00:00Taylor Swift's about to drop a brand new album that she says is full of bangers.
00:04That comes as no surprise as she worked on it with Max Martin and Shellback,
00:08the musical duo behind some of her biggest hits.
00:11We're taking a look back at just a few of their notable collaborations,
00:14with seven songs to revisit before the life of a showgirl.
00:18Swift first worked with the Swedish musical duo on her 2012 album, Red,

00:35Martin and Shellback also produced and co-wrote I Knew You Were Trouble with Swift,
00:40a song that marked new musical territory for the singer-songwriter
00:43and helped make way for her next era.
00:51After Red, Swift went full pop with her fifth studio album, 1989,
00:56and Martin and Shellback were her key collaborators.

01:01They worked with her on the Billboard Hot 100 number one hit, Shake It Off,
01:15and other now-iconic Swift songs, including Style.
01:27Given the sultry, the life of a showgirl visuals Swift has gifted fans so far,
01:32it seems like Style could set the tone for the sort of tracks we might hear on this new album.
01:36Martin and Shellback also produced and co-wrote How You Get The Girl with Swift for 1989,
01:41a song you could say outlined a roadmap for a certain Kansas City Chief's tight end.

01:57a fan-favorite on both the Reputation Stadium Tour and the Heiress Tour, if you know you know.
