How Taylor Swift became Gracie Abrams’ secret weapon with new duet: ‘Us’ song review

nypost.com:

Taylor Swift is like winning the lottery in music right about now.We all saw what happened to Sabrina Carpenter’s career after she opened for Swift on her epic Eras Tour last year.

I mean, she blew all the way up — and now she’s got the song of the summer with “Espresso.”Now it’s Gracie Abrams’ turn to have a hot girl summer after also opening for Swift last year.

Call it her Post-Tay Era.Abrams even got the ultimate co-sign on her new album “The Secret of Us” — which dropped on Friday — from Swift herself.That’s right.

The Empress of Eras blesses this set on their duet “Us,” which they co-wrote while, you know, just chilling at Swift’s apartment in New York.And it’s not only the most anticipated song on Abrams’ sophomore album, but one of the most anticipated songs of the summer period.Does it live up to the hype?Yes … and no.First off, despite all of the Swiftie hoopla, this is not a single.
