“It’s a 2am surprise: The Tortured Poets Department is a secret DOUBLE album,” Taylor shared on social media. “I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of TTPD: The Anthology. 15 extra songs. And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it’s all yours.”
