't tell you. how proud I am to share this with you, comma. An album that just feels so right. A forever thank you goes out to my mentors and friends, Max and Shelback, which side note, before we get back into Taylor Swift's, you know, poetic note announcing that her album is out. As far as Max, Martin, and Shelbach, when she reunited with them, if you didn't know why, they were the producers of her hits blank space shake it off and i knew you were trouble and

22 so these are not just random names she's throwing out there they had a very um substantial part in a important part in her career anyways back to a big t's poetic note if you thought the big show was wild comma perhaps you should come and take a look behind the curtain. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, 10. The life of a show girl is out now.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, those are just some poetic words by the one and only Taylor Swift. And before you accuse me a glazing, right? I will let you know. That I have been talking about Taylor Swift and breaking her and breaking down her career as far as

the lifespan of this podcast in its entirety. So I've all always had Taylor Swift towards the top of my focal points because of me wanting to get into the notorious mass effect of music and gaming, which is why when you look at the overall banner, safe to say, there's a certain somebody up there. So when it comes to Taylor Swift being on my banner, I usually focus on hip hop and R&B. When I start to venture out and talk about other genres. Taylor Swift was one of the first people I wanted to put up on my banner just to showcase how I do talk about a lot of different genres and one of them. Hold on put that, put that banner back up.

Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio all the way to the top right as you can see, Bad Bunny was the one who was chosen for the Super Bowl performance. So you know, whenever I look at certain things as far as the notorious mass effect, I use objective metrics because I don't want to add any subjective, subjective personal opinions. to who I think is the biggest in the game. Because just because you're the biggest, it's not mean you're making the best product and just because you're not,

and just because you don't sell as much, does not mean you're making the absolute worst product. The two do not correlate. So now, getting into Taylor Swift and her releasing her album, The Life of a Showgirl, and an already breaking monumental records as far as the fate of Ophelia,

which is the first record, off of the life of a showgirl which is 12 tracks in length and 41 minutes in runtime the fate of old phylia which is the first track off of that album has broken the record

for the most streamed song in the single day in Spotify history so now we're looking at Taylor Swift and noticing how time and time again she ends up just breaking

the barriers and setting the bar as far as engagement for a musician and safe to say that a lot of people may be upset well not a lot but you know a good amount as far as you know in the music space may be upset by me comparing her to michael jackson but as far as the exposure as far as the engagement and the advancement of the internet so people who saw michael on tv or whatever it was very spirits of the moment like it was either catching them on tv or in person at an event the internet has made it to where these people are so accessible that they don't seem as large as larger than life like the people who came before the internet uh was perceived hopefully that makes sense now that we have all these different outlets to capture different glimpses of taylor swift and we see at 24-7

whenever we want to it kind of takes away the mistake steak but she still is out here selling out arenas stadium she's still out here turn it down to super bowl so i had to be petty right quick you guys right if you don't know she turned down the super bowl like for the second year in a row but it's okay you know she wanted like majority ownership of the rights to the performance and NFL wasn't going for that and taylor swift was like hey guess what we didn't don't have me so anyways um so taylor swift on the concert level That's one of the things I wanted to break down because of course one of the things that stood out to me is she's doing another theatrical release for the life of a showgirl and it's projected to do 25 to 30 million as far as in its opening weekend. And this would be interestingly enough on point because of course when the Taylor Swift, the heiress tour came out in 2023, it garnered 261 million global.

and it was one of the biggest record-breaking concert films of all time so now when you look at her box office accomplishment as far as the most previous example 2023 safe to say that following up the taylor's that following up the taylor swift errors tour theatrical release with the life of a showgirl and it's already projected to do 25 to 30 million opening weekend safe to say she's going to have the same amount of impact in the movie theaters like she has in music, which is a crazy testament to your fan base that they're willing to support and purchase any and everything that you put out as far as a product. Because I do believe it's high quality personally, but that's more subjective. Obviously, when it comes to her fan base, it's not, you know, because they support it so much to the point where they have to love it. Like they really enjoy everything that Taylor Swift puts out. So that's the main thing I wanted to talk about. I wanted to dive into different statistical accomplishments and the rarity as far as the statistical achievements that Taylor Swift puts up on

the board. It's not a lot of artists that can even do a tenth of what Taylor Swift does. Y'all going to say I'm glazing, but hey, you know, over here in a notorious mass effect, we focus on artists who, pun intended, notoriously affect the masses. And it's safe to say Taylor Swift is. the biggest artist who's out here affecting the masses so with that being said click my link to my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about taylor swift notoriously affecting the masses at the largest scale as far as a musician and musically what is your favorite
