The 50 Best Max Martin Songs

The Swedish studio genius has been behind classic hits by pop’s biggest stars — from Taylor Swift to Britney Spears to Lady Gaga and more. Here are his finest moments

Max Martin is one of Taylor Swift’s favorite collaborators—as on her new blockbuster The Life of a Showgirl, where he and Shellback co-produced and co-wrote the whole album. Martin, the legendary Swedish studio genius behind so many pop classics from the past 30 years, has always been a mystery man, remaining behind the scenes. Yet he’s produced 24 Number One hits — breaking the record set by Beatles studio wizard George Martin (no relation). He’s served up hits for the biggest names in pop, with an unbroken hot streak ever since he blew up in the Nineties with Britney Spears, NSync, and the Backstreet Boys. He’s kept cranking out hits right up to the 2020s with Ariana Grande and the Weeknd. And he’s got more on the way with Taylor. So now is the perfect time to celebrate his massive historic legacy, with our tribute to his 50 greatest songs. Nobody’s had a bigger impact on how pop music sounds in this century — and Max Martin wants it that way.
