According to Variety, at 3am ET on Friday morning, the Bad Blood singer surprised her fanbase and released a 20-track deluxe version of the album.
In an Instagram post, Taylor explained: “I think of Midnights as a complete concept album, with those 13 songs forming a full picture of the intensities of that mystifying mad hour.
“However! There were other songs we wrote on our journey to find that magic 13. I’m calling them 3am tracks.
She closed: “So it’s 3am, and I’m giving them to you now.”
THE COMMENTS
Unfortunately, Swifties slammed the pop singer online because they were upset about paying again for the Midnights (3am Edition) after buying the first Midnights album.
One angry Swifty tweeted: “What a completely s****y thing to do to your fans.
“Fans who stayed up to 12am to be the first to buy your album. Did you release another album a few hours later that has more tracks?
“Knowing full well that they will spend more money to get the new album. How do I get a refund?”

Another Swifty agreed and added: “All those poor people who bought like 16 copies of an incomplete version.”
Another Swifty mentioned: “She’s sick for this! For real!
A fourth person wrote: “What would have been an actually cool move and a nice surprise was for every order to have come with an unannounced bonus disc or download link for the 3am tracks.”
A commentator said: “No one else sees this ‘3am Edition’ as exploitive of her fans? Her loyal fans deserve better!”
MOCKING KIM?
The October 21st release date of the Midnights album also fell upon Kim Kardashian‘s 42nd birthday.
While fans suggested the pop singer attempted to steal the spotlight from Kim’s special day, they also claimed her new song, Vigilante S**t, took jabs at the reality star and her ex-husband, Kanye West, 44.
Her lyrics might have been about being “thick as thieves” with the ex-wife of a nemesis and reportedly giving the two “cold hard proof.”
THE LYRICS
The Blank Space hitmaker sang in her verses: “She needed a cold hard proof. So I give her some. She had the envelope. Where’d you think she got it from?
“Now she gets the house. Gets the kids, gets the pride. Picture me, thick as thieves with your ex-wife.
The lyrics ended with: “And she looks so pretty / Driving in your Benz.”
