Taylor Swift and her fame have remained unapologetic since her initiation. Be it for her musical excellence or her breaking records with her concert movie, this year has been witness to her authoritarian showcase. Her fandom, better known as Swifites, has been largely one of the biggest aficionados of the pop icon. While her popularity among common people is no news, her far-reaching impression on the people within the industry is one. 

Taylor Swift’s eminence in the contemporary world is celebratory, to say the least. But her importance in the music sector has reached the pinnacle, at least for the Canadian rapper, Drake. According to Drake’s recent single release called ‘Red Button’, he deemed the ‘Love Story’ singer’s music worth his own album’s pushback whispers. He allegedly confessed, “Taylor Swift the only one I ever rated, only one that could make me drop the album just a little later” as part of his lyrics.

Now, with her mention in Drake’s recently released single, the charts of anticipation have grown up and forward for the artist’s fame. Given Swift’s album took release around the wee hours of the Canadian rapper announcing the delay, fans speculate that the album allegedly referred could be ‘For All the Dogs’.
