Let’s rank the biggest albums released by MPGs this decade (so far)

I think the biggest is Midnights and the Smallest is Chromatica or Renaissance. 

Gaga is my fave but Chromatica has okay-fish numbers.

Biggest: Midnights

 

Smallest: Chromatica 

Biggest: Future Nostalgia

 

Smallest: Chromatica

Biggest: Future Nostalgia or Midnights 

 

Smallest: Chromatica

Biggest: FN 

Smallest: evermore

 

 

Biggest: Sour / Midnights

Smallest: Chromatica / Renaissance

Biggest I voted Midnights. But Future Nostalgia might win since it had insane longevity and Taylor will probably cut the era short for another TV.

 

The smallest era was Chromatica no competition.

At this time in their chart runs: Chromatica was at #153 on the BB 200, Renaissance is at #12. 
 

We have a winner 

Biggest: Future Nostalgia. Although Midnights might overtake that after touring.

 

Smalles: idk. Positions? I know Chromatica is getting a lot of votes, but I thought the tour was kind of an event.

Oh c’mon Renaissance outdid Chromatica in every metric.

The Tour alone will be bigger than any other mpg ever sans Taylor.

 

They are nowhere near.

I had the same opinion regarding Midnights vs Future Nostalgia. Midnights very clearly had a very strong head start, but Future Nostalgia had excellent longevity. But in the end, I think Taylor has proven that she is the longevity queen album wise, so I think Midnights will also have a better longevity. 

 

Single-wise, Future Nostalgia clears. Album-wise, I have little to no doubts Midnights will clear. 

Biggest is Future Nostalgia, smallest is Chromatica but I mistakenly voted for Renaissance

FN lasted 2019/2020/2021 on full force. But she had a very low debut and build over time.

 

Idk the exact units sold but the first month of Midnights probably outsold the half of the FN era.

 

Midnights might have outsold by now

 

But by Sept/Oct I expect another TV single or album that will finish the Midnights era.

 

So it all depends on how much she sells these months.

 

They are head to head imo.

 

FN era singles are much bigger definitely

I voted Chromatica but yeh I can see now Renaissance is way bigger. They’re still bottom two here though. 
 

I love both albums and still use both

It’s not “way bigger” but it is the more successful era of the two, easily. Renaissance is also 200 million+ streams ahead of where Chromatica was at this point (and that’s just on Spotify, Apple Music not included) and she didn’t have Ariana Blackpink and Elton John on her album to help with that 

Biggest: Future Nostalgia / Midnights

Smallest: Happier Than Ever / Renaissance 

Chromatica is several orders of magnitude smaller than everything else. For biggest I voted Renaissance but could also be Sour 

Renaissance is only 2 singles in w/ no videos (so far). Don't think it should be compared with eras that are already done.

 

Also SOS and Midnights have a lot to go still.

Biggest: FN, it's passed the 10 million followed by Sour which is close or has done it too

Smallest: Chromatica

Biggest: Future Nostalgia

Smallest: Evermore

If we're talking about eras... biggest - Future Nostalgia, smallest - evermore

FN is at 13 million according to the website this site loves (Chartmasters) while Midnight is at 7-8 million based on what I read so they're not that close.

Biggest : Sour

Smallest : Chromatica

Yeah but even new album releases don't end Taylor's previous albums. See for example Lover, which is still top 50 despite the release of folklore, evermore, Fearless TV, Red TV and Midnights. This is why I think whatever the numbers might currently be, Midnights will end up stronger, especially if you factor in the tour. 

 

Easily the top 2 era so far anyway.
