Taylor Swift’s 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology (TTPD), is already making waves, breaking records within hours of its release.

In nine hours, the Grammy-winning musician’s most recent release surpassed Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter to become the highest debut for a 2024 album on Spotify.

Her album garnered 300.41 million on-demand official streams in its first full week, but Swift’s ‘TTPD’ quickly outpaced it.

Simultaneously, the Anti-Hero hitmaker’s album soared to number one in over 60 countries on iTunes.

After nine hours of release, her single Fortnight on Apple Music topped the charts in 33 countries, including the UK, the US, and the UK, making it her most successful to date.

Swift’s influence goes beyond streaming services; her album “TTPD” has become the best-selling album in the United States for 2024 and has set a record for the biggest debut on Amazon Music.

It may sell two million copies in the US alone in its first week of sales, according to projections.

Fortnight, Florida!!!, Down Bad, and So Long London are some of the notable singles that are now topping Spotify’s stream charts.

Swift’s most recent work has received high praise from critics; Rolling Stone gave it a perfect score of 100.

Music journalist Rob Sheffield praised the album’s fusion of intimacy from Folklore and Evermore with the synth-pop elements of Midnights, describing it as ‘wildly ambitious and gloriously chaotic.’
