Forget her “Reputation.” Taylor Swift has a whole new album coming out.

Accepting the Grammy for best pop vocal album, Taylor said she’d been keeping a secret for two years.

“My brand-new album comes out April 19. It’s called ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’ I’m going to go and post the cover right now backstage,” she announced.

And so she did.

On her Instagram, Swift posted a black-and-white image of her reclining across pillows.
