TayDine1989 Posted May 18 Posted May 18 (edited) 1 day in and thr narrative control is already here Everyone cares about a number one please hence the variants and the splattered covers scheme. That doesn't mean the album is not great though cause HIT ME clears her first two albums but to say you don't care about numbers is a joke. Spoiler And its so funny they'rr having meltdowns already over these new versions of an album that has already sold at least 2M pure copies Edited May 18 by TayDine1989 5

TouchinFree Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Well it really don't matter since we know who just served one of the best albums of all time. 1

newaespa Posted May 18 Posted May 18 7 hours ago, The Music Industry said: "I don't care about numbers lolz" while still releasing 15 variants, merch bundles, luck-of-the-draw signed albums and paint-splashed CDs... It's the hypocrisy and weird contradictions for me but she really don't care about the numbers she is only releasing those ECO-FRIENDLY variants to end global warming 5
chiliam Posted May 18 Posted May 18 7 hours ago, Lose My Breath said: Right, it's exhausting The industry that gives her AOTY over, and over, and over? Yeah... sure I think industry here is the management in suit men behind the scene Most artists and who involve in create music process at least will respect Taylor's crafting songs talent. And even with 4 AOTY, she is still not a Grammy darling like Billie, Adele, Beyonce like the narrative people love to push. She lost most of her other noms and never won SOTY after 8 noms lol. This is such a fun week. I like Billie album, just dont like her hypocrite vinyl comment. So she can take it or not would still be a fun outcome 😄
pinkdiamond Posted May 18 Posted May 18 The benchmark shouldn't be out selling Taylor in whatever week this is for her album. Billie stans have always said she's above her peers but I am not sure about that. If she doesn't top GUTS opening week sales that's the real flop 1
Toxicity. Posted May 18 Posted May 18 This is an obvious PR piece planted by Billie's team who 'doesn't care' This chart 'battle' will only help both of their sales. 1

I can't remember a chart battle I've actually been interested in for ages. Yes! Thank you Billie and Taylor for bringing back FUN! 3
Iñakifan Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Didn't she have, like, 12 variants? I love the album and I love her, but girl, cmon... 1

Reminds me why I used to hate her. The way she tried so hard to look like she didn't care about her image but that was a contrived persona in itself. If you're trying that hard to control the story, you obviously care what people think, don't pretend you don't? Her brand is weird & makes no sense to me lol... controlling the story... taylor literally reposted her revews. (but only the good ones). 1

ericcartman Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Billies team is already planting the "I don't care about success" and "I didn't promote" narrative. I guess when they picked the date they didn't think Taylor would still be battling for #1.
pride4jc1222 Posted May 18 Posted May 18 I'm still salty about HTE blocking Planet Her from getting the #1. I actually wouldn't mind TTPD staying at #1 this week to return the favor.
CovalentBondage Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Billie out performed every song Taylor has ever released with this album. She's solidified herself as a music icon. I doubt she cares about Taylor. 1

Polgg48 Posted May 19 Posted May 19 the cold war turns into one of those interesting shift within music industry, narratives from this week onward would impact grammy results and diverse general listeners to finally accept the changes. not on roar applause level but significance to be talked in twitter/board for a long while.

Which are coincidentally the only ones to have attended The Eras Tour along with those musicians close to her Girl absolutely nobody gives af, nor gave af. GOSH y'all look so d*mn embarrassing!
