This was one of the biggest music weeks in a long time. Taylor Swift now officially owns her masters—her first six albums are finally hers—and Miley Cyrus just dropped what I truly believe is the best album of her career. I break it all down in this week’s episode.

We get into the full Taylor masters timeline, the $360M deal, what this means for the re-records, and whether Reputation (TV) is actually off the table. Plus: my review of Something Beautiful, Lorde’s raw return, and Addison Rae proving she’s more than a TikTok star.

In this episode:

• Taylor Swift’s masters: full backstory + what happens next
• Miley Cyrus Something Beautiful review + top 3 tracks
• Lorde’s “Man of the Year” breakdown
