On March 13th 2027, Swift released the cover for her mysterious and new thirteenth album, which featured her outside in what looked like a field, with trees in the background. "After two years I am releasing my brand new album called The 13th which will be releasing on June 13th 2027!" Swift had said the following day. This also proved that she was indeed making new music during 2026.
The following week, Swift announced that since 13 was her lucky number, the album would feature 13 tracks, going through each of her 12 albums and a different genre. The tracks featured titles that had one of her albums, followed by and album she wrote and version, for example "1989's Version" or "Reputations Version". This got fans excited.
