“I think Taylor Swift is a really good artist. I feel like her personality shines through everything she does, her music, her fashion, her style. She won Album of the Year, and she’s a really good writer. I’m a song writer so I respect artists who write their own songs. She won Album of the Year when she was 18 or something like that so, I think she’s dope.” ThinkingFeelsWritingYearsDoeArtistSongFashionStylePersonalityShiningAlbumsDopeGood WritersLike HerGood ArtGood Artist Author:Mike Posner
