lonnie Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 Congrats to her Not a good look for Taylor, despite all that success she could have just let this one go and now she ended up looking greedy and not getting the top position

She has multiple #1s in the US, almost a dozen #1 albums, almost multiple diamond albums, multiple grammy AOTYs, record breaking tours, hundreds of millions of dollars, etc. So the need to do the antics she does makes no sense and she should be way above that. She already does a lot with the multiple album/vinyl covers/versions for physical sales that these cheap digital versions are just...what's the point? It's just always perplexing to me that her fans paint her as this revolutionary artist who is so dedicated to her craft, but the second she releases an album that only vibe you get from her is she wants sales/money. Not that she just wants her music to connect with people. Pretty much sums it up. No one is arguing that Taylor and Midnights aren't successful. The resorting to tricks wasn't necessary. Her keeping up with her numbers in the same way an obsessed stan would do and making adjustments to stay on top is weird and her stans are being delusional thinking this is anything like sports (which can also have unhealthy competition) that's a lot more organic than Taylor's antics.
spree Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 So Taylor’s gimmicks didn’t work this time? She went all desperate for nothing? So the fans who were coerced into buying gained what exactly? A #2?
Taylucifer Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 i'm not mad, Sza deserved it 100% it's also hilarious how you losers want Swifties to be mad at this when most are congratulating Sza

But it would block a black woman from a very important achievment that hasn't been seen in 30 years. Yall have to realize how marginilized black and female artists really are. Yall celebrate Tayor literally everyday for her massive success but fail to acknowldge her appeal as a white woman. Releasing those digital albums like that in the midst of a underrepresented miniority having so much success was nasty work. You have to know when to scale back. If we all know Taylor wil lnaturally go back to #1, why did she do that? Very well said!
PopFan1996 Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 At the end of the day, talent won and that's what matters

I really hope Taylor's deepest insecurities and fears come true about being a geriatric popstar and fading since she turned 30. Her antics to try to block SZA just repulsed so many ppl. SZA should have never clarified there was no beef, she and Punch had every right to like the shady comments and make tweets.
Literature Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) Am i missing something? Why are people so happy about this when both albums already peaked at #1 and are gaining huge amounts.....like why does this random week at #1 even matter so much? are OTH just down bad for a win? Edited January 9, 2023 by Literature
Planet Mars Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 I understand the frustration with Taylor but some of you are REACHING with this narrative of painting Taylor Swift as a colonizer imperializing the charts from artists of color. It is NOT that deep I'm happy for SZA though

Because it isn't random. Sza is the first black woman in 30 years to have 4 consecutive weeks at #1, it's a serious achievement. Y'all just don't realize

Y'all just don't realize aint no way youre serious.... im sure the part of the black community in need of social justice is benefitting so much from this record that no one outside of ATRL knows or cares about yall actually turned serious issues into a joke Edited January 9, 2023 by Literature

Taylor saw the predictions were close and tried to get another week at #1. You can think she's greedy or whatever, but the attempts to try and make it anything else than that here are very, very transparent
GipJo Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 Glad that chart obsessed fake white eco-terrorist didn't win. She can do better than releasing cheap scam. If you want to earn the coins, at least put out decent contents for it.
My Tears Ricochet Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 Glad to see Taylor losing Her greed and desperation was getting out of hand
