I don't think anyone stated or thinks that sales equal talent. Personally, I don't.

None of us actually ever stated this. They think its what we care about but our faves are BLESSED enough to be TALENTED and SUCCESSFUL as well as BEING SOMETHING to the public for all these years.
If you dont have stans you dont have a career.
Ask Hip Hop Gaf the living EXAMPLES

A$AP Rocky is pretty. Xtina is pretty bad. 1 Gaf Hop 0 Pop Gaf.

The ones being covered on NATIONAL TELEVISION, websites, blogs and magazines on a daily basis. Almost every award show or event they ATTEND. The ones who wear MARCHESA and Vivienne Westwood without flaws

I'll give you a minute to figure out who that is

Wasn't Pharrell voted man of the decade by GQ?

Have a seat.

Hmm, so we have old-lady marchesa vs rick owens/margiela and the guy who was on Nigo's nuts so hard he had to start billionaire boys club.

I am undecided.

And don't bring lady gaga or Thierry Mugler into this.
 
If only POP GAF followed Mariah's sonning and realized that we're the wrong genre to come at with Disses. You should have known that passive aggressiveness always loses to a combination of bon mots, god flow, argumentative virtue, and diddy adlibbing in the back.

You can't win them all, friends. You can't just always drown people in gifs and language few understand. We know. We CREATED much of stanguage. You have been allowed to inherit our originality, our words that the mainstream steals and corrupts, our dress, everything. For that is the nature of your genre. To take everything that is original and good, and to bastardise it and essentially fuck it into a hole until nobody wants to hear it anymore. You should have known that you would inherit the L.

Like Nasir the gawd, you lost. And you might lose for some time more as you realize the hollow, stale satisfaction you get from billboard charts in an era where nobody gives a fuck about buying music and people would literally rather play their own music through a cord in the car and at parties than listen to what your genre has to offer. But like Nas, maybe it'll get better for you.

Arguments aside, let it be known that I love you GAFPOP. I love your style, your unwillingness to be fucked with, your strange sense of humor. Y'all are great, even if you pick the wrong fights. Bless your souls, for the based god showers you with this swaggeur. May a hundred Ryan Goslings be on your dicks (pause)

Bless you all, in this hard time for the record companies and industries that manufacture and churn your music out like sweatshop santa's elves every year QE4.

Thats Pop Gaf's biggest flaw. Someone brings them something new, their first reaction is "how much did it sell". It is quite sad really.

Um... wrong. How many records has MIA sold, or Jesse Ware, or Ellie Goulding, or recently Britney Spears? Reading our thread you'd thing thoes heaux records were flying off the shelves. Slaydele has outsold all our faves and she barely gets any press. You'll see some ppl stanning Slaylor Swift, but them heaux are... different. lol.

But what sells is music for white teenage girls. Even Gaf Hop knows this and understands who buys their fave's records. Guess you cant handle it.

Unless you mean you check for Garfunkel and George Michael. I highly doubt that though.

Just because currently Taylor's RED album will outsell the whole Hip-Hop genre for the year doesn't mean there arent other genres that sell.

Oh we gonna bring up Miss tear drops on my guitar? Now what was it that DJ was just saying how yall dont base shit on sales???? LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Pop Gaf is built on asking for the "receipts". Dont lie honey, it makes you look bad.

Just cause someone asks for receipts doesn't mean all we care about is sales. Of course it's a topic, as it is in any genre. Whether it's TV or Music or Movies or whatever, you compare and rate things. That being said, again, we all enjoy pop stars who don't sell gazillions of units. Lots of people don't even like Taylor Swift in the thread, and she's selling the most units recently.

You can stop now.

Pop gaf always brings it up, first before anything. But you can stop lying outright anytime now. Ill be waiting...probably for awhile.

Nigo's time is done (Human Made is trash) but his international relevance is due to Pharrell, no question. Plus BBC and Ice Cream hardly take any cues from Bathing Ape.

What does it matter if it's brought up first or last? All that matters is that you said that we care more about sales than talent, and that's wrong. We care about talent more than sales, but discussing sales doesn't mean we only care about them. Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
 
If all the albums of the people you guys stanned for didn't go Triple Dust bunny, then maybe sales would be a viable subject to discuss.

You're wrong, though. Complete wrong. Laughably wrong.

The DARLING of OT2 was none other than Jessie Ware (who we introduced you guys to, you're welcome), and her sales aren't anything to write home about.

Neither are Florence + The Machine's or Lana Del Rey's, and they are two of the most lauded acts amongst PopGAF.

Yes, sales come up (and often when we're throwing shade at each other), but one could argue that it would be weirder if we didn't discuss sales.
 
Guess how many shits Gaf Hop gives about sales. Here are the sale numbers from the top two of last years AOTY thread

#1. Big KRIT-Return of 4Eva: 0 sales
#2. Cunninlynguists-Oneirology: 1,197 first week.

We stay not giving a fuck about sales. Im out. Peace and much love to our brothers and sisters in Pop-Gaf. This was all in good fun.

Too bad you are wrong, because plenty of albums people like in Gaf-hop went platinum but there is rarely any mentioned of sales or people using sales to try to put someone down.
