His answer is exactly what you'd expect.

Amidst the festivities of Travis Kelce's second annual "Kelce Jam," the football player gushed about his girlfriend Taylor Swift and even proceeded to reveal his favorite Taylor Swift Era. The music festival is located in Kansas City and attracts upwards of 20,000 guests. The festival, in a way, is a huge party Kelce throws for Kansas City, and due to the football player's influence, many musicians who wouldn't otherwise visit the midwestern metropolis perform at Kelce Jam. 

"Oh, I'm a big 1989 era [fan]," Kelce told Access Hollywood. "But I'm not gonna lie; I might be a little biased toward The Tortured Poets Department, just a little bit."

And why wouldn't he be? After all, many of the tracks featured in The Tortured Poets Department are reportedly about the NFL star. 

Many speculate that "So High School" and "The Alchemy" are about Kelce, which may be why the football player admits to favoring his girlfriend's latest album. 

"I might be a little biased to 'So High School,'" Kelce said. 

The lyrics in "The Alchemy," make several blatant references to football and Kelce's SuperBowl win, with the track's lyrics reading, "Shirts off, and your friends lift you up over their heads / Beer sticking to the floor / Cheers chanted, cause they said / There was no chance, trying to be / The greatest in the league." This is then followed by "Where's the trophy? / He just comes running over to me," which may refer to Kelce and Swift's romantic embrace caught on camera after the Superbowl. 

Kelce also told Access Hollywood that if he had to choose one track for Swift to perform at Kelce Jam, he'd pick "So High School." 

'"So High School" might be the only one that's just jumping into my mind right now," said Kelce. "I think everybody would get fired up for that one."

This year, performers like Lil Wayne, Diplo, and 2 Chainz to the stage at Kelce Jam. When asked about the initiative, Kelce explained his ardent love for music.

"I can't tell you how many CDs I used to burn as a kid. I've just always been a music lover, all different genres," said Kelce. "Sure enough you'll see it tonight."
