Taylor Swift does not simply drop albums; she crafts riddles in rhyme and dares the internet to catch up. Each move, each outfit, and each oddly placed clock in a music video carries a suspicious weight. She has even turned Spotify and Apple Music into her own puzzle boards, once dropping cryptic lyric visuals on Spotify canvases and rearranging playlists to tease upcoming themes. Being a Swiftie requires a magnifying glass and a degree in symbolism, even more now with her latest stunt on Apple Music.

Swifties tighten their trench coats, for her missing originals have become the case of the week. The original versions of Taylor Swift’s early albums, those that have since been re-recorded, are now mysteriously hidden on Apple Music. They have not been deleted, merely tucked. Fans are split: some are thrilled, hoping this signals a final nail in Scooter Braun’s licensing profits, while others suspect it is yet another clue, teasing Swift’s next grand reveal.

Which brings us to the man behind the masters, Scooter Braun. In 2019, he acquired Big Machine Label Group, and with it, Taylor Swift’s first six albums. Swift was not amused, claiming she never got the chance to buy her own work. Thus began a headline-making feud that turned into a glittery revolution where she re-recorded everything. Think of it as the songstress flipping the music industry’s table, gracefully, in heels, and with a perfectly timed key change.

The real mystery, however, lies in the ever-persistent hunt for 'Reputation (Taylor’s Version)'. Could Swift’s originals disappearing from Apple Music be the clue to her next great unveiling?

They are convinced that 'Reputation' will drop this year, armed with what they believe are irrefutable clues. As they piece it all together, Taylor Swift continues to drop hints like a magician pulling rabbits from an exquisitely fashionable hat.
