"Taylor smashing records left and right; pop phenomenon"

Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake It Off’ Is Smashing Records Left And Right
Taylor Swift‘s transition from country darling to global pop phenomenon has been pretty seamless. From her self-titled debut album to 2012′s blockbuster Red (which broke records by moving more than one million copies), the signs have always been there. But on “Shake It Off,” the lead-in to her fifth LP, the singer, now a bold 24, rings unabashedly about her superstar status. While she was busy shaking it off at the Video Music Awards last night, the song is officially on track to become the year’s biggest hit.
Lead singles with hype/radio deals/promo performance always tend to do well. Doesn't say much about the potential of the rest of the album and its singles.
Taylor isn't someone I'd stan for but there is no denying that she is a gifted writer, who continues to work hard and of course her impact is undeniable. I use a lot of her songs too.
