It is pretty easy to remember the number of records Taylor Swift’s 'The Tortured Poets Department' has not broken— because, frankly, there are not many. The 35-year-old pop sensation has smashed a ton of records since releasing her 11th studio album. Once again, she is back to her record-breaking business—and the timing could not be more perfect this time. With the 2025 Grammy ceremony coming up, Swift has her entire fanbase celebrating a huge streaming milestone with her 2024 album.

'The Tortured Poets Department' made Taylor Swift the first artist in the modern era to drop seven different albums, each selling at least 1 million copies in just one week. But aside from record sales, the album has been on a streaming spree too. Just recently, it surpassed 6.9 billion Spotify streams, making it the most-streamed album of 2024 by a huge margin. And this milestone has sparked conversations among Swifties about the album being one of the major front-runners for the Grammy race.

Swift is up for six nominations, including the Album of the Year accolade. If she does win in the category this year, it will be her fifth Album of the Year trophy— which is more than any other artist in Grammy history. But the race is not as clear-cut as it might seem. There are some very strong competitors in the Grammy, who could stand in the way of her breaking this record. But Swifties are still holding on to hope.
