Taylor Swift appeals to every age group and demographic in the world. Whether the fan is as old as a 70-year-old or a 4-year-old, they sure know how to sing a Swift song at the top of their lungs.
Following Swift's bombshell of an album, a group of mothers aired their concerns on social media after they found out that some of Swift's lyrics in The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD) are too mature for young audiences.
Taylor Swift Lyrics on TTPD Too Mature For Kids?
Swift's newest album contained seven explicit songs, which was quite a lot for a Swift album.
On a Facebook group, a member shared her unfiltered critique of Swift's newest album, grazing on the fact that the album might make mothers try to keep their little ones away from this album as much as possible.
"I feel bad for all the Taylor Tots because most parents are not going to deem this album appropriate," the fan said.
True enough, the member's analysis was correct. Swift's TTPD contained themes of suicide, death, sex, harm, and even violence.
Eventually, people left comments that agreed with the original poster's thoughts.
"This album is definitely NOT suitable for kids," one echoed.
"I'm OK with the curse words, but there's a lot of self-harm, violence, and death talk I'm not feeling comfy with at this second," another shared.
"I'm going to sleep on it and give it a few more listens before I decide how I'm going to approach it with my 9 year old," a fan mulled.
Meanwhile, a fan suggested that mothers should just make their children listen to Swift's more child-friendly songs.
"I don't think her lyrics are for kids anymore as well. And that's OK. Let the kids listen to her older stuff then when they are 21, give them the rest and let them figure it out," one suggested.
"But that's so hard to explain to her younger fans who love her so much. I have a 10 year old," another chimed in.
Taylor Swift 'I Hate It Here' Racist, Tone Deaf?
Aside from being tagged as mature, some fans are saying that Swift's lyrics on "I Hate It Here" were tone-deaf for her.
"My friends used to play a game where / We would pick a decade / We wished we could live in instead of this / I'd say the 1830s but without all the racists / And getting married off for the highest bid," she sang on the controversial verse.
"Pretty astonishing to stipulate that she wants to live in the 1830s, 'except without the racists,' and not mention slavery, so slavery still exists but everyone's chill about it.", a fan told The Mirror.
"I know I can't stfu abt Taylor Swift but of all time periods WHY THE 1830s? ? ? The most notable event from the time period is the trail of tears like I cannot wrap my head around it? "another said.
