The latest dispatch from The Desk of Taylor Swift is a new Eras tour setlist to make way for her 11th studio album Department of Tormented Poets.
Last week, Swift brought her blockbuster tour to Europe for the first time, playing four shows at Paris' La Defense Arena. After a year of concerts — not to mention the release of her Eras tour movie in theaters and a stream on Disney+ as well — the pop superstar made wholesale changes to the well-worn setlist, rebuilding the line-up, combining two seasons into one and adding a seven-song section dedicated to her latest release.
In the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie and Keith (who have been to two Eras tour concerts each) take a closer look at the changes Swift implemented for the European launch. Listen below:
Also on the show, we've got new charts on how the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake feud continues to heat up the charts, as Lamar's “Not Like Us” debuts at No. 1, his “Euphoria” moves into the top 10, and Drake's “Family Matters” debuts at No. 7. Also on the Billboard 200, Dua Lipa scores her highest-charting album ever with her new studio Radical Optimism debuts at No. 2, behind a third week at No. 1 for Swift's Tormented poets.
