I'd say an expansion of dipping into other genres. Obviously she loves and listens to all kinds of music, I don't see her not finding inspiration and mixing it into her music.
I wonder who she will collaborate with for the next album?!

exactly! i see some experimental, indie or alternative pop rock stuff coming out of this. hopefully even a little folksy. no matter the genre, i don't want her to completely lose that singer-songwriter aspect to herself that she kinda changed up/lost a bit of with 1989 :/

Taylor's slayage has got them clutching at straws in their futile dragging attempts.

it's not fair though, because you're being very biased and one-sided. it's undeniable that they go about writing about relationships very differently. taylor writes very specific to her life and makes it very obvious who she's talking about, whereas katy's are less personal and more general, lacking specificity of person vs. person. and honestly, i prefer taylor's method of songwriting, but that's the reason she gets scrutinized moreso than people like bruno, ed katy, etc. because they don't write as personal as taylor does. so when she says, "my writing hasn't changed. i've always written really personal songs about really person events," she's not lying, BUT it's exactly why everyone knows exactly who she's talking about.
and the little references she adds in her lyrics, music videos, or hidden liner notes don't help her case. it's a double-edged sword: she wants to write really personal lyrics, which she does, but of course that will lead to people knowing who she's talking about.
