American singer and song writer, Taylor Swift, has just released her new album titled "Reputation" on Nov. 10, and has received a lot of positive reviews from fans. It appears that Swift exceeded everyone's expectations and "Reputation" could just be in the running for best-selling album of the year.

In a report by Billboard, critics have been "singing its praises" for Swift's sixth album. "Reputation" has changed other people's perspective of her, as she has shown a more dynamic aspect on writing songs. On Swift's Instagram page, she posted screenshots of some of the positive things that have been said about her new album. The singer expressed gratitude as well.

According to News.com.au, a total of nine screenshots was shared by Swift, all of which contained praises from different critic sources. It can be surmised that the pop singer is quite proud of her achievement. Accumulatively, the nine posts of praise have reached 2.9 million likes in total from Swift's fans.

However, some people might think that nine posts of praise could be a little too excessive, despite being proud. Despite her posts on social media, Rolling Stone has reported that Swift is being "cryptic" and secretive regarding the details of the songs that were written in the album.

Regardless of what people think about Swift, the numbers do not lie. Swift's music label, Big Machine, has estimated that "Reputation" will be selling two million copies in the first week of sales. Fans of the singer have also been sounding off on social media and expressing how much they have been enjoying Swift's latest work.

In other Swift-related news, Apple Music has experienced some difficulties in delivering the pre-ordered albums for buyers since the servers have been lagging due to traffic. An estimated 400,000 people pre-ordered the album.

Taylor Swift's sixth album, "Reputation," is available now.
