Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff re-create iconic moment to celebrate her historic masters purchase

Taylor Swift is enjoying her “Reputation” era again after breaking the news that she now owns her master recordings.

Swift announced in a May 30 letter on her website that after re-recording four of her albums — dubbed “Taylor’s Version” — she bought back all of her masters, including her 2006 self-titled debut and 2017’s “Reputation.”

Swift’s longtime friend and producer, Jack Antonoff, shared a video of the duo on X the night of May 30 as they enjoyed a “guilt free” listen of “Reputation” to celebrate the news.

In the clip, Swift and Antonoff sang the album’s ninth track, “Getaway Car” and re-created a viral moment from her 2020 documentary “Miss Americana” where they wrote the song together. Swift was initially carrying her cat Meredith at the start of the video before placing the feline down to finish the tune with Antonoff, who screamed as the clip ended.

“rep forever guilt free listening!” Antonoff captioned the post.

After re-recording four of her albums, including “Fearless,” “Speak Now,” “Red” and “1989,” Swift addressed in her May 30 letter to fans whether she would be re-releasing the rest of her first six albums to complete the project.

“What about Rep TV? Full transparency: I haven’t even re-recorded a quarter of it,” Swift wrote on her website. “The Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it…To be perfectly honest, it’s the one album in those first 6 that I thought couldn’t be improved upon by redoing it. Not the music, or the photos, or the videos. So I kept putting it off.”

However, Swift shared, “I’ve already completely re-recorded my entire debut album, and I really love how it sounds now.”

Whether fans will get to hear “Taylor’s Version” of those two albums — or even just the vault tracks — remains unknown, with the singer writing, “But if it happens, it won’t be from a place of sadness and longing for what I wish I could have. It will just be a celebration now.”

After working with Swift on several tracks from 2014’s “1989,” Antonoff and Swift kicked off a long partnership of co-writing and producing her subsequent albums, including “Reputation,” “Lover,” “Folklore,” “Evermore,” “Midnights” and several songs on her most recent record, “The Tortured Poets Department.”

During an October 2023 appearance on “Sunday Sitdown with Willie Geist,” Antonoff opened up about his friendship and working relationship with Swift over the decades, including why he thinks they work so well together.

“That relationship has gone on and on and on and I think we’ve just pushed each other endlessly,” Antonoff explained. “I could quantify our relationship in very reductive ways about the things we agree on, the sounds we like, but the truth is, we’ve just grown together. She’s put an amazing amount of belief in me.”
