Taylor Swift’s latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, seems to have leaked online a day before its launch, sending fanatics into a craze.

Swifties have been buzzing on social media after an unreleased album containing 17 tracks reportedly leaked online. Some fans have been sharing the tracks, while others are holding out for the official release on Friday. The BBC has reached out to Swift‘s representatives for comment.

Mixed Reactions Among Fans

While some fans have eagerly dived into the leaked tracks, others are adamant about waiting for the official release out of respect for Taylor Swift and her team’s hard work. On social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter), debates have sparked over whether listening to the leaked album is appropriate.

Respecting Swift’s Work

Many fans argue that listening to the leaked album disrespects Swift and her team’s meticulous planning for the official release. 

Some emphasize the importance of experiencing the album for the first time on its intended release date, while others express concerns about the potential negative impact of leaks on Swift’s commercial success.

Speculations arose among fans about the authenticity of the leaked tracks, with some suggesting they could be AI-generated fakes. 

This wouldn’t be the first time Swift has encountered issues with AI, as explicit AI-generated images of the singer circulated on social media platforms earlier this year.

Anticipation for New Material

The leak comes amid high anticipation from Swift’s fanbase for her 11th studio album, announced at the Grammy Awards in February. 

Fans are eager to add new material to Swift’s blockbuster Eras tour, scheduled to hit Europe this summer. Despite the leak, Swift’s previous album “Midnights” still saw commercial success, selling 1.6 million copies in its first week in the US.
