is constantly donating to charities and paying her staff and crew very well.

She's really not donating that much to charity at all. I love her, but her philanthropic efforts are minuscule compared to her wealth. And paying people who work for you more money (as you gross a billion+ on a tour) isn't really all that in the grand scheme of things. It's nice, but at the same time it's also self-serving.

Ask him if he’ll stop buying her CDs, vinyl, merch or tour tickets though

Yet he's contributing to her being a billioner, simply by buying merchandise with each merch drop, and buying her concert tickets 

He addresses this in the video.

I'm convinced the people constantly posting about Taylor genuinely don't give a **** about her music or art, they just want to brag about numbers and she just happened to be the biggest. I never see a thread about a song, a video or performance (mostly because they're mid) just threads about her being the biggest and selling the most SPS (whatever that is). Okay, you have the biggest one. Do you feel better now?

So you agree, she's the biggest?

she's the first ethical billionaire y'all!!! maybe second after Rih

This is entertainment industry 101…. They see something thriving in a market and they make sure to have offsprings taking their share and redirecting the revenue stream once a labels’ main star has the potential to lose space. Music IS a business after all.

 

But Nicki is in a different position than Taylor. Taylor never lost her lead in the pop market, even when it seemed she had peaked already (first around Fearless, then 1989) and now she’s having her biggest year ever. Nicki has peaked. She’s not the dominant force of the early to mid-2010s in the female rap market these days. The competition has outdone her these last few years. Both Doja and Ice are having a bigger 2023 than her. The only thing that changed this year is that Cardi and Megan lost ground and other girls are coming for their place (Ice Spice, Sexxy Red) and Nicki has regained some with her two collaborations with Ice Spice. I still think Nicki is underrated and deserves flowers for sticking around, but she turned Cardi’s breakthrough into a conspiracy and used that to launch her own era lol

it's not her fault other girls are doing nothing thread-worthy

No, but maybe one for mental health support for OTHs.

Nope. Just ask the other girls to do something. They do nothing and it's not Taylor's fault. 

They're enjoying their money and not doing jacksh*t and you have the nerve to complain about Taylor, someone who's actually not afraid of doing her work

Literally nobody denies that, people are just tired of the obnoxious behavior of the Swifties, and her being shoved down their throats

I'm convinced at this point that this unprecedented peak will be followed by an unprecedented downfall.

The GP is about to be tested by the biggest overexposure yet in pop culture.

 

:suburban:

Yep!

nobody thought Katy would have a downfall either at the time she was dominating and look at her.

Did you watch the video? I’m sure if he was not a fan you’d be in here calling him an OTH.

Lmao fully this. She just has really good PR around her efforts. Just like all of the bullshit political stuff during Lover. 
 

Certain swifties want to make her into something she’s not, whether that’s a political activist, philanthropist or… gay. It’s weird. There’s nothing wrong with just being someone who makes good and popular music.
