Taylor Swift and Gracie Abrams Score Billboard 200 Feats: What Does It Mean for Both Eras Tour Artists?
Five Burning Questions looks at Taylor Swift's 10-week No. 1 'The Tortured Poets Department' and Gracie Abrams' No. 2-bowing 'The Secret of Us.'

But it’s important to note that Abrams was headed in this direction for years before her association with Swift really developed, building a devoted fanbase, honing her writing and strengthening her performance, securing the right collaborators and slowly but surely extending her reach.
