Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.
Smino shares new song “Mister Misfit but Ain’t Missed a Fit in Months”

As the song’s title suggests, “Misfit” is an ode to Smino’s swag. “This some rich shit, like Gucci pampers for my runts,” Smino raps at the beginning of the song over a beat with the looped chipmunked soul of early Kanye West and the bounce of UGK.
josshflores directs the music video (with creative direction from City James), which sees Smino putting his money where his mouth is and playing four separate people in a studio session, each dressed in a very solid fit.
