Swift signed a recording contract with Big Machine Records in 2005 and released six albums under the label. Her self-titled debut album (2006) spent more weeks on the US Billboard 200 chart than any other album in the 2000s decade,[7] and her second studio album, Fearless (2008), was the only album from the same decade to spend one year in the top 10 of the Billboard 200.[8] Fearless was Swift's first album to top the charts in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.[9] Her next studio albums—Speak Now (2010), Red (2012), 1989 (2014), and Reputation (2017)—all reached number one on the Billboard 200, and each of them sold over one million US first-week copies.[10] All four albums reached number one in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand;[11][12] and the latter three all reached number one in the United Kingdom.[12]
Under a recording contract with Republic Records signed in 2018,[13] Swift has released five original studio albums—Lover (2019), Folklore (2020), Evermore (2020), Midnights (2022), and The Tortured Poets Department (2024)[14]—all of them peaked atop the Billboard 200.[5] Lover was Swift's first to reach number one in Spain[15] and Sweden,[16] and Midnights and The Tortured Poets Department each sold one million first-week copies in the United States;[5] the latter broke the record for the highest single-week vinyl sales.[17] All of these albums reached number one in Australia, Canada,[11] Ireland,[18] New Zealand,[12] and the United Kingdom.[12]
Swift's departure from Big Machine resulted in a dispute over the ownership of her first six studio albums in 2019, which made her re-record them. She has released four re-recorded albums—Fearless (Taylor's Version) (2021), Red (Taylor's Version) (2021), Speak Now (Taylor's Version) (2023), and 1989 (Taylor's Version) (2023)—all of which reached number one in Australia, Canada,[11] Ireland,[18] New Zealand,[12] the United Kingdom,[19] and the United States.[20] Fearless (Taylor's Version) was the first re-recorded album to top the Billboard 200,[21] and 1989 (Taylor's Version) sold over a million US first-week copies.[22] With 1989 (Taylor's Version), Swift became the first artist to have the best-selling US album of a calendar year seven times, after Fearless (2009), 1989 (2014), Reputation (2017), Lover (2019), Folklore (2020), and Midnights (2022).[23]
