"Because I think that palette I like."The bassist then praised Swift for her willingness to experiment with her music—going so far as to suggest an occasional "anti-pop" approach."I think she's, you know, I think she's not afraid to change and change in a way that maybe is kind of anti-pop in some ways, you know?" he continued. "Which is, I have huge props for that."
