Is Taylor Swift Too Big to Fail? Will TS11 be a hit no matter what?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Considering TS11's potential, it seems almost guaranteed to be a success. Do you think Taylor is "too big to fail", or do you believe there's any chance her next album might flop?

Nobody is too big to fall.

She's not too big to fail (this doesn't exist) and she's obviously going to experience a decline from there. 

 

She's set for a massive debut no matter what for TS11, but if people don't like the music then she'll start declining.

Yes

Yes, obviously a flop from Taylor would start the world’s greatest economic collapse.

They said the same thing about MJ and Madonna in the 80’s and then they both had sex scandals/ Erotica eras. A controversy is the only thing that will probably stall her. But at this rate musically she is solidified for the next decade at least

Depends on what you consider failing.

the music industry has proved no matter how BIG u are u can still flop now or one day.

Nope.  That’s what everyone thought about Gaga in 2010/early 2011 too.  Taylor needs to be careful with how overexposed she is becoming.  Overexposure leads to resentment.  Nothing, absolutely nothing, is ever too big to fail.  Use the Titanic as another example.

if she releases music that is not good then yes, but that chance is pretty low. i hope TS11 isn't some mass-produced pop slob and is the same quality of folklore, midnights.

Her next Era will be akin to Adele's 25.

 

3m+ first week, but overall decline from previous album, then she will "flop" with something like 30

No, but I must say that unlike many of the other artists right now, Taylor has an enormous fanbase that will support her through thick and thin, so her sales and streams are good for another decade. But a controversy can lead to her losing the respect she has among general public so quickly.

I can't see a Taylor album performing worse than Lover for the next 15 years (and Lover was still a success)

The music industry is ageist and sexist, so turning 35 this year could be a problem.

I remember when swifties thought Taylor was never going to stop getting hits in 2015-2016

Idk about radio but her fans will keep her debuting atop album charts well into her 70s like Bruce’s

She might decline commercially eventually but will remain with a loyal fanbase

It will most likely smash, but everyone can flop.

she will decline, but she’s so big that even when she declines she’s still going to be on par with everyone else. just not blowing them out of the water.

 

for example, lover back in 2019.

i don't see a lot of people saying "omg she's not 34 anymore?!!!"

I don't see her ever truly declining or flopping but I think her career would rather get more... stale at some point. Meaning that her catalogue will always have a lot of streams but her new releases wont eventually be these massive ubiquitous releases anymore like Midnights. I don't see her having another 2023 for example

Yes she reached the final level and can’t flop no matter what anymore

Adding on to this: I think the rerecordings + TS11/TS12 will have her catalogue streams set for atleast till the end of the decade. If she keeps releasing albums every 2 years after the rerecordings I don't see her ever being knocked from her No.1 spot on streaming because it would be too many releases to ever catch up. But eventually her albums will stop pulling 1M first week and they won't be constant big successes like Midnights, rather just stable
