Solaria Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 I was told Billie is the bigger artist. Why the sophomore effort of Billie failed to debut with more sales than Olivia? ย HTE debut: 238K GUTS debut: 302K 1
Escape Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Aren't you always saying big debuts aren't that impressive and it's all about longevity? 1 8
Big Bad Wolf Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Billie waited longer between albums Olivia still has her kiddy pop rock image which is on-trend right now Little to no departure from her debut sound All around: more safe. Billie is still bigger and better. 2 3
ReneighIsHere Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Because billie's rollout was a mess, too many singles and the very long wait killed the hype.ย Also billie's album is less commercial and too slow to get any hits except happier than ever which was a success 1
naval23 Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Hopefully Dua Lipa 3 can be in the same league because both those debuts are absolutely massiveย 2 1

KatyPrismSpirit Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Isn't Happier Than Ever still charting for it's 110th week or something? It never left the chart. That's very impressive and I can only hope Guts serves the same longevity 1
wish Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 And both of them will outdebut Dua Lipa's next albumย 3 3 7

ReneighIsHere Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Just now, Aston Martin said: Why they didnโt launch the album with the title track as the lead (as well as the 4-5 pre album singles) will always be baffling.ย I think they wanted to keep the "strongest" song for the album release and that is understadable, but there's no way the rollout for the album should have been that long. A clean 3 months rollout with 2 singles would have been so better
Sombre Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Didn't you create a thread about the exact same topic? There's really no need for another thread. It's getting tired and looks so forced.ย 6 1

Just 2 like you said makes much more sense.ย 1
Post Malone Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Because Olivia is the MPG of gen z while the other is a fad of early 2019

Billie is still bigger and better. 1.) They both waited 2 years though? 2.) HTEโs biggest hit, the title track, literally is the same kiddy type pop rock song 3.) HTE wasnโt even that big of a change sound wise.ย 1 6
playwithme Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Oliviaโs bland image and mediocre music pushed her over 300K. Billie gave us a masterpiece. Oxytocin > Oliviaโs career. 5 5
OnlyManInTheWorld Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Oxytocin shouldโve been called โbad thingsโ and served as a lead single followed by HTE.
