Taylor Swift’s Surprise: Is She Dropping A New Album? [Report]


Taylor Swift has a surprise coming on Friday, Nov. 4. Does that mean the singer is dropping a new album? That’s what fans are hoping to find out.

Despite the fact that Taylor Swift revealed she’s on an extended hiatus from releasing new music, she has since collaborated with other artists. She recently collaborated with then-boyfriend Calvin Harris on his single “This Is What You Came For” featuring Rihanna. Then, Little Big Town announced earlier this week that Swift wrote their new single “Better Man,” leading fans to believe the song was about her relationship with Harris or Hiddleston.

Taylor’s team has fans denying to know what the singer is up to now that she has a surprise in store for them tomorrow. Her music record label, Universal Music Group, teased, “something you don’t want to miss” being unveiled. In addition to the tweet was a GIF wishing Taylor’s debut album, Taylor Swift, a happy 10th anniversary.

So, is she really dropping a new album? Maybe she will re-release her debut album, which is already out on vinyl. Swift could also release a greatest hits album in honor of her music career anniversary, which she has never done in the past. The album could include some remixes and some new songs to hold fans over until the next album.

No matter what’s coming, Swifties are already having a meltdown, according to Celebuzz.

Scott Borchetta, the president and CEO of Swift’s label Big Machine Records, previously denied the singer would release new music in October 2016. However, he has since deleted the tweet, leading some to believe that he was probably mistaken. But he has never denied a November 2016 release.

Swift made a surprise appearance at the 2016 Country Music Awards on Wednesday night. The singer shocked everyone when she returned to her country roots after releasing her first-ever pop album, 1989, in 2014. Swift was there to present the Entertainer of the Year Trophy to country music legend Garth Brooks.

“Hi, Nashville!” she nervously said as the crowd cheered. “It’s been almost 13 years since I came to Nashville with a dream of being a songwriter and a recording artist,” she continued. “And I learned so much about what it means to be an entertainer from the remarkable artists in this arena tonight. That’s just one of the reasons I feel so honored to present this next award to any one of these five outstanding nominees for Entertainer of the Year, and be a part of this historic night we’ll all remember.”

Two years ago, Rolling Stone published an interview with Taylor stating, “She says she won’t be going to country awards shows or promoting the album on country radio.”

So, does this mean that Swift is making her big return back to country music? That’s what staff writer Rebecca Smith for Refinery29 thinks. After Swift said she was never ever going to get back together with country music, she may try to get on the academy’s good graces especially if she has some new music on the way.

“Now she needs a stage again, she needs a comeback, so she turns to the exact stage that she broke up with. I realize that for the 50th anniversary of the CMAs, they were bringing back all of the people who influenced country music’s past. That definitely includes Taylor.”

Swift’s surprise appearance at the 2016 CMAs and her surprise for tomorrow comes after it was reported that she’s recording music with Drake, as reported via E! News. The two artists were rumored to have been dating after Swift showed up to Drake’s 30th birthday party last month. Inside sources insist that Drake and Taylor aren’t dating, but that they are working on something “different” together.
