Nowadays, it’s rare for an album to be released without any songs leaked beforehand, but that doesn’t make it any less disappointing for an artist. Taylor Swift is the latest to suffer this fate, as her highly anticipated eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, has been shared online without her permission. Individuals shared the tracks on social media, with many claiming they found them from a Google Drive link containing all 17 songs.

This has led to a divide among fans, as some are diving straight into their favorite musician’s work, while others see this as a deciding moment. Some individuals insist that “true” fans will wait for the official release tomorrow, when the album finally drops on April 19.

“Raise your hand if you’re an ACTUAL Taylor Swift fan and aren’t listening,” one fan wrote on X.

“People need to understand that this isn’t just about being a fan. It’s about respecting others of their hard work!” another user expressed. Another added “She and her team [have] planned and worked so meticulously for this album release, don’t disrespect and ruin it for others as well.”
