Taylor Swift's 1989 "saved" the music industry last year, going full pop might not have been a big of risk in hindsight. But T-Swift still excellently executed the homage to her birth year, and took a cinematic approach when it came to the visuals for Bad Blood. Ice Cube took a big a risk leaving N.W.A. and on his third solo album The Predator, Cube found his biggest success with album sales, and single with It Was A Good Day.
