Spotify Crashes Following Taylor Swift Music Album Release

Popular streaming service, Spotify reportedly had a server crash following the release of Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated new album, “Midnights,” on Thursday, October 20.

Taylor Swift’s tenth album was launched right at the stroke of midnight, which happens to be the exact moment that Spotify crashed.

Spotify experienced a significant outage worldwide at midnight ET, which coincided with the release of Taylor Swift’s album, according to Downdetector.com.

Fans of the singer were confused, but the problem was eventually rectified by Spotify’s team.

Taylor released a special edition of the album with seven more songs for her “Swifties” that was available on Spotify three hours later.

The singer said this week that she has created a series of “music movies” for it that would include model Dita Von Teese, Laura Dern, the Haim sisters, and makeup artist Pat McGrath.
