Taylor Swift has set yet another record.
As her latest album ‘Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)‘ hit No. 1 over the weekend, swift became the first woman to have four albums in Billboard’s Top 10 simultaneously.
Her three other albums — ‘Midnights’ (2022) is standing at No. 5, ‘Lover'(2019) at No. 7 and ‘Folklore’ (2020) at No. 10.
According to Billboard, Swift is one of only three artists to ever accomplish the feat since the charts began in 1963, joining Herb Alpert and Prince.
In her efforts to recreate all the albums she originally recorded for her former label, Big Machine —’Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)’ has become the best selling record of her three re-recordings, topping the Billboard 200 with 716,000 album-equivalent units (507,000 in traditional album sales)— the fifth-largest in the past five years.
With 12 No. 1 albums under her belt, the 33-year old now has the most No. 1 albums in history of any female artist.
On her socials, Swift wrote, “I first made Speak Now, completely self-written, between the ages of 18 and 20.
The songs that came from this time in my life were marked by their brutal honesty, unfiltered diaristic confessions and wild wistfulness. I love this album because it tells a tale of growing up, flailing, flying and crashing … and living to speak about it.”
Swift is currently in the US performing her Eras Tour before heading to Australia in February next year.
