Rundgren Dismisses Swift as 'Mediocrity' Amidst Record-Breaking 'Encore' Release

Veteran producer Todd Rundgren has publicly criticized Taylor Swift, labeling her the 'apotheosis of mediocrity' and claiming she 'ruined music.' In an interview with Vulture, Rundgren argued that the industry's pivot to targeting female audiences in the 1990s, following a shift in male spending toward video games, led to Swift's dominance. He dismissed her vocal and songwriting abilities while praising Lady Gaga. These comments follow the release of Swift's expanded album, 'The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore,' which broke streaming records. Swift has not responded to the criticism, though she previously addressed mixed reviews of her 2025 album by respecting subjective opinions.
