Wow... this almost PATHOLOGICAL levels of delusion. You do realize Britney's last solo top 20 was Work B!tch in 2013, right? Britney Jean totally killed her career, which had been reinvigorated with Circus and FF. 

 

She's not toured ANY real stadium since. If you're talking about the "Singapore Indoor Stadium", you know it's actually an INDOOR ARENA, right?

 

What kind of delusion... I...

How did Britney Jean kill her career? It produced an ICONIC single for her that nobody HERE thought would take off. When you mention Britney, people automatically think to speak "Work *****!" or "It's Britney *****" (which the GP think are the same songs:rip:). She revived an entire city on her name alone (I live in Vegas I know this) and no Im not talking about the Singapore Indoor Stadium. A Stadium seats 40,000 and up, did Britney not have a crowds ranging from 40,000 to nearly 60,000 on her tour with no album out? She did.

pls she had 3 smash hits after artpop, won so many grammys, scored #1 songs and albums, had stadium tour and 2 big films with Joker probably being even bigger than ASIB

Katy fans have genuinely deluded themselves into believing Katy is outstreaming Gaga despite the fact she’s 1.7m streams away daily. I wouldn’t pay much notice, especially since Gaga’s side project jazz album released after ARTPOP outsold Katy’s 3 collab pop album that came after Prism :toofunny2:

Femme fatale and prism as they preceded what was to come.

We haven't really heard of her after Bionic and she has not been able to chart for like 12-13 years now

I believe it was the terrible Quality of the entire Back To Basics álbum what ended her career. Bionic was just the final nail on the coffin.

ARTPOP, JOANNE, Cheeck To Cheek

Nah, but she had a +50k crowd in Tel Aviv in 2017-2018 for her own show. Bigger than some shows on Baseball stadiums :sistrens:

Bionics literally gave us the word "flop" :cm:

For male pop boys its Zayn too. That Icarus Falls record really destroyed his career. Nothing ever was the same while he had some actual hits from 2016-2017. Most shortlived career of all time

ARTPOP, her career was never the same after that. And none of her studio albums after it have surpass it

Gaga’s career after ARTPOP: 2 #1 songs, 4 #1 albums, sold-out stadium shows, massive movie roles, better management, acclaim + successful makeup brand and the list goes on… :lakitu:

Huh? She had a major career shift thanks to her talent and versatility. I really don't have the time to name all of her achievement post 2013. I'm sure you are completely aware of them since you are following every single step she takes :) 

No i'm not? It's common knowledge her solo albums post-Artpop flopped and Rain On Me wasn't that big of a hit despite the Ariana feature.

 

Gaga is past her peak and that's okay. I too disagree with calling Artpop a "career-ending" since she still managed to keep her name afloat but saying she reached new heights is just pathetic given how massive her first records were. Do you think honestly think Shallow solely gave her the same amount of attention as the consecutive smash hits from 2008-2011? :dies:

It’s fair to say her career reached new heights when she releases a song that surpasses Bad Romance (Shallow) but Poker Face is still her biggest.

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.

 

 

The fact that I hardcore loved this album, watched the livestream, and went to the tour during this era. The album is fantastic, but is just not meant for mainstream. I would say the majority of what is going to be posted is albums that were not mainstream hits but have cult followings among the fanbases.

This is the HOLY TRINITY of career-ending album, even if all three artists are still releasing new material, their careers were never the same after these.

 

I don't agree with the other two, but I will co-sign that Britney Jean was both a failure for Britney stans and the general public beyond Work *****! I almost wish she would acknowledge that she didn't sing the majority of it so we could expunge it from the catalogue. OR she could re-release an EP of songs with her vocals. I'd love that ;)

I think all three albums were a turning point in their careers. All three had had great success with their previous albums (B2B, FF and Prism), but these albums marked the end of an era and they haven't had the same success ever since. Yes, they have hits with other artists (like Xtina with A Great Big World and Britney with Elton), but their careers have never been the same since those releases.

 

In the case of Britney, BJ is even despised by fans (Bionic is actually loved by fans; it's Lotus the one most of us dislike) and it's surrounded by controversy (with Britney's vocals being at the center of it).

Shallow is shaping up to be one of the biggest hits of all time. ARUTW is doing ~550k daily streams 4 years after release, so it's not just Shallow. ASIB was a massive era for her. How did her career end with ARTPOP when she had two #1s on the Hot 100 after that and additional two top 5 singles? Not to mention so many iconic performances and 7 Grammys won, an Oscar, BAFTA, 2 Golden Globes, 2 Critics Choice Awards etc. Make it make sense! :rip:

witness being a career-ending album is such an overdone and tired take. like i’m begging for there to be a thread about albums that ruined careers that doesn’t have witness in the OP. it was obviously bad and it flopped but katy was doomed no matter what. prism proved she was headed out the door when 3/5 singles bombed and dr luke got canceled and pop’s sound shifted

According to him all of them were released as official singles, but I am wishing you good luck to make him understand they were not ! :bird:
