Taylor Swift is currently at the peak of her career after she secured the prestigious Album of the Year award at the Grammys for the fourth time. The recent musical night saw her album, Midnights, earning her the top honour. Swift, known for her surprises, left fans overjoyed during her acceptance speech by announcing her brand new album, The Tortured Poets Department, scheduled to release on April 19. Keeping the excitement alive, the Love Story singer delighted her fans by sharing the complete tracklist for her upcoming album on X. Interestingly, the list features collaborations with renowned and talented musicians like Post Malone and Florence and the Machine.

Swift took to social media to share a sneak peek into her upcoming album, which featured the artwork and names of 16 songs along with the name of a bonus track, The Manuscript. Among the surprises, the list includes the names of Malone for the song Fortnight and Florence on the track titled Florida.

Sharing the exciting news, the singer simply wrote, “April 19,” accompanied by white heart emoji.

In a 2015 cover story with Billboard, Florence Welch, the lead artist of Florence and the Machine, shared life changing advice she received from her friend and mutual fan, Taylor Swift. She said, “Taylor said that you must sing about what’s happening in your life.” While Swift praising her added, “What sets Florence apart? Everything. Every time I’ve been around her, she is the most magnetic person in the room, surrounded by people who are fascinated by the idea of being near her. But when she meets people, she pays them a warm compliment and immediately disarms them. There are very few people I’ve met in my life who are truly electric and Florence is one of them.”

On the other hand, Post Malone in an interview with Howard Stern spoke about the time when he met Swift, he shared, “We were just passing by and she was like, ‘Oh my God. Nice to see you.” While Malone replied, “Better Now and I was like, ‘What? That’s fu***ng’ crazy, you’re a great fu***ng songwriter. Thank you so very much’.”

The Tortured Poets Department will be Taylor Swift’s first album since October 2022’s Midnights, which earned her Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album awards at the Grammys 2024.
