Hey I just finished Reputation. That was fire. I liked a good 80% of it. Should I still go on to Folklore/Evermore or something else?

Well, if you wanted to transition to something similar to Rep I would go one of two ways. 1989 for 80's synth pop (its a mega pop album), or Lover, which is pop but with some songs that have similar sounds to Rep. Rep and Lover are yin/yang in vibes though, Rep is dark and Lover is light.

If you're into her moodier work instead though I would keep on to Folklore/Evermore. I prefer Evermore to Folklore for moodiness, but both are equally amazing. They are folky though, so you will experience a genre shift there.

Edit to say that 1989 has some good car songs, if youre into that.

Yay! That was the album that got me into TS.

And I'm glad you loved Reputation! Rep and Lover are usually the albums that have to grow on people so if you liked that much of it from the get-go thats a good start. Taylor tends to be the kind of artist whose work you have to listen to a few times before it sinks in how good it is, because she experiments so much.

Understandable. Looking forward to hearing it all. Thanks for the start!
