cuteboyzay Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Despite Renaissance setting the bar extremely high for albums in general, it seems Cowboy Carter is (for some reason) gaining a much wider appeal with the General Public than Renaissance did! I mean THE becoming such a HUGE global smash and it only being the first single from the album, and it's already bigger than BMS lmao! And Cowboy Carter already outdebuting Rennie! So with that being said, what is it that Cowboy Carter has that Rennie didn't, that's making it such a huge success???
Popular Post Gov Hooka Posted March 30 Popular Post Posted March 30 I feel like it's piggy backing off the acclaim and hype from Renaissance as huge debuts tend to showcase. Wasn't cuff it bigger on streaming than Texas hold em or am I wrong? 16

The quality is there for both and that is all that was needed. 10

SoundsandSongs Posted March 30 Posted March 30 (edited) Increased streaming power from Reneigh era + several tracks being more digestable for GP + good music + smarter choices (e.g, playlisting II most wanted instead of Summer Renaissance) Let's be honest. Reneigh was a bit too gay for much of the GP. Edited March 30 by SoundsandSongs 1
Doogle Posted March 30 Posted March 30 This is all happening as a result of Renneigh. She got back on streaming thanks to Renny and now she's more successful again in the streaming era 1
Dark Phoenix Posted March 30 Posted March 30 It has a wider appeal and the GP loved that, Renny was for us messy gays and it was too KNTY for white america 1 2
Archetype Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Renn was to homosecchus for the GP. CC is the yee haa but make it talent energy they desperately needed
Gladiator Posted March 30 Posted March 30 (edited) renn was for ballroom **** and had a niche sitting that had songs that captured the gp attention that stuck with them. cowboy carter is for everyone. cowboy carter has the resurgence of commercial and critical success and GP traction renn established and it's a very strong follow up, that a lot of people consider not only better than renn but better than her entire discography bar perhaps lemonade. I believe she put way more time and consideration into this album as well, and had more time to craft it into the masterpiece that it is... considering Miley's vocals serve as a audio reference to how long its been in the works.

RihsUmbrella Posted March 30 Posted March 30 More people can relate, especially in the US. As the others said Renny is too KNTY for some to handle they're both amazing though (even though Renny will always be my fav)
Erotic Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Homophobia CC is a masterpiece though, a Virgo always gonna Virgo
Hallad173 Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Rennie felt like it was just meant yo be fun and carefree but Cowboy Carter has strong intention. Theres much more soul in it and storytelling. it just has a kind of Lemonade energy about it. Definitely a stronger contender for AOTY than rennty imo.

Plus "The AC/DC Rule", the follow up success is a referendum on the last project. https://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2013/04/04/176269938/justin-timberlake-and-the-ac-dc-rule 1 1

Cain Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Erm Renaissance had the burden of dragging her out of TG/BIK territory back into super global smash spheres Cowboy Carter had its bed spread for it by the hard work of THEE Rennie, don't put disrespect on her name Renaissance walked so CC could run! 6
Rotunda Posted March 30 Posted March 30 - Renaissance was her first official streaming era release, so there was some groundwork to make up after years of Tidal/Digital exclusives. - THE is a better lead single than BMS - This album has bigger collabs
Redstreak Posted March 30 Posted March 30 I mean it's not a PC answer but it's way less overtly queer in its influences
moondust Posted March 30 Posted March 30 ppl are lying to themselves if they think the answer is anything other than "music that appeals to straight ppl" love both albums & i'm happy for cc's success but in an ideal world renaissance would've been the bigger album 2 1
