Dear Taylor Swift,

I've been an avid fan for years. 11 years, to be exact. The first song I ever heard from you was off of your debut album, "Our Song," and I immediately fell in love. I remember being a young seven-year-old, sitting in my closet with my CD player (remember when those were a thing?) listening to this song on repeat. When I "graduated" fifth grade, I listed you as my inspiration. I used to have a blog centered on you (even if this is a little embarrassing for me, as an adult, to admit). I counted on your album release schedule that you stood by for five whole albums: every two years, around October, you'd release a brand new record with amazing songs that spanned from country to pop.

So, I'd just like to say; your last album was released October 2014.

It is now seven months into 2017, and there is still NO ALBUM.

Not only am I grossly outraged, but I am terribly disappointed in you. I knew you were taking a break from music; you said so yourself. But we are now nine months past your original album release deadline, and I feel like a mother who hasn't seen their daughter in months, even though you once promised you'd visit me every two years. You broke that promise. And now I'm going to write you off my will.

I'm not sure if you think waiting forever is going to increase excitement or attention about this new upcoming album (which diehard fans have aptly named TS6), but I think we are all just a little annoyed. Like, you're just letting everyone else in the music industry take the spotlight. Katy Perry just released an album mid-2017, and we all know the feud between you is everlasting. Drake gave us another track of hits. Your besties Lorde, Camila Cabello, and Haim have either released or have promised to release records before the end of this year. So where is my album, Swift!?

I know, I know. This is probably some marketing ploy and you'll top your own album(s) and you could release it December 31 at 11:59 and still somehow be crowned top album of 2017,a little like when you released 1989 in October 2014 and earned that title of the year with only two months to spare. But come on. I'm impatient, T-Swizzle. We had the Kimye drama. We had your breakups from two very prominent figures in the celebrity world, Calvin Harris and Tom Hiddleston. And I understand you don't always use your relationships as song fodder, but to say you don't at all is simply untrue. So, I know you have some bangers in your head, on paper, or possibly even already produced; the only thing you have to do now is to release it to the public. Like, you could drop an album as soon as this article is published, and I have no doubt it'll top charts and break records.

So, in conclusion: pull a Beyonce and drop your album with no warning in the middle of the night with absolutely no promotion.

Or, at the very least, announce your new album.

I'm counting on your to drop your next mediocre songs within the next month, Taylor Alison Swift.
