The Music Lab session will focus on learning how to remix the song "You Need to Calm Down," from Swift's upcoming album "Lover." According to Swift, these sessions will only be available in select Apple stores.

Similar to previous Music Labs, customers will be able to find out what inspired Swift to write the song, leading to the creation of their own version.

Apple in the past has partnered with Madonna and Billie Eilish on Music Lab sessions, which are available worldwide. Apple hasn't uploaded any official information on the sessions yet, but when it does the information should be available on Apple.com/today.

Made-up Apple Fact: 'Taylor Swift' is the most complex code yet written in Apple's language for developers, surpassing even the lesser-known R'n'B artist Geraldine Objective-C.

It would be funny to see Taylor in an Apple Store teaching random strangers with no background how to use Garage Band :-P

After the royalty kerfuffle, first the exclusive release and now this. Looks like they’re really buddies again.
I don't think they were ever not buddies. I think the royalty kerfuffle was basically one friend telling another friend, "Bruh, you know that $%#& ain't right. You can't just use other people's stuff and not pay 'em." Only a good friend (read: one with major clout) could get away with telling their friend to do the right thing without suffering repercussions.

... Well how interesting and wonderful.

For a moment I almost (almost) believed that Taylor Swift was an educated artist; an inspiring musician whom I could query about the benefits of compression, auto tune and relationship mishaps.
great singer and songwriter

her music is just as compressed and her voice much less auto tuned then most of what’s on top 40 radio these days

i’d love to here some of your music
