sourprint Posted August 13, 2022 Posted August 13, 2022 ive been thinking about how hard this year's vmas will flop and or2 pop up on my mind i'm just so scared about everything, bc she's still in the gp's mind so she has everything to make a big era again, but we don't have a clue about what genres will contain on or2, concept, release date idk why im feeling like that, im usually optimistic i don't want it to follow hte's route (and to me billie's next album will underperform even more) i want a speak now/folklore moment

Luckitty Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 i'm surprised 1sf3sb is outstreaming enough for you is it because of that show? maybe it will eventually pass efy's total streams

drivers license Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 (edited) brutal's stats kinda bad considering a) it's an opener + b) it has a music video it's kinda weird because it's really being pushed and referenced a lot in pop culture (edit: ok to answer my own question, i guess it proves SOUR's relevance in pop culture. but the song is just not replay worthy i guess) favorite crime below the tracklist getting almost double with no promo chile i have to laugh Edited August 14, 2022 by drivers license

Luckitty Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 also an unpopular opinion but i love the brutal mv it's way better than the $5 budget traitor & drivers license videos i like the use of filters, it's a fun & interesting concept and it adds a lot of character to the video
BuzzCharts Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 The drivers license music video is iconic, it works perfectly for the song. It’s gonna stand the test of time as it looks like it’s not going to get passed by G4U MV in views. DL is also probably going to start passing G4U in daily streams within the next year. It’s still her trademark song All her ballads clearing her more produced songs is a kii. It will be interesting what she does with the lead for OR2. People like Olivia for her vocals and you can feel exactly what she is feeling through her delivery. Brutal tanked because she is just talking through most of the song and you don’t feel a thing. It just 2.5 minutes of gibberish. The MV tanked because those iPads mask were a crime to society.

drivers license Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 the way i'm avoiding that Anthony Fantano thread like a plague whenever it pops up i can just already tell the members + comments before going in, so there's really no point checking these haters. like, what's the truth? she's faceless or influencing the new gen? pick a side
