Tay Tay is the sissiest name I've ever heard.

I hate the rock for giving her that

I don’t get why she’s as big as she is. I wish someone could explain it to me other than just saying “she’s the best!!”. It’s so manufactured.

She’s a generic 6.5/10 with a mid signing voice, poor / childish song writing and mediocre talent. I mean ok, sure she’s famous but why is she a megastar? Even someone like say Ariana Grande can sing circles around her and there’s probably better songwriters at any given bar in Nashville. Why Taylor?

I don't get it either, but once she started getting mainstream attention, I guess a lot of folks just like skinny blonde girls who can sing generically catchy tunes. And I'm sure her clean public image helps.

It does sound like she has her dad to thank for bankrolling her first label and career launch. But this doesn't take anything away from her. We all know that success in life is a combo of hard work, being in the right place at the right time, and luck.



Big Machine Records was founded by Scott Borchetta, a former punk rock bass guitar player who had worked in the mailroom of his father Mike's music company and became a promotions staff member in 1991 for Universal Music Group's MCA Records. According to Bloomberg Businessweek, Borchetta was an "involved manager" at MCA, "choosing singles and dispensing advice." After he was fired from MCA in 1997, Borchetta accepted a role at the Nashville division of DreamWorks Records, but later decided to start his own label after Universal acquired the division.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-Scott-3"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a> Before he left DreamWorks, Borchetta approached Taylor Swift and her family after the musician performed at the Bluebird Café in Nashville, Tennessee, after first meeting her in 2004. At the time, Borchetta had no infrastructure or financing. He made an offer to Swift and her parents, whereby he would recruit her to the new label's roster after it was established. Swift eventually recontacted Borchetta around two weeks later, telling him: "I'm looking for you."<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-Scott-3"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a>

He formed the label in 2005, naming it "Big Machine" after a 2004 song by the band Velvet Revolver.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-4"><span>[</span>4<span>]</span></a> The first signees to Big Machine were Jack Ingram and Danielle Peck. Big Machine's first album release was Ingram's Live: Wherever You Are, a re-release of a live album he had previously issued independently in 2004. The album features two new studio tracks, "Wherever You Are" and "Love You", both of which were released as singles.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-5"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></a> In mid-2006, "Wherever You Are" off this album reached number one on Billboard Hot Country Songs, thus becoming the label's first single to top that chart.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-6"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></a>

Soon after, Big Machine released Swift's first ever recording, the single "Tim McGraw" and her debut album Taylor Swift. Keith dropped his affiliation with the label in 2006, but he was reported as an equity holder in November 2014, alongside the Swift family and Borchetta (the latter reportedly owning 60 percent of the company at the time). In October 2012, Borchetta told Rolling Stone magazine: "[Taylor Swift's father] Scott Swift owns three percent of Big Machine."<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-Stark-2"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-Scott-3"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Machine_Records#cite_note-7"><span>[</span>7<span>]</span></a>

Great to use ones influence for positivity, regardless of the pr... I know a president who does the same yet gets very little or no credit. I think a lot of rich people do things like this but often silently because it's more for the recipients than the rich person.

I’ve only blocked like 3 people in 20+ years here. That guy is one of them. I suggest you do the same.

Also. Yes. I believe Taylor is a good human being overall.
