WASHINGTON: After Taylor Swift slammed Damon Albarn for his feedback during which he claimed that she “doesn’t write her own songs,” a number of celebrities have come to Swift’s defence on social media.
As per Billboard, in his latest interview, Albarn implied that trendy artists are counting on “the sound and the attitude” of their music for recognition. When the author Mikael Wood steered that Swift does not match that narrative, as she’s an “excellent songwriter,” Albarn disagreed, saying, “She doesn’t write her own songs.”
To assist Swift, her ‘Folklore’ and ‘Evermore’ collaborators, Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner, had been fast to leap on Twitter to touch upon how they’re those who’ve really seen Swift’s songwriting course of firsthand — not Albarn.
“i’ve never met damon albarn and he’s never been to my studio but apparently he knows more than the rest of us about all those songs taylor writes and brings in. herb,” Antonoff tweeted.

“Not sure why you @Damonalbarn would try to discredit Taylor’s brilliant songwriting but as someone who has gotten to press record around her …” Dessner mirrored. “Your statements couldn’t be further from the truth…you’re obviously completely clueless as to her actual writing and work process.”
Singer-songwriter Maisie Peters wrote, “taylor swift could write song 2 but damon albarn could never write all too well 10 minute version.”
Even the Empire State Building’s official account shared phrases of assist for the 11-time Grammy winner.
After retweeting Swift’s feedback, they wrote, “No one does it better than you.”
These tweets got here after Swift herself responded to Albarn, tweeting, “I write ALL of my own songs,” she wrote. “Your hot take is completely false and SO damaging. You don’t have to like my songs but it’s really f–ed up to try and discredit my writing. WOW.”
@DamonAlbarn I used to be such an enormous fan of yours till I noticed this. I write ALL of my very own songs. Your sizzling take is totally false and SO damaging. You don’t have to love my songs however it’s actually fucked as much as try to discredit my writing. WOW. https://t.co/t6GyXBU2Jd

“I totally agree with you,” Albarn tweeted in response to Swift’s remarks. “I had a conversation about songwriting and sadly it was reduced to clickbait. I apologise unreservedly and unconditionally. The last thing I would want to do is discredit your songwriting. I hope you understand.”
