penguintim Posted February 4 Posted February 4 On the positive side, congratulations to Nicki for doubling her number of Grammy awards tonight! Spoiler 2x0 = 0 9
Champagne Posted February 4 Posted February 4 She deserves this mess. Congrats on losing another 2. Karma is real. Buckle in for the incoming meltdown.
starsailor Posted February 5 Posted February 5 LMAO The year just started and we probably had the best week of the year already! I’m living! 1

Mr. Mendes Posted February 5 Posted February 5 10 hours ago, FOCK said: Calling Meg “independent” is like saying Nicki is independent because she releases under “HeavyOnIt”. Independent artists are by definition, self supporting & self funding, in order to maximise their return on investment and the profit from their own art. That is not the position Meg finds herself in. She has to pay Warner & Roc back for all they’re pouring into her rn, marketing, PR, management, playlisting etc including giving them a significant cut of any brand deals she may land, any merch she sells, AND she’s signed away her power of attorney (I don’t think y’all understand how insane this is, Roc can make any decisions and enter into any contracts on her behalf, including making her medical decisions) - but yay, she gets the “privilege” of paying to produce her own music (which is expensive af). Her contract is as predatory as they come. Owning your masters also doesn't mean much when everyone involved still needs to be paid publishing, on top of the career you’re paying off while Roc Nation laughs to thee bank. The girls stay taking shortcuts to glorified influencerdom & never learn. I think you just have a very narrow view of what constitutes independent or not and have no real desire to learn because the person in question embarrassed your fave 3
Maroonx Posted February 5 Posted February 5 I can't wait for the BB100 announcement in a few hrs, when they shade Nicki and praise "Hiss" being #1
Nico Kwon Posted February 5 Posted February 5 I was told the song wasn't falling, but the stats show otherwise. What is the truth? Day 9 on Spotify: Hiss — #50 (-18) — 1.829.198 streams (-500k) 2

La Reina Posted February 5 Posted February 5 (edited) 23 hours ago, FOCK said: I’m dumbfounded that ATRL, so readily accusing artists of being “industry plants”, are blind to the clearly fraudulent tactics that were at play here. There’s nothing organic about this & unless all her future releases receive the same costly push, which isn’t sustainable, the numbers are going to be abysmal. The world is not playing this song like that (not just this song specifically, but female rap in general, especially one without a hook, meme or pop appeal) & demand doesn’t just appear out of thin air (Cobra happened). Like, they must know, right? There’s some awareness beneath the kii’s & downvotes? I’m foreseeing they’ll at least nab her a cross-over smash following this up, I can even see a surprise appearance at Usher’s SuperBowl Half time. She’ll have a cute season, they’ll get ha in all the right spaces - and once the album drops and does wood, she’ll do ha little national tour, while languishing in debt & picking up random endorsements (that she’ll see no money from) to pay this massive campaign back. Roc have set this poor girl up for eternal servitude, but great optics ig. 22 hours ago, FOCK said: Girl… we’re being very generous with what we describe as “independent”. Meg’s video has been on every YouTube recommendation & it’s no surprise, as she’s linked to the head of music at YouTube. She’s on Spotify playlist covers that her song doesn’t even feature in and is being recommended or auto played after unrelated artists. I personally received 3 r/megantheestallion notifications from reddit in one day - and I don’t even follow that subforum, nor any music related accounts, have never visited it or done anything to give the algorithm an indication that I would & BARLEY receive notifications from the sub forums I actually check. Not to mention the blog blasts about this “newly signed deal” that was actually signed a month ago. This campaign has hit all angles, across all socials & the actual substance is… just not there. This is costly. And it doesn’t just happen, even for the biggest hits in the world. Even that aside, look at the performance of her latest outputs prior to Hiss. This is just not how things organically work. It’s all just soo convenient. These deranged fanfics are giving slw84 or whatever his username is Edited February 5 by La Reina 1
theweekend Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Y'all goofy-ass hoes look so dumb every time y'all celebrate fake news, hah Usin' my name for likes and views, I don't give a **** what y'all make trend *****, I still win 6
La Reina Posted February 5 Posted February 5 The way the Barbz, her own fanbase, ended up becoming the reason for her own undoing. This is why artists/celebs shouldn't feed the parasocial relationship that their fans have with them. It's irresponsible and they don't know these people or their intentions. 1

V$. Posted February 5 Posted February 5 How many hours are left until the top 10 of the hot 100? #Here4theFuming 1
justin. Posted February 5 Posted February 5 I actually don’t think Miss Petty will do anymore ranting. I think she realized she looked like an absolute clown and someone talked her down. Spoiler Hopefully, I’m wrong, just so we can get some more kii’s today Now the Barbz are going to be messy af. 2
ANG3L Posted February 5 Posted February 5 (edited) Megan hitting #1 is a start of a new era Nicki thinks she’s above every female rapper and can bully without getting a punch back. Now she IS the joke She ruined her entire momentum after having cute numbers with her new album, all of because her disgusting ego Instead of getting referenced and loved by her peers as an icon, her legacy will be remembered for all her pettiness Edited February 5 by ANG3L 10
