Barely any tickets has sold besides the weekend it went on sales. The album did barely anything to moving tickets. Texas is struggling. Atl is okay, I am sure it will sell out eventually. DC (big venue for her), Boston struggling. Portland is soldout, she should upgrade the venue. SF nearly sold out. She should upgrade to the Masonic or add Oakland. Sacramento is sold out, she should upgrade the venue. Some of the price for some of the venues are quite pricey due premium/platinum tickets (there's a lot of them too, especially in certain markets). She could have sold more tickets. She needs to add another nyc date, one preferably on the weekend. 
 

 

Who is the person that usually have access to tickets sales. Can someone ask him about the tour. Since the VMA are not happening she needs some big promo. It would be sad if she would have to downgrade or cancel dates. Especially she doing the same venues from the cancel joint tour.

I think the biggest issue is she doubled some venue sizes and ticket prices are kinda spendy compared to her norm. When she just toured North America 9 months ago

Everyone go Request No Broke Boys at your local rhythmic stations! It's got 56 spins already on rhythmic

[right where you left me]

No broke boys, no new friends
I'm that pressure, give me my tens
Ain't no lie, ain't no shade
**** on me, then you know he paid
Looks so good, makes no sense
Bad ass *****, with my bad ass friends
No broke boys, ain't no shade
**** on me, then you know he paid

Will this chart on Billboard 200?

[SchmoodRing]

Yall need to stop worrying about charts if you're gonna stan Tinashe. She's finally getting her flowers. Let her continue creating and performing and let our girl be please. 

[SchmoodRing]

All I know is I want part 3 out by the end of the year and no more of this splitting albums in parts bullshit

We literally have a song on hot100 there's no way QB will not  debut on BB200🤦🏾‍♂️💔

Somehow worse than Songs For You and 333 (neither of which had a hit). At this point, it's fair to call out the fact that more could've been done to garner a top 100 debut. 

[Goofy]

It charted!!

 

SFY & 333 had better download sales, meanwhile Nasty carried this how much it could. Should've been released a month ago... also I highly doubt they reported the physical sales to Billboard.

Not doing merch bundles, Vinyls, Digital Album. Chasing Pop radio instead of Urban radio. Remixes basically nuking Nasty's hype. 
 

 

Really disappointing imo this whole non-chalant approach that "its just about the music" is stunting her baaad

 

They should've done pop up's, small shows, raves etc. Like they didn't even 1% of the marketing brat had

[MusicIsMyMaster]

wow i thought this was gonna be way higher

[hallucinating]

this just feels statistically impossible

This isn't really a shock tbh. She didn't capitalize of nasty like she should have

She didn't know nasty will be a hit and I doubt physicals and cds could have been  available at that time 

[Trip]

at least it charted, right? 

[ALA]

Yeah at least it charted  If this doesn't include any physicals it makes sense

[supaspaz]

How is this possible? This is brutal. I feel so bad for her.

[Alex]

actually so pissed for her that even her first viral hit in 10 years couldn't further contribute to more than 10k sales for the corresponding "album" release. This EP release strategy is really hurting her more than it is benefitting her btw. More songs = more streams & she's basically doing the opposite.

Ugh like they could have combined it with BB/ANG3L

[Tinashebanks]

I really hope she sees this as a reality check, rather than a I still get to create art moment….

 

Make an excuse for cancelling Greek Theatre too while we're at it 

[Flocon]

Well.

Kinda disappointing tbh, I was hoping for a Top 100.

 

Looks like everything went downhill once they decided to promote Nasty lol

[°ColdFire°]

Rather surprised by the placement on Billboard 200. Despite having only digital downloads, I expected its streams would have done more for the units, especially since the album was top 50 on Apple Music during the first week of release.

 

Another reason for the underperformance is the number of tracks that the album has, which is dramatically less than what SFY and 333 have.

 

Let's hope for another week on the chart when vinlys and CDs get sent out.

Short show (as expected at LIV nightclub). She did Link Up, No Broke Boys, 2 On and Nasty! Shook my hand, waved at me a few times and gave me lots of eye contact. Love her!

8K is that for both sales and streams? Did it sales only like 1k digital? She should have done that with streaming alone as at least. Not it doing nearly haft of Dopamine when dopamine was a flop with no charting songs. What about the sign CDs?they weren't reported to billboard. I am sorry,  with nasty attached and doing measly 8K is quite embarrassing. Every step forward we take we always take several step back.
