Brikenbur Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) It’s no surprise that both of these artists are obsessed with charts, sales, awards, etc. Nicki seems to be more [vocally] obsessed with charts and stats as she’s constantly posting about hers on her socials, whereas, Taylor was not only seen on screen depressed about reputation not being nominated in any of The Big Four categories at the 2018 GRAMMYs and stating she needs to “make better music,” but, she has had her run-ins with heavily discounted singles, limited promos on her site, releasing several versions of her latest albums, most-recent “pls stream” gate Who’s the artist more OBSESSED with success and stats? It’s silly as both of these artists are over a decade into their respective careers, yet, care a great deal about success as if they’re new to the industry. Thoughts?

idkwiam Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 We wish Taylor was chart obsessed past week 1 actually. I think a chart obsessed artist wouldn't have let exile / august / Don't Blame Me / Afterglow as album tracks. Taylor is acclaim and money obsessed though.

Badgalbriel Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 One is a successful artist, the other is not. One doesn't have meltdowns when anything chart-related happens to her. The other does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if being on top is a good motivator to make good music, then sure why not. Nicki on the other hand hasn't released a good song in like.... a decade and still doesn't have a good album to her name 3 minutes ago, idkwiam said: Taylor is acclaim and money obsessed though. If money was more important than charts she'd release some kind of special edition box with lots of junk in there and rank up the price into hundreds of dollars. Sales units are clearly more important to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theluckyone Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Well, Taylor is my fav but I got to admit my girl’s chart obsessed. Aiming for ME!, cardigan, etc to hit #1 proves that but whilst Taylor does it in a classy and subtle way, nicki does it in a brash and gross way.

LosingHimWasBlue Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) The OP and every chart are more obsessed to Taylor tho. just look at Billboard 200 Edited October 18, 2022 by LosingHimWasBlue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klein Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 And why is it a bad thing if the music's quality is not compromised for it? Taylor first makes an ALBUM. Then she and her team find ways to make it reach its full potential (at least in the first week). I really don't get why artists who promote/push etc... their work are seen as desperate. That's their job. That's their legacy. But I guess it's just the double standard because every fanbases spend their time asking for their fave to do something.

KOMHStan13 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Taking everything you say with a grain of salt because you sound really bitter and angry, I'm sad for you. On the topic of chart obsession I'm just not seeing the proof. Taylor hasn't talked about folklore in since the end of 2020 and it's top 20 on the BB200. But yeah, she's pushing it super hard.

Enrique523 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 They both are but Taylor actually cares about making good music, unlike the other one. At the end of the day it's not big deal that artists cares about the charts as long as they don't make music calibrated only for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CottageHore Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) A Taylor fan here letting you other Swifties know that saying stuff like “Taylor isn’t chart obsessed because she released _________” makes you look very delusional. Taylor has released how many vinyl variants for this release alone? Yes, she’s obsessed with money and she’s also doing it for a massive debut, so she can keep her amazing streak going. Nicki is obviously obsessed too, she’s just way messier and more vocal about it. It’s a tie! Edited October 18, 2022 by CottageHore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
