"No Scrubs" writers Kandi Burruss and Tiny Harris are now credited for Ed Sheeran's song.

Taylor Swift has reportedly returned home.

A unidentified source tells Entertainment Tonight that she is back in Nashville, where she found her footing as a country-pop songwriter, to write her follow-up to 1989. Moreover, Taylor is still trying to figure out this new album’s sound — “whether or not she wants to continue in the pop genre,” as ET reports, or “return to her beloved country roots.”

1989, released in 2014, was what Taylor called her first proper pop album — even though Red already saw her in similar territory. At the time, 1989 convinced many critics that the great fanfare was justified. But her pop theatrics (“Please welcome to the stage …”) had also worn thin by the time her 1989 World Tour wrapped in 2015.

ET‘s source also says that Taylor’s new album will be out at the end of this year, echoing what bestie Ed Sheeran has said before.
