Don't you literally stan for Morgan Wallen

Not really. I like his latest album a lot, but he does nothing else for me.

 

And for what it’s worth I don’t actually care about Summer Walker’s opinions (or any artists’). The celebrations in here prove to me though that people aren’t acting in good faith when they criticize problematic behaviour. They cling to issues of artists they already dislike and turn a blind eye whenever it’s not convenient. It’s performative and transparent.

I see it as well. 

They think they are fooling people.

 

Kudos to Summer though

basically my point is i've been called a racist for celebrating dangerous' chart run. that's fine, free speech or whatever. I just want the same treatment for Summer Walker supporters (I just googled it and apparently she's not only anti-vaxx but also a racist and malnourishes her baby?) as well as fans of lana (who i do stan), travis scott, nicki, amy, etc...

OMG these numbers are amazing...I'm so happy for her

 

She absolutely deserves this especially after the ridiculous situation with Over It where it was the real deserving #1 over that fraud sales album...so get that #1 QUEEN 

 

She delivered AOTY and seeing all this immediate success is lovely.  Glad I am part of the streaming and the sales for this wonderful album!

Which ''fraud sales'' album blocked Over It from debuting at #1 ? I'm curious lol...

Summer STOMPING. Come on unvaccinated kween

Who bought the ABBA album?

 

Happy for Summer, I need all the R&B girls to pull through like Summer and SZA, the gays have been without our mainstream R&B girls for too long

[MrDog]

The US isn't their main market, but they still have a fanbase, the Mamma Mia movie did well and it's their first album in 40 years. What's so surprising about their numbers?

[brainmaniac]

Wasn’t Summer cancelled a few times for being racist to Asians and anti vax among other things

 

Guess that shows that cancel culture doesn’t exist if she can still pull big numbers despite all that

It never existed because "cancel culture" for being racist, sexist, homophobic can't be a thing in a society where all of these forms of bigotry are literally systemic and built into and normalized in nearly every institution, but you're focused on a black woman making niche r&b music while racist white men are about to give one of their own the #1 album of 2021 for using racial slurs.

The way Summer refuses to promote traditionally and still slays like this

Whats funny is users are using the same small minded approach they accuse you and others of in the process proving other points...

Weekly there's a meltdown about Morgan. He has the #1 album of the year. Deal with it. 

 

There’ll never be the same treatment as people in general cherry pick outrage which is why it shouldn't be taken seriously.

 

But good for summer getting a hit album without a hit leading up to the release.

True. I think it's cherry picked. She's not the first problematic artist to get a pass.

The stereotype (the first ones pointing the finger)...you don't know the demographic of Morgan stans and from the beginning of time racists have supported different types of artists especially knowing who got top dollar as true owners of content behind the scenes so that take is quite fuzzy.

 

Pivoting and deflecting to Morgan isn't going to change how problematic the “niche r&b” artist is but it's good both will have #1 albums surpassing expectations which proves you can be problematic on both sides and still succeed if the music is good...its just who gets targeted consistently is cherry picked. No same energy

Wait I didn't know this.  

All these people dragging Carrie Underwood just for liking a tweet better show the same energy to Summer then

canceling things existed as a joke in the black community until guess who showed up
