Fans will also get a chance to listen to Swift\u2019s album on Spotify and Apple Music when it comes out. <\/p>\n
(Hilarious Note: Spotify has reportedly been preparing for the release after fan traffic crashed the site in October 2022 following the release of Swift\u2019s previous album, Midnights.)<\/p>\n
Will There Be Any Affiliated Music Videos?<\/h2>\n Does the following Instagram post answer this question?<\/p>\n
Swift recently teased the \u201cTTPD Timetable\u201d with an animated video posted to Instagram that confirmed a music video for one of the new songs will be dropping Friday evening at 8 p.m. EST. EEK!<\/em><\/p>\nThe social media footage opens on a clock reading 2:00 inside a room that\u2019s reminiscent of Swift\u2019s 1970s-inspired Midnights visuals. <\/p>\n
The camera then exits the room and moves down a bland hallway before landing on a door labeled, \u201cThe Tortured Poets Department.\u201d <\/p>\n
Entering through the keyhole, we see a sparse black and white space that features two desks facing each other with empty chairs. Atop the desks are black typewriters, loose papers and coffee cups.<\/p>\nTaylor Swift reacts after the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime during Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium on February 11, 2024 in Las Vegas.

I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve ever told you that,\u201d Swift said in February on stage while accepting the Best Pop Vocal Album award for her last original album. <\/p>\n
\u201cI want to say thank you to the members of the Recording Academy for voting this way, but I know that the way that the Recording Academy voted is a direct reflection of the passion of the fans.\u201d<\/p>\n
She then dropped the bombshell:<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to say thank you to the fans by telling you a secret that I have been keeping from you for the last two years, which is that my brand new album comes out April 19th. It\u2019s called The Tortured Poets Department. I\u2019m gonna go post the cover right now backstage. <\/p>\n
\u201cThank you, I love you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
