  • "the best is yet to come". she was so right, because Taylor gave us folklore
  • @fedefalcon13
    Can you imagine one day Taylor will be standing in Carol King’s place and giving out the award to a new generation of artists.
  • I think she doesn't deserves artist of the decade because she deserves artist of the century!!!!!!!
  • Okay so people arguing over Beyonce Taylor and Rihanna winning this award. People, this award is given to the artist of the decade. Not the businesswoman of the decade. Taylor writes “ALL” her songs period. Her biggest focus is music. Not endorsements. Even Jennifer Lopez is a singer making hits but you don’t see her with this. And Taylor has done a lot of behind the curtains philanthropic work. These awards are given to people who deserve them. I’m not a Rihanna or Beyonce hater, but come on, she deserves what she deserves. Let’s all not be another puny Kanye in the comments. And btw, Kanye did not need to come in between Taylor, she was already grabbing home awards before he came along.

    3:08 Taylor:What anyone in this room wants is to create something that will last. Someone in the crowd:PERIODT!😂😂
  • @nixamia7218
    Mark my words, Taylor Swift will win at the grammys.
  • When she says award goes to taylor swift i literally get goosebumps
  • @Rose-bm1oq
    Can someone imagine she leave the music industry what bad loss for us
  • @mrslundy1535
    At her age of 30, she is the artist of decade. She's gonna be the artist of century one day.
  • @simrandas9027
    Taylor really shaped this decade... She's a powerhouse who didn't stop working hard even though there was harsh criticism.... Hate or love her, you have to admit she keeps on making music....
  • @lumbipatton4083
    She ain’t lying when she said I come back stronger than a 90’s trend
  • @kalynxmikazuki
    She didn't just come back stronger than the 90's trend, she never went out of style folks! 💛💛💛
  • So she won both artist of the year and artist of the decade in 2019?! Edit: after winning in 2019 Blondie literally went and made 4 albums in the same year (folklore evermore fearless tv red TV)
  • @cloudy3359
    She's presented Artist of the Decade award and half of her speech is thanking Carole King for how she has helped Taylor become the songwriter that she is today. This is why I love her so damn much. Her character is built from being a humble person who knows how to stand up for what's right as well as appreciating everything that helped her do so. Truly the Artist of the Decade. ♥️
