And none in Asia, for good reason.

Not bad for a flop 

[lover.]

Olivia’s debut album being the standard. 

 

Good for Billie, I enjoyed the album. 

[Patient Zero]

Oxytocin and the second part of HTE did that

[Post Malone]

Cute debuts, hopefully we get similar updates on the 2nd week and onward

 

[Billionaire]

Folklore and HTE, acclaimed albums with success Oxytocin, HTE, IDCMN and Billie Bossa Nova did that.

And it’s stupid. It’s like trying to bash Taylor for “only” debuting with 500k copies. It’s stop not a flop so move tf on

It's not stupid at all when she had the biggest album of 2019.  It's going to be real frontloaded if they don't get it together. 

Comparing her to Taylor is brave when Taylor has incredible longevity.

No one compared her to Taylor. Do you know what an analogy is? 
 

It’s the logic I’m comparing. Debuting at #1 with 240k sales is not a flop. And she took 2 years to release her follow up + had a horrible role out + multiple scandals. It’s way too early to call it an underperformance when she’s known for her longevity. This album may very well not have 10 weeks at #1 but can still scan 2-3x plat at the end of the day. 

[hungrymuffin]

didnt know folklore had the 2nd most no1s in 2020sit did it without physicals first week

 

OBHs want her to flop but she even debuted at no1 in germany and france which are difficult to do

analogy - a comparison between two things, typically for the purpose of explanation or clarification.    

 

I'm wondering if you know        The logic and person work hand in hand - you're expecting Billie to have a rebound like Taylor which most likely won't be the case. Anyways, congrats to Miss Eyelash. We'll be keeping an eye out for her chart run. Outperforming Sour as well
