Taylor Swift recruits Drake

The new Taylor Swift album will be inspired by R&B and hip-hop music.

Taylor Swift has recruited rapper Drake to help her create an “edgier” new album, according to a report.

Last month it was reported that the pair were working together on “different” but “catchy” new music. Now The Sun claims to have been informed that their new music is inspired by hip-hop and R&B.

The tabloid quotes an unnamed source as saying: “Taylor is always looking at ways to grow as an artist and really wants to try something different and unexpected for the next album. She’s not afraid of experimenting so is working with a lot of different faces to see if she suits a new sound.


A hip-hop Taylor Swift track isn’t hard to imagine. If you remember last year, Kendrick Lamar featured a verse on Swift’s track Bad Blood. Since it was a big hit, Swift thinks “her fans will like her going in this direction.

The source also said, “Drake has been her friend for a while and it seemed a no-brainer that she would spend time in the studio with him. As well as writing with Taylor, he’s producing a few tracks and even lent his vocals to one song. It’s a real mix of edgier hip-hop and R&B sounds.
