Sell makeup (wait, she can’t even do that ). Taylor can make great albums & has the demand so of course she’ll release as many albums as she can in her prime, what else is she supposed to do, it’s her literal job.

Since when are great albums objectively bashed for winning AOTY? At this point a mid-Taylor album is great for her fans. Objectively-speaking she's slowly making people talk about how her albums are NOT that great after all.
Monday Night Messiah Posted February 9 Posted February 9 29 minutes ago, Hunter_13 said: Dua Lipa also performed an unreleased song at the Grammys. Kacey Musgraves announced a new album and had commercials airing promoting it. Sza also got a 2nd performance/commercial for her new song Saturn. None of them are being dragged for announcing new projects at the grammys. Again, it's just selective outrage towards Taylor as usual. None of them got up on that stage and promoted their upcoming material. Dua's is a performance, meant for the event. She didn't sing "Training Season, my new single, coming out February 9 from my third studio album" as she struts her ass onstage 2

Felt just a little tacky and I say that as a stan When Leonardo DiCaprio grabs his second Oscar and announces during his acceptance speech that his next movie is so and so then what
dirrtydiana Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Because it wasn’t a bi yearly release. People are fed up with tay whereas with Gaga people were excited to see what she was coming up with next. People already know what to expect from ms swift 1
Brooklyn Baby Posted February 9 Posted February 9 7 minutes ago, airplane said: the girl needs to take a break in between, enter a new, creative headspace before churning out another album just for the sake of it. releasing lil quick albums like singles is not it… MIDnights was MID, the tv’s sound botched which is why people prefer to stream the original songs instead.. etc etc. She’s just capitalising on her hype atm and i think it might backfire. Now I stan Rihanna but we shouldn't be talking about taking breaks for creativity with that avi. Rihanna also released an album more frequently than Taylor did when she was still active 1

'Midnights' is literally universally acclaimed by critics, the public, her fans and the music industry. Thinking of it as "mid" is a niche opinion and not one that's reflected in whatever metric you want to go by. Ditto the TVs. And people do not prefer to stream the originals, as every TV so far has outperformed its respective previous recording with the exception of '1989 TV', which is not even half a year old and it takes time for the TVs to fully settle in. 1 3 1
Bosque Posted February 9 Posted February 9 (edited) So according to this thread, the Grammys are an extremely prestigious event where one must behave well to respect all the serious art that they are honoring? Because that’s not what I heard last week? Edited February 9 by Dephira

galomika Posted February 9 Posted February 9 gaga's felt like a celebration, hers felt like it's all about her... 2
Dula Peep Posted February 9 Posted February 9 She should’ve at least sang the title like Gaga….. oh wait. 8
Great808 Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Maybe because Lady Gaga has 100 times more talent than Taylor Swift does? 6

eleganceislearned Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Some of the brain dead responses here… Anyway, VMAs are meant for stunts, actually considered a failure if the show doesn’t produce stunts, and fans actually attend - it’s a bit unserious and laid back. The Grammys are full of the industry and a level of decorum is expected. Taylor was not reading the environment at all. It’s like comparing The People’s Choice Awards or the Golden Globes vs the Academy Awards 2 1
Norte Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Because listening a Taylor Swift speech is annoying, now imagine hearing that's she's releasing a album 2

Jay07 Posted February 9 Posted February 9 59 minutes ago, Mr. Mendes said: Breaking News: A woman whose job it is to make music records an album. More on that at 6. Some would argue about quality over quantity and Taylor certainly is a good argument for that.
Pop Art Posted February 9 Posted February 9 22 minutes ago, Kh-Loud said: Because Taylor swift is the white Nicki Minaj except Nicki is a better singer and dancer Oh you know it's bad when we're saying Nicki is a better singer and dancer than anyone, which I'm shocked to say she kind of is in this case. OT: The people in here saying it's because no one cares for Gaga music are either trolling, need help with reading comprehension, or are blinded with bias and/or anger. The topic of the thread is very clearly about when Gaga announced Born This Way at her peak in 2010, not about any made up announcement in 2024. I'm not sure how that is so hard to grasp that multiple users flew right by it. 1
The Music Industry Posted February 9 Posted February 9 1 hour ago, airplane said: Gaga doesn’t release an album every two weeks So it's just bitterness because Taylor is hard-working and constantly has the industry in a chokehold? Oh

dawnettakins Posted February 9 Posted February 9 (edited) Gaga wasn't yet at that oversaturation point where a backlash ensued. That happened a little after that though, like by 1 year. Taylor is definitely at an uber oversaturated level at this point. It was only be a matter of time, it's not as if Taylor hasn't had her backlash era before. She'll be fine anyway.

peacok Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Because the VMA's are tacky so anyone can get away with doing something like that, Taylor doing it at the Grammys was classless
