Kelly Clarkson bombing. What happened?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is this surprising? She isn’t releasing commercial music anymore and there’s still no lead single. She’s busy working on her #1 talk show :clap3:

I love her but these songs are awful. I couldn't listen to them for more than a minute. Even the visuals are dull.

 

Is there a reason she hasn't worked with the Stronger album writers and producers?

Posted

music is clearly a passion project for her at this point. I think she knows that anything she releases now will flop yall :rip: She has other sources of income for her (The Voice, her talk show etc...). This is just to tap into her artistic side again is all

I had no idea she had new songs out and that she has an album coming

It's not 2006 anymore. We're in 2023 and Kelly Clarkson is 41 years old. At this point, the best hope for Kelly getting another hit is if one of her old album cuts goes viral like RUTH.

No promo.

Mine is an awesome song. :clap3:

We wanted Since U Been Gone esque bops and she gave us "Low" instead

Wait, she released new songs? :deadbanana4:

She has a Christmas hit every year.

95% of artists fade drastically in popularity over time, and single success is where its normally hit hardest... nothing to see here.

There are alot of reasons but lets face it, a double release is never a good idea when you are not at your peak as an artist. Also the most important part is that they are both not catchy, Mine is stronger but even that song is kind of soft for a first single.

 

I love her but I don't think this album will have strong singles. Lets not forget MD was amazing but almost nothing from that album was radio friendly. I fear the same faith for this album, though judging by those 2 singles, it is not as strong and they are trying to make it somewhat radio friendly but those two are not edgy enough nor radio friendly enough so this is missing both points for me.

People are just tired of the same ol' same ol' from her she doesn't bring anything interesting to the table and she hasn't since My Life Would Suck Without You

This.

 

The reason Kelly goes viral by covering the songs of other artists is because she’s still insanely talented but also the songs she’s covering are GOOD, emotional, relatable songs that the GP connects with. The original material Kelly gives lately is so uninspired, forgettable, and boring. There’s nothing interesting to check for.

I personally find her annoying and i guess the white soccer moms that watch her cringy show already have PInk to listen to so they dont need  Kellys bland music.

You clearly aren't bright if you think soccer moms in their late 30s and 40s and grandmas are streaming singles lmao clown

Kelly Clarkson hasn’t had a legit hit in over a decade.

She’s uninteresting and no amount of viral tweets about her McCovers changes that :sorry:

The ridiculous takes in this thread. :skull:   I think some of you get more joy out of when a female artist doesn't smash than being a fan of your own faves.

 

Nobody was expecting these songs to smash.  Ageism exists, and there are very, very few female artists that are still doing well commercially at this point/age in their careers.  And that aside, Atlantic really isn't doing much for them at this point, and Kelly doesn't really care either.  The best we can hope for is more of a push closer to the album release.

 

Anyway, Bloo said it best:

Kelly is turning 41 next week, has two kids, and two other jobs. She is at a point in her life that she probably couldn't give less of a f*** about charts at this point. I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fan of mine and me. They both feel a bit meh for me. I enjoy them, but I don't have urge to listen to them like I do with most artists I love (and Kelly is the artist I've stanned the most in my life, for context). 

 

So, yeah, she isn't going to make the moves that work in the streaming era (e.g., neither song have a proper music video) and she's 20+ years into her career. She's naturally going to fade. People need to stop having ridiculous expectations for legacy artists.

Kelly Clarkson's audience has been millennial and Gen X mom's for some time now. I don't think Gen Z even knows she exists, and she hasn't had a hit at all since the streaming era.

 

Established acts can't rely on radio and payola to force us to hear their latest releases until they're stuck in our heads. 
 

Oh, and the songs are boring ballads. Kelly always launched with a really strong dance pop power ballad, but now she's trying to be Adele.

Underneath The Tree has been going top 15 on BB Hot 100 for a few years with no promo and while it's a Christmas song. A hit is a hit

Lmao we are stilllll going on ahout this :dies:

 

please Christina short career can't even compare to Kelly's longevity. I'm not wasting my time talking to someone who stans a singer who can't even crack the top 200 and sells lube 

 

 

Move along. She become a feature artist 10+ years ago nothing more lmao

Nothing you said changes anything. Xtina's overall career is still leagues above Kelly's:

 

Xtina - 57,232,000

Kelly - 39,178,000

 

How embarrassing for your fave then that she's far below someone with a supposedly "short" career by over 18+ million units:deadbanana2:

Lmao girl stop embarrassing yourself. Your fav can't chart period all she is known for is selling lube.  

 

Nobody cares about the artist that needs a feature to have a hit. When was the last solo hit she had hahahahaha. 

 

Nobody is threatened by that short career 

 

How embarrassing that she couldn't even crack the top 200 :rip:

 

Come back and talk to me when she cracks the top 200

 

There's a reason she's constantly clowned on within atrl :dies:

Kelly still has less sales, less #1 hits, less GRAMMYs, less streams, and a lower career touring gross than Xtina. :bird:

 

A woman being the owner of a company that will make more than your entire family put together ever will isn't a drag btw.

:ahh::ahh:

 

Christina debuted 5 years before Kelly I hope she would have more sales 

 

Christina has had 3 solo #1s the same as Kelly lmao. Christina's last solo #1 was in 2001 :rip::rip::rip: 22 years ago. Kelly's last #1 was in 2012. She also charts in the Top 15 every year. Christina could never 

 

She hasn't been a thing since Back To Basics nobody is worried about that flop

 

Kelly has had way more longevity and I guarantee her new album will outsell Christina's next which will also not chart 

 

It has to be embarrassing for your fav not to even crack the top 200

 

Atomic 💣 

 

Not you bragging about her CO- founding lube company 

 

You know your career is in the pits when u gotta sell lube :dies:

 

Move along stop embarrassing yourself
