KatyPrismSpirit Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Inspired by this YouTube series I came across. It's called Trainwreckords by Todd In The Shadows. Although I don't agree Witness was a career ending album, it definitely held a longlasting negative impact on Katy's career. Are there any other instances of albums that did more damage than good on an artists career or overall image of an artist? You can write them down here. Edited October 9, 2022 by KatyPrismSpirit
KatyPrismSpirit Posted October 9, 2022 Author Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) The fact a LM made this video for sure btw also recommend this video. ITs a deep dive on how horrible the witness era went. Edited October 9, 2022 by KatyPrismSpirit
Erreur2 La Nature Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 We haven't really heard of her after Bionic and she has not been able to chart for like 12-13 years now
Mr. Stratus Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) The saddest thing was the fans she did have all left when the charts did, with little talent to pick it back up. Rihanna gained a lot of fans in 2018 Katy and Xtina has so much in common with bionic/witness Edited October 9, 2022 by Mr. Stratus

It's the risk of a radical change in image and sound. Radical change can really either be highly successful or a massive failure. there is really no in between. The thing with Bionic was that Christina felt hounded by competition to venture into EDM, didnt want to be left behind. If only she made that shift more organic it could've been a little more succesful. Her career would have really looked extremely different if it wasnt for this LP

Kimi Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 Hard Candy? I know not comparable to Witness or Bionic same but ever since she dropped that her reputation acclaim and success went down tremendously.
Kavish Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 I like it, but Solar Power ruined Lorde's acclaim streak among fans and critics alike. She needs to return to form on her next album.

And Give it 2 Me was a moderate european hit. MDNA was the album that made her look like a joke and nobody considered her seriously ever since 2012.

This felt like the first of many missteps for Madonna, even if 4 Minutes was a hit.

Those critiques on modern culture and America was really something that made the public ignore her more. A shift from her usual pop and dance music. Madonna was the epitome of the cultural zeitgeist for 20 years from 1983 - 2003 but ever since American Life, something kinda shifted in how the public perceived her. Yes of course Hung Up was a massive hit and she did the Superbowl and kept making records etc but her reign at the top and being the most centered female artist cut short since American Life. Even tho its one of her best albums.
