celeb news Billie Eilish drags artists releasing different vinyls for numbers and money

[k4rmabutterfly]

 

"I can't even express to you how wasteful it is. It is right in front of our faces and people are just getting away with it left and right, and I find it really frustrating as somebody who really goes out of my way to be sustainable and do the best that I can and try to involve everybody in my team in being sustainable — and then it's some of the biggest artists in the world making f–king 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more. It's so wasteful, and it's irritating to me that we're still at a point where you care that much about your numbers and you care that much about making money — and it's all your favorite artists doing that sh-t.”

 

Thoughts?

She's right and she should say it.

Girl anyway

She literally does the SAME EXACT THING. Plus she does special vinyl editions with luxury brands that barely do anything for sustainability (Like Gucci)

[wastedpotential]

 

She's one to ******* talk 

[By the Water]

How does hers being made with recycled material change the fact that she's doing it for sales and money though? 

 

Also

 

[Price of Fame]

I agree with the 2x Oscar winner (not everybody has that despite trying so desparately just to even get a nomination)

[Timeless]

She's such a hypocrite 

[Solaria]

YESSS BILLIE CAN YASELF. ONE LESS THREAT FOR DUA 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

Shes basically shading Taylor since she is the one most known for doing it (the thing with each vinyl having a different song)

[TROJAN]

She's right

[SharGaga]

Taylor is the only one who actually has the demand to sell this stuff out. Nobody bought Olivia's 4 track deluxe songs vinyl in November. That's actually wasteful.

One thing about Billie is that she is outspoken and she WILL say what's on her mind. Kudos to her bc she is 100% right

 

She's already been using recycled materials for her vinyls, so I'm expecting that to continue from here on out.

 

EDIT: awww keep downvoting me! let your frustrations out

[Richie.Valdez]

No lies told... the sole purpose to release multiple editions is to rip off underdeveloped minds that are easily tricked into that money-hungry machine. 

 

It's all about making money and bragging rights. They could care less about the environment because when things get even more rough in this planet due to global warming they will have the money to be comfortable while the underdeveloped minds will stare and suffer.

Actually GUTS was #6 on the Best Selling Global Vinyl sales list per IFPI so that is not correct

Go off

How to be right and wrong at the same time

She's not basically shading one individual, she blatantly says it's "ALL your favorite artists doing it,” including Beyonce, Lana, Gaga, Ariana, The Weeknd, endless names.

Lorde is the first to have a discless era to save the planet with Solar Power. 

 

Billie is following the trends with an insincere way as always. She had 8 vinyl variants during Happier Than Ever era which is way more than recent Taylor / Ariana / Dua eras.

I'm talking about a separate 4 song vinyl that already was divided between the 4 variants. That's what you call milking. Obviously nobody had anything to say about that because she ain't no Taylor Swift.

she mentions the vinyls having a "unique" thing which makes me believe she means the midnights clock vinyl and the tortured poets department bonus tracks etc. Same thing with Olivia,

[State of Grace.]

Well...what she said is all right lol.

 

But she's still a capitalist signed to a major label so these takes are so Let's see what they do BL3's rollout.

[fememeist]

She says she and her team tries to be sustainable but she does the same thing?
