Taylor Swift ‘s latest album , Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), is currently at the top of Billboard. This album was at number 1 in terms of both online and LP releases for the year.
This is the pop queen’s 12th album to top the Billboard charts. Taylor Swift (33 years old) has surpassed Barbra Streisand to take the position of the female artist with the most number of top 1 albums, as noted by Billboard.
With male artists, Jay-Z and The Beatles both have more than a dozen albums at the top of the Billboard. Swift is also the first living artist in nearly 60 years to have four albums hit the Billboard top 10 at the same time.
These albums include Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) Midnights, Lover and Folklore . According to Billboard, Taylor Swift is also the first living artist to have 11 albums simultaneously enter the top 200.
Swift’s record achievement at the moment is partly due to her performing many of her greatest hits during the stadium tour called “Eras”.
Taylor Swift’s series of performances at major stadiums will last 106 days, starting in March and ending in August 2024.
Swift’s charisma could make “Eras” the first billion-dollar tour.
The album Speak Now was released in 2010, but Swift later reclaimed the recording rights and confirmed that she would re-record her first six albums to control the music following copyright disputes.
To date, Swift has re-recorded the albums Speak Now, Fearless , and Red .
In October 2022, Swift became the first artist to simultaneously occupy all 10 positions on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart (100 most popular songs of the week) after releasing the studio album Midnights .
