PurpleQueen Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 lol this is already #6 on itunes behind Ed Sheeran's album lmao. 165 my ass. lol her fans are being forced to defend her fraud.
SeeingStars1515 Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 These are not good numbers for someone of Katy's visibility---she should be pulling 250k numbers IMO, but her music has got to diversify and mature a bit
Whale Tongue Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 This is rough. #6 on iTunes before the first tracking week is over? She must be doing close to SZA numbers... I was starting to stan before the album came out. I never imagined those 3 singles would be the high points of the album for me.

It's still a #1 album and she succeeded in getting her name back out there, now she just needs to play the rest of the era right with singles and she's fine. Plus the Calvin Harris track might be a hit, which could also put her back in favor with radio. Why are monsters always jumping the gun on anything Katy related and when she ends up succeeding in the end, you guys back peddle and act like you never posted things like this. Wait until the era is over to drag. The first week isn't even over and you're talking about total album sales as if you've seen the future
Azor Ahai Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Less than Joanne numbers with 3 dance tracks released and ALL feature rappers. Less than the "country" album that not many little monsters even liked when she has a TOUR BUNDLE. This is really really really bad.

BTW had that deal because of huge demand, Witness's tour bundling is the opposite. Besides, what rational person would say NO to the Amazon deal? It's basically easy money.

People have always been perched for Katy on ATRL, I remember how many people were in her album thread any time we thought it would leak as well as the base thread. They sit and wait for her to fail and when she does or looks like she might they all line up and quote the same tired shady post. It's always the same people. The worst part about it is, that even some of the moderators have shaded her or turn a blind eye and this has been happening for years. It's pathetic really. Ultimately, Katy is doing what she wants as an artist and do to her massive success in the past, has such high standards that we wouldn't expect of a lot of artists. Think of someone like Carly Rae Jepsen who I live for- she really only had a huge smash with CMM but other than that she has never been a big pop star. She puts out what she wants as an artist whether it sells or not, and actually her fanbase is more refreshing and less negative because of it. I also can't with the monsters still bashing Katy. Are we in 2010 still? MOVE ON.

I don't know... 130k would be considered as tragic for her. She's doing less than 100k in pure sales during her opening week ? That's weird ! Her decline is huge if it is real.

Joanne pulled amazing number. Selling less doesn't make Witness "really really really" bad

If there's a song left in the album that can smash don't you think they had pre released that already? And Calvin is not going for the trendy commercial sound this time, it'd be a Super minor hit at the very best though I'm a huge fan of his funky stuffs lately, I don't think it will smash. The only hope left for Katy is her tour, and if it can be as huge as Prismatic tour, she should be ok cos that's where the money comes from. Edited June 15, 2017 by freddisier

GokuRed Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Looking at Spotify streams I'm like 90% sure that SZA is outstreaming Katy this week in America
MaMaZeng Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Suddenly a major pop girl doing less than 200k and free falling on iTunes is "not bad". So why were you dragging Joanne's first week numbers?
