I do whatever I want to do. None of your business. Plus, stanning for K-Pop is better than stanning for some crude who act like they are the most authentic #artistes when they are basically just doing the same **** and cut from the same cloth.

Kety is a basic bitch who clearly doesn't like The Lord, she has no place in this base.

Well if you feel that I did..... 
Though, don't you find it funny, working with someone who produces for nearly everyone out there, then saying that your work is 'DIFFERENT'?  Am squinting so hard at that line of thought She has.

Exactly! I feel like it isn't about Taylor not leaving country go, it's about country not letting go of her.

Should I remind you.
You could hear Martin and Shellback’s touch in the bright, punchy sound of those songs, “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” “I Knew You Were *Trouble,” and “22.” Yet the songs are unmistakably Swiftian; unlike other Martin songs, you can’t imagine them being recorded, interchangeably, by Katy Perry, or Pink, or any of the other usual suspects. Listen to a key line in “22”: “We’re happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time / It’s miserable and magical.” It’s a classic Swift lyric: purple but precise, self-involved yet self-aware—all in all, about as spot-on a description of a young woman’s turbulent inner life as you’re likely to hear on hit radio.

The more time goes by, the more sense it makes that Taylor might actually have more in mind than LP5 and The Giver. It seems to me that she's more exited than previous eras and she keeps mentioning her "project". Something bigger is coming 
Also, she's been doing the same routine for 4 albums now, I think she might decide to do something different this time 
Or maybe I am too exited and anxious about it I'm thinking that it will be bigger than it is.

^I think both sides are doing too much. I agree that the Max Martin-produced songs don't sound fully Taylor (maybe except for IKYWT imo) and that MM's involvement quite obviously watered down the lyrics, but I also think that the MM tracks still have a bit of Taylor in them. They do have a bit of her usual style that makes them identifiable as TS songs. Not as much as her other work, of course, but still there's some of Taylor in them. So, while I completely do not support the involvement of MM on LP5 in any shape, way or form, I think we should not do too much.

You're right, maybe now after 18 months on the charts to $9.99. But, I remember how impressed the critics were when she sold 1.2 mil the first week at full rate with no gimmicks/special discounts . Believe... they were searching coz they mentioned it.
Also, the major record labels have big artists on their roster. Taylor is really the only one on her label pulling big numbers. Florida/Georgia line (but no where near Taylor's sales #'s) So, they need the coins. The major labels can afford to discount their artists albums.
Columbia Records alone has: Adele, Beyoncé, 1D, Pharrell Williams, John Mayer, Calvin Harris, Mariah Carey and more.

Why can't we all just shut up and listen to Taylor?

It's certainly good for her career she can always fall back on country as she gets older.

Had She, Her team, and Her stans not selling Her as some 'genius' or 'authentic' act, that is SO DIFFERENT from the other things going on, it won't be much of a problem actually. I'm just calling out their ridiculous gimmick, while I also am not liking much whatever She puts out these days.
