She had tons of promo. Furthermore, according to the Kats she scored a hit with Chained to the Rhythm whereas Gaga didn't even have a hit during album release week. How ****ed up. Expand It's been 8 months since Joanne and that was released in a better time of year for album sales. What aren't y'all getting about the "album sales dwindle over time" thing? It's not comparable. Regardless, this is really bad for Katy. 200k should have been a minimum with the tour bundle and she's not even doing that. I'm embarrassed and sad for her but it just means she needs to ****ing step it up, yes I know she's struggling with identity issues and image and not wanting to be Katy Perry anymore but if she wants to still have a career after this tragedy she needs to woman up, grow a vagina, grow her hair back and give the people what they want again. The fact she supposedly had a major partnership with Spotify this era and is still only pulling 20k from there is laughable, with THREE singles.

EdwardChristopher Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Katy lost to Gaga because Gaga is more talented by far.

The growth in her music isn't the problem, it's the best it's ever been. If growing means cancelling her career... then grow she has.
MonsterNavy Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 ATRL pls This is the normal sales these days why are yall dragging her? No huge hits but still selling like this. This is like Joanne (Perfect Illusion was the only single when Joanne was released and we all know how hard that bombed)

ifeelitboy Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Katy waited too long to release the album, if the album released in March, numbers would be amazing. Still, none of the numbers can't change the fact that the album is the best one in 2017.
Phil Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 The Witness predictions going down remind me of a certain era I know so well

No huge hits but still selling like this. This is like Joanne (Perfect Illusion was the only single when Joanne was released and we all know how hard that bombed) Expand These numbers are actually ok and would've been even respectable for Katy considering her struggle with singles during this era. The main problem (and the reason why people are dragging/disappointed with) is because she had a huge tour bundle to help her sales. Even with this bundle, the sales aren't that big, which leaves us wondering how much she would sell without it (probably 80-100k) and that's real low for someone like her. Gaga didn't had this with Joanne, so her 200k debut was amazing and no one dragged her for it. Also her streaming numbers are very underwhelming. OT: I hope the prediction increases

It's estimated at 20k, which seems fairly accurate looking at iTunes and Spotify Expand The album is doing so good on Spotify that I can't believe she will have onle 20k. Witness already has multiple tracks over 1 million plays and even 2 (songs that aren't singles)
ToxicKat Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Keep dragging Katy. Sales are going to be even lower once we get into the end or the y ear/2018. Good luck to your faves.

Yes she has Closer but tbh the GP wouldn't care about her as a featuring artist and Lorde has a real fanbase. So hopefully.
MaMaZeng Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 The Chainsmokers had the tour bundles too and they did 200k+ The numbers are very low for someone like Katy.
