No, I believe the average person has been conditioned for years by Taylors team to believe that songwriting is a rare gift in an effort to forgo her otherwise mediocre performing and singing talent. Let's be honest, writing some phrases down on paper is the easiest part of the entire process as proven by the fact that literally everyone in music is now doing it.

What else is she going to center it on? Her singing? dancing? More long term artists than not have engaged in writing their own songs, rather than hiring someone to do it for them for every single song. Taylor has taught her naive following to dramatically overvalue the concept of writing words and phrases. Theres a reason that all these NOVICE teenagers entering the music industry (Tate McCrae, Sabrina Carpenter, Dua Lipa, Lana del ray, Billie Eilish, etc) are able to write songs right off the bat before they develop literally any other skill that makes them a good performer - including singing.

I think it’s important to think about WHY Swift fans are so protective of her and attack when people question her talent or credibility. It’s because she dealt with *genuine* misogyny and targeted attacks for many years into her career. She really only cemented herself as a songwriter and an artist who contributes to her work in the PUBLIC CONSCIOUSNESS over the past few years. Before that, she was scoffed at, scorned, mocked, called a liar, and told that her co-writers carried her. To be clear-I hate Swifties who are unable to call her out for her wrongdoings, but this weird protectiveness doesn’t come out of nowhere. Until recently, blatant misogyny and the mocking of her and her work was widely accepted in mainstream culture. It makes me sad that Swift fans are now perpetuating this same behavior with Ariana.

Ariana’s pen and Taylor’s pen are very different, I don’t think there comparable writing wise, however I do believe that other fanbases are very attached to the idea that there favourite artist could be better song writers then someone like Taylor swift, The beetles, and Joni Mitchell. Which I understand because legendary acts are gonna be gonna be legendary acts but if you continually as a fan of someone keeps bringing up there favourites and comparing them to these rightfully legendary artists and go look how this legendary act is trash compared to my fave, and just drag legendary acts down to uplift your favourites. Don’t be surprised when that other fanbase starts to clap back. I’m tired of having these conversations when people drag down other artists to bring up other artists in any conversation. Now as an arianator, we both know people didn’t think of Ariana as a songwriter is because so much of her promotion was hey look it is and was Cat Valentine from victorious on her first 2 albums, then on her third album they promoted her as number 1 vocal pop diva, and on dangerous woman she was promoted as a hit maker who’s breaking away from this child friendly act, then on sweetener she was promoted as the girl who had a certain tragic event happen at one of her concerts, and on thank u next she was promoted as this scoured lover, on Positions she was promoted as in love and horny.

Whether an artist writes their songs or doesn't write their songs, and if that's important, depends on what you want from an artist. Its personally important to me to be able to dive in to an artists music personally. I feel like i can relate better when i am hearing their story from them. On the opposite side of things, however, someone might not necessarily care about that and only want the music side of things. Either way is totally fine. One person's preference or opinion doesn't negate another's. It is art, it will always be subjective. Lets stop pitting others(especially women) against each other. Besides! Even if they don't write a song themselves. They often times pick it because they relate to it and feel it tells their story. Listeners have that same experience all the time when listening to an artists song! Anyways, sorry for the rant. Have a good day everyone💜💜😘🥰😘

Both Taylor and Ariana write their songs, but I guess the difference is that Taylor’s lyrics are absolutely beautiful, they’re basically poems, or at least most of them. Ariana’s songs are not so “complex”; I listen to her since ages so far but unfortunately I’ve never found her way of writing particularly mature or deep, I don’t know if you’re getting me but that’s ok. So I think that this is the reason why Taylor’s skill of writing is always under the spotlight, but not Ariana’s. She’s unbeatable as a singer tho.

[@AGEE_95]

As a person whose read the best of poetry, there is nothing poetic to me about Taylor's songs. They come across as fake deep, and trying hard to seem like a poet. Someone whose songwriting feels more like poetry to me would be Lana Del Rey. She's ten times the songwriter Taylor is, and that's not even a question. Ariana has a different writing style that doesn't necessarily resemble poetry, but it's real and personal, and authentic. She writes like she's writing in her own journal.

I'm a huge fan of Lana Del Rey too & i do believe that she is a great songwriter. However, i do find that she's not as perfect of a songwriter that some regard her to be which is completely fine as quality cohesion isn't something that is easily sustained, unless if you're like Fiona Apple or Joni Mitchell. Taylor is imperfect in terms of her songwriting quality but deep in her music discography she has a pleathora of songs that beautifully showcases how talented she is as a songwriter and deserves her share of love & celebration.

Imagine having whistle notes as background vocals not everyone can do that. and I can easily say that POV is the song than any artist in the world rn can't even imagine to make something like that seriously first of all singing is off the charts and the lyrics are insanely good and emotions can easily be felt listening to that song.

[@AGEE_95]

Songwriting became a thing because of Taylor? See that's the issue with a lot of her fans, is they act like the woman invented songwriting. People were writing their own songs, and getting recognition for it long before she was born. Unless you were born yesterday, how is that not something you don't already know? Mariah had one of the greatest voices in music history, but she is also considered as one the greatest songwriters, same thing with Stevie Wonder. There are plenty of artists with great voices who have also been praised for their writing. Not everything comes down to Taylor, simply because she's having such a huge moment in pop. Songwriting has always been something people pride themselves on. Hip-hop/rap, is one of the main genres where you are basically required to write your own songs, in order to get respect from your peers who are also in that genre. Ariana has always spoken up about her songwriting, it's just that she is only just now being recognized for it.

[@trini2DBone134]

​@@mia-oq6qfother way around. Anyone who does music or does literature can write songs but not everyone can be a vocalist

[@vingo0893]

Taylor Swift is very play safe and never do something very provacative songs like Rihanna and Ariana did example birthday cake, safety net 34+35 or cockiness, S&M... that's the reason why hard for me to call Taylor as a popstar cause her works very safe and people pleasing songs

[@POLEARTH]

Try listening to her whole catalog instead of just listening to radio hits or singles. There are alot of her songs in her album that are daring and vulnerable. She writes about affairs, her cheating, her affairs, her sex, her feeling insecure, controversial people life & etc. Not only that, she writes poetically that normal people wouldnt understand easily and might require a dictionary so i doubt its "people pleasing" because if she wants to please people she would write with easy comprehensible words like ari and rihanna. I love ari and rihanna but those are just facts.

[@richmaxmchalliwchester1984]

Taylor isn´t provacative person, it´s not part of her personality and she won´t play a character for someone. She doesn´t write songs about her pussy. She has sexual songs, but she uses nice metaphors to describe things instead of being vulgar. She also has songs about various topics which people would understand if they gave a chance to her albums instead of listening to her singles that are very carefully pick to be huge hits but dont´s show even 10% of what kind of artist Taylor really is.

Girl, i can see you? Lavender haze? Dress? False god? So it goes?

[@fruityfluid]

she has alot of sex songs but its too poetic and creative that u think its not

[@PrakharMishra-ww8kq]

​@@POLEARTHI think what they are tryna say is that taylor's songs are not that boppy if you compare them to the songs of ariana and Rihanna and the main reason is vocal ability and i kinda agree. Ariana has so many songs that a lot of ppl can easily recognise and bop to them. No hate to Taylor she deserves all the fame that she has tho.

[@samsreymetpally9409]

i hate that swifties and arianators are beefing like ppl really don't understand what ari and tay can do together to the whole industry. it honestly bugs me especially as an arianator and a swiftie. its really stupid becuz ari and taylor have never had any beef but the fandoms are just showing their toxicity to each other. on twt swifties are shaming ariana's songwriting and arianators are discrediting Taylor's achievements and artistry. LIKE DUDE JUST GET ALONG YOU DONT KNOW THE POWER THESE TWO HOLD.

[@seyransfireflm]

wait, but what about "God Is a Woman"? wasn't it originally written for Camila Cabello and just after she rejected it passed to Ariana, meaning it was not her who wrote the song? No hate, I like Ariana's music

[@F1RACING23]

Apparently, Camila's demo was written by her but after she rejected it, Ariana took the song and rewrote it in a way she wanted it to fit, hopefully that clears up some stuff.

[@leahhoward7645]

She co-writes, she is more performer than lead writer… you can get songwriter credits if you’re presented with a song from your producer and then tweak/add something, even if the song eventually goes to someone else

[@OfficialJonahh]

For those who don’t listen to Taylor or know. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 Taylor does write her music and sometimes she does has co-writers but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t write it all. Like for Speak Now she wrote that on her own just to prove to the haters. Also Taylor writes songs for other artists. Also those swifties on twitter aren’t actually swifties for saying that about another female artists. Ariana’s and Taylor are talented in their own ways with their artistry.

[@valdi7777]

Who hasnt? Im lazy to watch the whole video

[@stephanieanderson2263]

Good job on Ariana Grande that she writes her own songs. I don't think Ariana is rebranding herself, I think she wants to be as authentic as she can be

[@danielleharan8078]

Do u know exactly what age she was when she got her first looper machine

[@SideEyeee_]

8:47 The Beatles (John Lennon & Paul McCartney) were songwriters but their songs aren’t popular in this day and age. Michael is the right exemple because he’s the most famous human after Jesus-Christ.

[@keganmallette4536]

Fyi: she did not, in fact, write the words you quoted at the beginning!

now why would u show an edit of taylor holding that good kush i- 💀💀

[@NoMadKid]

Ariana could take a notes from Taylor. She treats her albums/era as disposable products. Her rollout are basically known, single and an album a month later, then she ditch it.

[@headoverdiors]

i will never understand this obsession with song writing. that fanbase made it seem like song writing was the epitome of talent, when in reality, their fav isn’t even one of the better song writers out right now. she just used big words and tries to make her songs complex. is writing ur own songs impressive ? yes, but the way those people try to discredit every other aspect of an artist just cuz there’s more than one writer credited is insane. some of the biggest legends in music history never wrote their own songs. it was never that big of a deal. even thought ariana quite literally has been in the process of writing her own music forever, she just never cared to shine light on it like a certain someone.

[@victoriagarcesmua]

I think Taylor just talks about it so much because it’s her passion. She’s proud of her work and that’s a good thing. Ariana talks more about production so I think that is more so her passion, even though she’s a good songwriter too.

[@orlock20]

I believe the songwriting part of being an artist rather than a performer. Elvis Presley was a performer and not an artist.

[@SideEyeee_]

EXACTLY

[@SideEyeee_]

@@orlock20He also was a thief.

[@honeymoon1017]

don’t talk about katy perry like that when she has wrote all the songs of her discography and another ones for other artists, she’s not just a performer and singer, she’s a writer too

[@SideEyeee_]

Are people slow ? Songwriting or being a songwriter isn’t a Taylor thing. Legends have been writing real and better songs than Taylor like : Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, Prince, Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, Quincy Jones, Kendrick Lamar, Dolly Parton, and more !

[@ashleyann9468]

Britney wrote her own stuff too….

[@eric-0nline]

I'm sorry but saying Taylor is the gold standard is crazy

[@EmiliaLanders]

God is a woman…? Camilla Cabello has a whole recording of that song but she didn’t buy it? That doesn’t seem like Ariana bought it then

[@roysarold17]

Swifties are so ridiculous!!😮‍💨

[@infsai]

Why you mentioned Billie Eilish in this video? 💀 Yeah, she writes most of her songs, but she hates that, she admitted in many interviews that she prefer singing and arranging rather than writing.

[@angelica8000]

Both fandoms are toxic AF. I adore Ariana as an artist but don't think she is a very good person. I also think Taylor is a fantastic artist but not a very good singer. People need to chill and stop putting these singers on a pedestal

[@iiamdiifferentt]

taylor isn't a good person either

[@SideEyeee_]

Taylor ain’t no good either.

[@SideEyeee_]

7:10 Songwriting is NOT Taylor’s influence. Legends before her (she’s not a legend) have BEEN doing that. For exemple : Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, The Beatles, Mariah Carey, Prince, Adele & more !! Taylor didn’t invent anything new. She recycles everything and makes it mediocre.

[@nickolsen2493]

Lol let’s not pretend any of Ariana’s music has the depth and skill Taylor’s does.

[@hunniii2356]

who said that- are you stupid?

[@marlene7892]

Literally no one said that. They don’t want to give Ariana credit for writing, even though she has been doing it for most of her songs since the beginning (even if she has other collaborators)

[@SideEyeee_]

Taylor is NOT the greatest of all time and she’s FAR from it. Michael Jackson is whether as a singer, SONGWRITER, vocal arranger, producer and entertainer.

[@swiftie10000]

I love Ari, but idk shes like a FULL Songwriter, yh she writes some of her songs and in all her songs gives Ariana credits of songrwrtiter, but i think she js helps changing sum words or a sentence, but as far as ik she hasnt writed a WHOLE new album, but STILL her VOCALS SLAY ❤❤

[@trini2DBone134]

why do you assume that? weirdo

[@AmxthystDxrk]

But she doesn't write her music, look at the credits on the music, snd half of it doesn't have Ariana Grande as a songwriter

[@supercalifragilisticex]

Everyone who edited or provided aid will be credited, it would be unrealistic for her to be the only credited one.

[@roses.and.mint0]

Ariana started to really write her songs with Sweetener. Her latest album is almost entirely self-written. When you take into account that she also produces the song, mixes the vocals, writes, and sing, its truly incredible. She is a writer and has written and produced for other people. She also credits anyone who gave her ideas or pitched even just one lyric. She gives everyone credit as it’s deserved.
