Taylor Swift sent her fans into an emotional frenzy as she officially dropped her anticipated 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department - with Swifties already labeling the LP 'a masterpiece.' 

The Grammy winner, 34, also announced on Thursday that the first single from the new work is Fortnight, which features fellow music artist Post Malone. 

The album became available at 9p.m. (PST) and her dedicated fans have voiced their thoughts over the music, with some being driven to tears and others calling Tortured Poets the singer's 'best album.' 

One typed, 'IM CRYING RN. TAYLOR WE LOVE YOU!!!!' while another added, 'This is going to be the best album Taylor has made I know it.' 

'13 seconds in and its already the best album,' a follower penned, and one excitedly wrote, 'OMG Taylor this is a masterpiece!! Thank you for this amazing album!! Love you.' 

One fan on X added, 'Me as soon as each track begins,' and shared a one-second time marker as well as a GIF of Michael Jackson saying, 'I love this song!'

'I love it so much already,' a Swiftie typed, while another penned, 'THIS IS THE BEST ALBUM YOU'VE EVER MADE.' 

'10 seconds into The Tortured Poets Department,' one typed while adding a GIF of Max (Sadie Sink) from Stranger Things floating up into the air. 

Another social media user gushed, 'You literally have a way with words that no one else has, it's SO breathtaking. THANK you for all that you do, once again. now if you'll excuse me, I got an album to stream all day.' 

One also commented on Taylor's single Fortnight with Post Malone while expressing their thrill over the album. 

'Fortnight is so so soooooo good you and @PostMalone together #TSTTPD I can't believe I went this long without you two on a track together! I'm so excited to delve into this album!' 

Other fans offered their reactions to some of the other tracks, with Swifties theorizing the album is geared more towards ex, Matty Healy, rather than Joe Alwyn. Swift briefly dated the 1975 frontman last year following her split from the British actor.

'the realization that this album is more about matty healy than joe alwyn,' one penned, while another added, 'Joe Alwyn breathing a sigh of relief tonight #TTPD.' 

'She so real for this. This album is so good and the same unique,' a social media user wrote. 

Another pointed out, 'It's crazy but her saying that they think Charlie Puth should be bigger just confirms for me that the song is 100% Matty. That is exactly something Matty Healy would say,' referencing to the track The Tortured Poets Department.

'joe alwyn to matty healy tonight,' a fan penned, along with a GIF of, 'Call the ambulance! But not for me!'

One added, 'joe alwyn you will begin to cough in two minutes,' and shared the lyrics, 'And I'm p***ed off you let me give you all that youth for free.' 

Listeners commented on other lyrics, such as in the track titled, loml, where she sings, 'And I'll still see it until I die/You're the loss of my life.' 

Fans also mentioned Swift dropping names in the lyrics to Tortured Poets Department, with some theorizing she was referencing to pals Jack Antonoff and Lucy Dacus. 

'THE LUCY DACUS AND JACK ANTONOFF NAMEDROPS??!?' one wrote, and included the lyrics: 'But you told Lucy you'd kill yourself if I ever leave/And I had said that to Jack about you so I felt seen.'

Another shared the lyrics, 'You swore that you loved me but where were the clues? I died in the altar waiting for the proof.' 

One fan included the lyrics, 'At dinner you take my ring off my middle finger and put it on the one people put wedding rings on. And that's the closest I've come to my heart exploding.' The Swiftie then added, 'OH WHEN I CATCH HIM.' 

To celebrate the release, Taylor took to social media and shared a message to her fans and followers. 

'The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time - one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure.'
