I’m flattered by how much I apparently occupy your mind rent free. so apparently you agree that Gaga is more beyonce’s peer than someone like Taylor or Billie.

If anything more people would be at home streaming. i dont really use the pandemic as a defense but its weird how confidently you spat that out being so wrong Quote In more than two-thirds of the countries studied that enforced lockdowns, music streaming volume declined significantly after the lockdowns took effect. On average, audio music consumption decreased 12.5 percent after the World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic declaration on March 11, 2020. https://www.cmu.edu/news/stories/archives/2021/july/music-streaming-down-during-pandemic.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happier Than Ever opened just above Renaissance’s numbers and the week 2 numbers are just below Renaissance’s projected numbers. I only made the thread because I saw others wanting to draw comparisons with this and Chromatica . I do agree with you that Billie seems like closer to Bey’s orbit than Gaga though.

Is there a new chart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious why the hive even sees it necessary to engage. Beyoncé is an institution that has consistently churned out quality and successful music for 25 years. Lady Gaga is a fad that has not been making waves in the music industry aside from soundtrack work since 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of how the percentage decrease represents pandemica's streams and ren's - the statement "People would be streaming more during lockdown" is still incorrect. Make sense now, Armani?
