Perfect Crime Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Your Power a massive grower.

Perfect Crime Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) On 4/29/2022 at 1:09 AM, Jenni said: Yeah, if you read the interview that she and her managers did for billboard recently, you'll know they do give her full control over her work, which is a good thing tbh. The problem is that she doesn't seem to know what is the purpose of a single, so she keeps making bad choices. She knows she's an album artist, so I really don't know why she thinks releasing a bunch of singles before the album is a good idea. Maybe she does that because she's a visual artist and wants to make as many videos as possible, but idk, like, I know she doesn't care about charts but you can be an alternative artist and still make good singles choices. !! She really should have just released HTE in full, with TIA being the only pre-release single. The title track would have blown UP with a top 5 debut & wouldn't have floundered on radio Billie could easily be the type of artist who gets a ton of GP respect, critical acclaim and hype for her full albums w/o the need for hit pop singles. She should just skip the singles & pop girl era tactics next time and focus on building hype for her albums. 21 hours ago, Billionaire said: She did admit in an interview that she has no idea what the GP would like nnn I truly don't think she or Interscope cares about a quick lil hit as long as she's still making bank with pure sales & touring. Even if the GP rejects her she still has a pretty loyal base. I think by the end of it all she'll probably be a slightly bigger Lana which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Not the Lana comparison She's wayyy bigger than her but yeah ia 16 hours ago, BloodLuster said: guess I’m the only one who liked the selection of singles; she presented an artistic project instead of a commercially driven era She picked great songs but the issue is the way they were managed - Interscope treated them as full pop singles which hurt her commercially & killed a lot of her hype/buzz. The fact that she sent a 4 minute jazz ballad to pop radio also the Lost Cause video is forever a branding disaster Edited April 30, 2022 by Perfect Crime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a surprise release would've been more ideal. Edited April 30, 2022 by Billionaire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

storminthedark Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 so no met gala appearance her look was gorgeous last year but I'm not sure how she would've executed the theme this year so maybe it's a good thing she's not going people do entirely too much on her most of the time when she's arguably the only big artist of her generation that's actually an artist in the way older pop girls were. she produces bodies of work and inspired another generation of singers. there's a reason there are tons of billie clones nowadays. people downplay her cultural impact because they either don't like her/want to see her fail or want to uplift other girls instead. they can't deny her longevity and impact though, time is the ultimate truth teller!
