RihFenty20 Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 (edited) To my fellow Navy, I’m so sorry. This is my fault. I’m still not going to let up on Taylor since she’s talentless but sorry regardless. But the tour was a success, Rihanna isn’t like the 9th grossing woman in music touring this century for no reason. Not everyone is going to hit every metric. And she more than makes up for it in every other area. Edited June 6, 2022 by RihFenty20

Devin Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 Swifties wanna drag Rihanna’s stadium dates yet Taylor’s stadium shows prob have many open seats if she toured Africa and Latin America pfff.
Popboi. Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 Should’ve been a full on arena tour except France, that’s it.

Both Sides Now Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 7 minutes ago, Isaiah said: This. Plus it’s super evident Taylor cares a LOT about the fan’s experience at her tours, whereas Rihanna spent a decade making it evident she couldn’t care less just to play into this “bad gyal” persona. Yeah. I actually got free tickets to the Reputation tour and it made me a fan. I was blown away by how much care/effort was put into the show. One of the best concerts I had been to and I hadn’t even listened to reputation at that point. What Taylor lacks in singing and dancing she pours into other aspects of a live show. When I think of Rihanna live I think of shaky vocals while walking around the stage. She just doesn’t have the reputation as a good performer. Plenty of other artists just don’t have good touring reputations (my own fave included). If I were offered free tickets to a Rih show, I would probably turn them down. Doesn’t mean she doesn’t stomp commercially in other aspects.
loudliyah Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 This thread is reminding me of 2011-2015 stanwars on here and I'm living for it

Again do you people have no ounce of self-awareness The whole Taylor masters ordeal is much more fresh than the Wembley tour date flopping

She doesn’t need to be able to dance incredibly well or sing amazingly. Her talent speaks for itself.

Queenyoncee Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 The mess in here OT: The tour wasn't as bad as people try to make it out to be
lonnie Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 2 minutes ago, Nexto said: Those masters won't hold much value compared to the re-recordings when all is said and done, which was her plan all along so they can be tossed around for all she cares. You thought. Each time someone streams those original masters re-recordings (which happens a lot as we've learned from the constant Taylor streaming stats threads) then whoever gets to hold the ball while it's tossed to the next person gets PAID off of them. Taylor re-recording her entire discography won't ever change that I fear. So I did indeed think

Isaiah Posted June 6, 2022 Author Posted June 6, 2022 6 minutes ago, lonnie said: A Rihanna fan defending their fave in an anti-Rihanna thread (made by a swiftie), shocker. OT: None of the Taylor stans have managed to explain how Taylor grosses as much as she does despite being the worst singer and dancer out of the major pop stars Immense care for her craft, unprecedented audience-engagement, and the drive to be the best musician she can. Rihanna and Taylor are in the same boat when it comes to their vocal and dancing abilities, but Taylor has the drive and discipline to push those limited skills to their absolute limit and put on the best show possible for her fans. Rihanna on the other hand, gives the bare-minimum with the little skill she has, all while consistently being hours late to her shows, doesn’t engage the audience, and pretty much just shows face for a couple hours to “get it over with”. Also, it definitely helps Taylor that she and her fans actually have a personal connection with the music, since she wrote/crafted/conceptualized all of it herself, and isn’t just singing a medley of writing-camp hit singles. There. Are you happy with that answer?
OrgVisual Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 She doesn't have a big fanbase She is infamous for being late, hitting fans or cancelling shows
305 Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 She's probably the worst performer out of all the pop girls, even lower than Ariana.
Kevin Parker Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 It was just bad. I remember liking the Diamonds Tour and hoping she'd come to my country. Then with the Anti Tour I didn't care. Also, why did they decide to do stadiums? The demand wasn't that big.
