Jack Antonoff & More Defend Taylor Swift Against Damon Albarn's Accusations

The Internet has been reeling ever since Damon Albarn accused Taylor Swift of not writing her own songs.

Albarn criticized the “All Too Well” singer in a new interview with The Los Angeles Times while promoting his new album “The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows.” In the interview, he countered the statement that Swift was an “excellent songwriter.”

“That doesn’t count,” he said. “I know what co-writing is. Co-writing is very different to writing.”

“I’m not hating on anybody, I’m just saying there’s a big difference between a songwriter and a songwriter who co-writes,” he added. “Doesn’t mean that the outcome can’t be really great.”

Shortly after the interview went public, Taylor Swift retweeted the article with her own comments.

“@DamonAlbarn I was such a big fan of yours until I saw this,” she wrote. “I write ALL of my own songs. Your hot take is completely false and SO damaging. You don’t have to like my songs but it’s really f—ed up to try and discredit my writing. WOW.”

She followed it up by writing, “PS I wrote this tweet all by myself in case you were wondering.”

Actor Cameron McKendry commented, “Don’t worry queen. He’s mad cause majority of people are just now finding out who he is because you tweeted at him.”

The Perez Hilton personal account commented, “And for all you doubters, I remind you of this grand era! #SpeakNow! Taylor wrote EVERY SINGLE SONG by herself. No co-writers.”

“AMEN!” a fan replied. “She sure f—ing did! She is one of the very few artists I listen to that I know who write their own songs without any help or very little help with writing their own songs and music!”

Sarah Carsontweeted, “At this point Taylor Swift’s achievements are so highly respected in the music industry that I think you either have to be actively ignorant to claim you don’t know she writes her music OR - more likely - looking for attention and a reaction by publicly undermining her. V boring!”

Billy Lynn of “The Subways” tweeted, “Billy here. My mum is a punk rocker. She still badgers me about writing heavier songs, 'the punky stuff you used to write in your bedroom'. Absolutely adores our heaviest romps. She's 63 in four days, and SHE KNOWS TAYLOR SWIFT WRITES HER OWN SONGS. And she loves them. We all do.”

He followed it up with “Plays 22 UNBELIEVABLY LOUD.”

Singer Maisie Peters tweeted, “taylor swift could write song 2 but damon albarn could never write all too well 10 minute version.”

Author Steven Hyden tweeted, “Taylor Swift welcome to the Oasis Army.” He included an image of a headline that read “Liam Gallagher is a fan of Taylor Swift,” with a note saying that “Gallagher says that ‘Shake It Off’ is a ‘f—ing tune.’” Liam Gallagher was the frontman and lead singer of Oasis from 1991 to 2009.

Jack Antonoff, who was heavily involved with the making of Swift’s albums “folklore” and “evermore” also went off on Albarn on Twitter.

“i’ve never met damon albarn and he’s never been to my studio but apparently he knows more than the rest of us about all those songs taylor writes and brings in. herb,” he wrote.

He later added, “if you were there … cool … go off. If not … maybe … shut the f--- up?”

At the time of this writing, Damon Albarn has yet to issue an apology.
