CaptainMusic Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 3 minutes ago, Inverted said: As for Weekender, I only mentioned him and Ariana because thays the only song I remember other than the Daft Funk song. Well that's just you, your specific comment was: Quote Is that what Weekender says when he sees people don't care when his songs don't feature Ariana? ...which was embarrassing. You made a dumb comment and I clocked you with facts proving that people care even more about his solo smashes than that one collab. Then you randomly bring up Paula Abdul who hasn't had a hit in nearly 30 years. Get some common sense before u quote me again. OT: Impressive! Great to see Asian artists smashing even if their fans are unbearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to see Asian artists smashing even if their fans are unbearable. I brought up Paula Abdul because it's relevant analogy. You tried to contradict what I originally pointing to his other hits and I brought up an example of another singer who had even more hits in that same span of time (5 years) that people always undermine. The hits he's achieved are even smaller than Paula's so what's the difference? His impact is the same. He's drying up slowly just like Paula except she must wait and disappeared. And yes, I was obviously exaggerating when I said that only his hit with Adriana was known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just lol if you think they'll have any longevity outside Korea but enjoy it while it lasts. And there you have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paula Abdul ruled the charts for 5 years and then just quit and disappeared. BTS has passed the 5 year point and is growing and bigger. What a ridiculous comparison. Moreover, the other user pointed out that they'd still have success in their country. That's plenty of sales, which your fave Lana Del Rai strughles to get. FYI why undermine Paula? She was much bigger and had more impact than the likes of Lana De Rai. Even Taylor is declining. Look What You Did was an irrelevant song that only peaked so high because of her name.

DoubleRainbow! Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 21 hours ago, Inverted said: Despacito was a one off with a Spanglish version featuring a big name North American artist. Not to mention there are 50 million Soanish speakers in the US and most Spanish language still don't make mainstream hits. Try again. There are like 7 Spanish hits on Spotify top 50 (the biggest music platform). There ain't no K-pop songs in there. and those BTS songs will free fall soon. Latin music is just bigger than K-pop will ever be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been at least 5 Spanish songs on Spotify Top 50 since 2017.

K-pop is yet to have a Despacito, Mi Gente, X, Chantaje, Sin Pijama, Dura, etc. I never said that K-pop is bigger than Latin American music. I contradicted your lies that there are more Spanish-language songs than Korean songs currently in the Top 50. That's false. There are zero Spanish songs currently and eight Korean songs. You also claimed that those BTS songs will free fall, but BlackPink's single has been been in the Top 50 for almost 2 weeks now. BTS' with Halsey will likely stay there for a while also. Moreover, Spanish-language music had their big crossover moment starting all the way back in the 90s starting with Macarena and Ricky Martin so it's not surprising Latin American artists have the advantage, especially with 50+ million Spanish speakers in the US (and 420 million globally). K-pop didn't start crossing over until the 2010s so the fact that there are 8 Korean songs in the Top 50 even though there are very few Korean speakers in the world and Spotify isn't used there is really impressive. They're making global impact with non-Korean support. The vast majority of the people listening to reggaeton/trap in Spanish are actual Spanish-speakers.

Again, how can Korean songs compete with Spanish-language songs with number of Spanish speakers in the world? There's literally a continent named South America, plus other countries like Mexico, Spain and the Latin Caribbean countries. Spotify isn't even used in either of the Koreas.
