The text incident between Taylor and Phoebe

Taylor said I connected with Phoebe by sending her a song called ‘Nothing New,’ which I wrote at the age of 22. This song holds immense significance for me as it marked a departure from being a shiny new artist. I reached out to Phoebe, expressing that it would mean the world to me if she could join me in a duet. I was keen on having another female artist whom I admire sing it with me, as the song encapsulates a distinctly female perspective on our shared experiences. Phoebe’s response was, ‘I’ve been waiting for this text my entire life.’ It was a resounding ‘Yes!’ and a moment of sheer joy.”

She revealed that she was moved to tears during the recording and is eagerly looking forward to the day when people can appreciate the song for its genuine value upon its release.
