Taylor Swift makes a comeback with her single from her new album Reputation called Look What You Made Me Do. The song was released on August 24, 2017. In Look What You Made Me Do she sings about all of the people who have wronged her in the past year and now she is changed. Swift started as a sweet southern country star and transitioned her genre to pop. Previous to Swift’s single all of her songs revealed the sweet and innocent side of her. She writes about love and happier life experiences. Unlike her old music Look What You Made Me Do shows a whole new side a Swift. She comes off as angry and ready to get revenge on her enemies.

Swift’s name has been dragged through dirt in the past couple years. Rumors being spread of her dating people just to have a song to write, being called a liar and a snake. An era of a new Swift appears in Look What You Made Me Do. She begins to take her music to a whole new level. In this song fans hear Swift’s side of the story about all of the rumors and fake tabloids about her. The first line of the song Swift sings:

I don’t like your little games

don’t like you tilted stage

the role you made me play

of the fool, no I don’t like you

Here she is talking about she does not like how people have been playing games by talking about her and pointing her out to be a fool. She goes on to singing about how she has become smarter and has learned to longer trust anyone.

Swift is known for her detailed and elaborate music videos but this one is by far her best work. The video starts in a grave yard with a head stone that say “Here lies Taylor Swift’s Reputation.” She then pops out of the grave in zombie form wearing the last outfit from the last music video she made. This is very symbolic because she is claiming that her good girl reputation no longer exists. She makes many subtle hints through out the video of what is more to come with her music and new reputation. She ends the video with a group of Swift’s fighting to be on top but her new reputation wins in the end. Swift is very clever when it comes to her song writing and music videos. She points out many of her own flaws in her music and that is why she is a very real artist. People find Swift so appealing because she is very true to herself. She is a very empowering woman who has inspired many people to stand up for themselves. Her music has helped me through out my life, but I can relate to this song especially because she sings about the people who have wronged her. Look What You Made Me Do is an upbeat and catchy pop song that makes you want to get up dance and just simply be yourself.
