Buddy Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) Congratulations, not surprising though. BTS is probably the most payola'd music group I've ever seen Exo is serving just as much without the payola. 2 hours ago, levi_valvi said: writing "payola" was your joke? gurl you need better material OT: oh wow, i can't stand them but seeing the anti-kpoppers fume warms my heart so i'm not too mad Was Lady Bird really joking though? I mean she didn't lie, she provided facts. I fail to see how that can be considered a joke. Edited April 12, 2019 by Buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This particular album costs about 14 dollars USD if you bought it in Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you’re confused with how Korean digital retailers sold single downloads for extremely cheap, but they’ve raised prices since then. BTS’s album isn’t cheaper in Korea, maybe shipping costs aside. 3 minutes ago, Buddy said: Congratulations, not surprising though.

I fail to see how that can be considered a joke. I don’t understand. You think BTS are paying millions of people to buy their new album? How does payola come into play into album sales? A bunch of impressionable girls mass streaming a video to break some record isn’t payola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry but they literally have 0 talent I don’t see the appeal They can literally sing, dance, rap, write and produce sorry if you don't like their music though - I really don't understand the "payola" comments lol.

Extinctkid Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 BTS just has a much bigger and way better oraginised fandom plus GP interest. Why is it so hard for some of y'all to accept that fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Exo has terrible music it was only a matter of time their group declined. You think fans buying albums is payola now?

They've been around for like 6 years and they just keep getting bigger. It's really impressive. I don't get the hype, but the new album isn't bad so good for them.
