Pop superstar Taylor Swift is known for her frequent and extremely creative use of "Easter eggs," or hidden clues in song lyrics, music videos, tour visuals, and even social media captions that allude to what's next in her career. So, it may not come as a shock that several fresh Easter egg-like hints have fans totally convinced that she has something up her sleeve.


Scroll to see why fans think Taylor Swift is finally releasing the Reputation (Taylor's Verson) vault tracks.

Is Taylor Swift releasing Reputation (Taylor's Version)?

When Taylor Swift announced she'd finally bought back all her music after 5 years of trying to reclaim her masters, she also admitted she never finished recording Reputation (Taylor's Version) — and that it was the one album that she didn't think could be improved upon.

"The Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it," she said in an open letter to fans. "All that defiance, that longing to be understood while feeling purposely misunderstood, that desperate hope, that shame-born snarl and mischief."

"There will be a time (if you're into the idea) for the unreleased Vault tracks from that album to hatch," she continues. "I've already completely re-recorded my debut album, and I really love how it sounds now. Those 2 albums can still have their moments to re-emerge when the time is right, if that would be something you guys would be excited about. But if it happens, it won't be from a place of sadness and longing for what I wish I could have. It will just be a celebration now."

When Taylor Nation started making "Welcome Home" posts for all of Taylor Swift's original albums, fans quickly pointed out that each post featured a lot of black in the photo — and that it appeared to be a countdown as each post encouraged fans to join the official listening party on the hour every day Taylor Swift at 1 PM EST, Fearless at 2 PM EST, Speak Now at 3 PM EST, etc.

Well, the rumored countdown leads right to a Reputation listening party on July 23 at 6 PM EST, and fans are convinced that listening party will include Reputation Vault tracks.

"THE VAULT PLEASSSSSSSE 🐍 BEST ALBUM AND ERA OF THE CENTURY," one user commented on the Instagram post, while another said, "the black tints in all these outfits are giving me Vault track vibes!"

We'll have to wait until 6 PM to find out if we're getting Vault tracks, a new merch drop, or if we're all just singing along to "Delicate" for the fun of it. It's a win-win-win if you ask me.
