Sorry, but none of that really matters if people don't care about it. Album sales mean so little these days.

Your threshold for people "caring" is having a laundry list of sexual encounters that are sold off to tabloids for publicity, product tie-ins, internet feuds, white feminism, and a paid paparazzo on call to capture every staged carefree moment.

That's a necessity for people that lack attributes of talent. Others merely need to turn their microphones on and their music is single-handedly responsible for salvaging the industry's yearly finances.

There's a lot to be sorry for here, indeed.

I'm happy to stan Rihanna. A person that combines magnificent beauty with decent amount of talent!

 

[Vazduh]

I only sent shirtless pics to Touchdown though :/

*ahem*...

 

[Mau ®]

Oh right... I sent Roy a pic on twitter.

whew.

then no one cares for any non Adele or Taylor these days, being able to triple the next best selling album of the year means people do care a lot about her, also she broke every damn record with 25 and Hello

 

[Blood Diamonds]

That's nice and all but where is Lana's new music I'm tired of waiting

 

[Touchback]

*ahem*...

Yes and she's effortlessly stayed in the game for 11 years now.

Some girls (not naming names!) are already showing signs of collapse before their 10 year anniversary.

 

[Vazduh]

Oh right... I sent Roy a pic on twitter.

whew.

 

[torre_avenue]

I was listening to FKA twigs earlier and I need a new album. Stop doing campaigns with Nike and move your ass to the nearest studio, twigs. Pretty please, and thank you.

She's said her next album is likely coming 2018. Yay?

 

[Marshal]

Katy flopping HaHAHAHAHhahaha

 

[Touchback]

Katy flopping HaHAHAHAHhahaha

Well... she's fabulous for a throwback I guess.

 

[Floridian]

Damn, Katy is kinda over. Never mind my previous statement.

 

[MANUELF]

And you guys said Taylord didnt end her

 

[Marshal]

Well... she's fabulous for a throwback I guess.

Mariah, her revenge

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I think she'll still climb tbh. It's early days yet

I did my part, I bought it

 

[MANUELF]

I think she'll still climb tbh. It's early days yet

She is already getting red updates, unless the grammys make it more popular than any winner song I doubt it will reach number 1 on itunes

 

[Yado]

2018??...this better be worth the wait

 

[Matt_]

Taylor winning with a terrible movie song for an even worse movie?
Good lord

 

[cory64]

I'm having a moment with American Oxygen tonight

She knew.

 

[Mau ®]

Can't imagine a Katheryn performance making peopl excited to buy or stream a song but 2016/17 taught me to always be open to surprises.

 

[Marshal]

She is already getting red updates, unless the grammys make it more popular than any winner song I doubt it will reach number 1 on itunes

Beyoncé is also performing, Katy will be completely overshadowed

 

[Mau ®]

I'm having a moment with American Oxygen tonight

She knew.

Wow. An icon. Always ahead of the curve.

The way #R8 did WOKE and Country styled songs before others tried it. Ahh my fucking fave!!

 

[Yado]

I'm having a moment with American Oxygen tonight

She knew.

I forgot how awful this song was. Kanye would have ruined Anti.

 

[Touchback]

I'm having a moment with American Oxygen tonight

She knew.

wait....this could smash in today's political climate. Let me request this song to my top 40 radio station...

 

[Floridian]

I was a bit too harsh on American Dioxide tbh. It's not that bad now, and it's lowkey better than CTTR.

 

[Soulscribe]

Maybe she'll bring out Left Shark and chain it to the rhythm.

I'm sensitive to people calling anyone "over" for obvious reasons so I offer my wisdom (and counseling) to any Katy Perry success stan who needs some guidance through these uncertain times. 👀

EDIT: Oh and LMAO at anyone calling that song "political." The low bar

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Katy will bounce back. She has to 😭

 

[Blood Diamonds]

tbh I used to get my life to American Oxygen but always kept it a secret

Edit: also Rihanna did BBHMM wrong. That song slays.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I still don't like it.

I remember all the shady names y'all were calling it tho 🌝

 

[Professor Beef]

Katy will bounce back. She has to 😭

gifs and SNL have proved that she's good at bouncing

 

[Garrett Hawke]

were you paying attention? 👀

d

Pseudo-profound tripe fronting typical corporate pop trash. What a "political pop" icon. It's a political statement that's been sanitized for mass consumption to the point of being meaningless.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Considering Katy's audience is mostly 12 year olds it's a pretty good start.

 

[Marshal]

Fffff
The way this thread was STANNING for Chained to Dr Luke when it came out
Lmao

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I'm still here for it. #MusicNotTheBling

 

[Vazra]

The song is alright so Im not going to hate it or discard it for flopping.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

nnnnn Ellie Ghoulding stains pretending they know about good lyrics

 

[Professor Beef]

were you paying attention? 👀

oop 👀

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

I'm having a moment with American Oxygen tonight

She knew.

I don't understand how this wasn't huge. It's a damn good song, and has a huge, massive pop star attached to it.

tbh I used to get my life to American Oxygen but always kept it a secret

Edit: also Rihanna did BBHMM wrong. That song slays.

BBHMM is a classic forever.

It's the musical equivalent to Cecile Strong's drunk girl at a party character, honestly. A "wake up, sheeple" tea.

In other news, rumor has it that Lorde's next project is an uptempo dance album, so we'll probably get politically subversive dancepop for real soon.

 

[Floridian]

CTTR could flop and i'll still like it. Overall it's a 7/10 song and it's not as bad as Roar/Birthday so

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

yea it's just ok.

Definitely not a Dark Horse.

Bitch, don't you have a Lana Del Electra Complex song to listen to?

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Bitch, don't you have a Lana Del Electra Complex song to listen to?

Don't you have some Ellie Ghoulding Electronic Dan- oh wait that's right it's all garbage ddd

 

[Bladenic]

I only sent shirtless pics to Touchdown though :/

Of all the people...

 

[Touchback]

Of all the people...

 

[Vazra]

It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
No, it's not designed to make you feel love
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Oh no, yeah

American Sulphur is a horrendous song. We really are in the age of FAKE NEWS.
