Ever since Taylor Swift began re-releasing her albums, fans have eagerly anticipated the re-release of Reputation. Numerous hints over the past few months have led fans to believe that Reputation (Taylor’s Version) is on the horizon. Meanwhile, a recent fan theory suggests that Swift might announce the release on August 2, 2024. Here are all the details.
Will Taylor Swift release Reputation (Taylor’s Version) on August 2?
There has been no official announcement that Taylor Swift will release Reputation (Taylor’s Version) on August 2, 2024.
However, fans are buzzing with speculation that Taylor Swift might announce Reputation (Taylor’s Version) on August 2, 2024. This prediction stems from the “175 theory” shared by fans in a Twitter thread, which revolves around Swift’s fondness for the number 13. Notably, there were 175 days between the releases of 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and The Tortured Poets Department. Counting this 175-day pattern from The Tortured Poets Department points to October 11, which mirrors the original Reputation release date of November 10.
This makes it a significant date for a potential announcement. Historically, Swift’s albums like 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and The Tortured Poets Department have had gaps of around 75-79 days between their announcements and releases. If she announces Reputation (Taylor’s Version) on August 2, a 70-day gap until the release would fit this pattern.
Several hints further suggest August 2 as the announcement date. Recently, Hayley Williams hinted at Reputation during a Munich concert. She asked the crowd, “Do you feel… ready for it?” This performance was streamed by Taylor Nation on YouTube for precisely 13 minutes, a subtle nod to Swift’s favorite number. Furthermore, Swift posted photos from the Munich concert, including one that appeared to signal an upcoming announcement.
Additionally, Kanye West is releasing an album on August 2. Given their history, Swift might choose this date to overshadow his release. Moreover, her next Instagram post will be her 666th, a number associated with the villainous theme of the Reputation era. All these hints have fans eagerly anticipating an announcement from her on August 2, 2024.
