The primary songwriter behind every song in her catalog. Taylor Swift is the rare artist who has written or co-written every track across all of her albums. She famously self-wrote the entirety of Speak Now to prove her songwriting credibility, penning all fourteen tracks without a single co-writer. From her teenage Nashville beginnings crafting country narratives to the indie-folk poetry of Folklore and the confessional maximalism of The Tortured Poets Department, her songwriting has evolved through every genre while retaining its signature emotional specificity and narrative detail.
