It's funny, because back in the day Ariana couldn't get a no.1 to save her life... how far we've come :heart:

This. I remember we were celebrating so hard when Dangerous Woman debuted at #10 on H100. Now her standard is set so high up.

She literally is either gonna debut #1 or #2 on the BB H100 next week so what do you think?

Y’all keep trying to push this narrative that she’s forgotten and she keeps proving you wrong

Max Martin is burnt out but there does not yet appear to be a consistent next generation ‘Hit’ songwriter with his former songwriting strengths to replace him. 
 

Ariana has enough fans who will remain loyal and hold out for stronger material but it feels like 5 minutes ago she flew back to the U.S. from England after filming “Wicked” and began her album from scratch.
 

The quality of the first single is reflective of how rushed the studio sessions were.  Meanwhile there are others who scheduled studio time with Max just prior to Ariana (including Madonna), whose material is still being finished off and is yet to be heard.

 

 

 

OMG, Madonna is working with Max? I didn't know thissss.

Nowadays, it is easier to get a #1, though.

Yet a lot of mainstream artists are still struggling to debut or hit there.

It’s an awful song and she sent it to the top of the charts. She’s doing just fine :skull:

Since when did we classify songs as hits based off their debuts?

You think Yes, and would have been an easy #1 for anybody else? :dies:

I mean, I'm not happy with this song being her comeback after years and it's by far her worst lead (Problem aged but back then it sounded like a smash), I'm happy a portion of her fanbase got what they wanted, but this is not the Ariana most of her audience loves so I get it if this doesn't hold up to the expectations.

It’s so funny how you people keep moving the goal posts, first she was gonna tank on the debut, then that didn’t happen so the excuse was that it’s gonna plummet, it spent a whole week at #1 WW so now the drag is the she’s not going #1 in the US, now she’s predicted to do it so that’s not relevant either because she isn’t spending 2nd week at #1, and if she manages a 2nd now yall will say “that’s it?” :rip:

just take the L and move on, it’s clearly bothering you atp:monkey:

The song just isn’t GP friendly.

 

The “why do you care whose dick I ride? Why?” Lyric alone prob killed its cover potential. Who’s going to want to sing that? :skull:
 

People doing covers can literally just choose to omit that part and not sing it, or change the lyric for that part.
