They even admitted that they had no idea what the numbers were and they were "taking license" based on virtually nothing. I'm talking about raw AM US and Spotify US numbers.

As if she is making these decisions herself I thought "Taylor is a mastermind and calls all her own shots". Which is it, that or "this was her team"? Y'all switch the narrative more than any fanbase I've seen in all of pop culture, it's wild actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBeMe Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 2 hours ago, chiliam said: this It`s been so long since we had a fierce chart battle like this (the rap beef doesn`t count cause lets be real this is ATRL) I just wish Billie and her stans embrace and own it rather than acting like oh i`m so cool, i don`t care but actually care so much. We are all on a pop music forum, lets fight and have fun haha EXACTLY! ultimately this is supposed to be a fun and encouraged thing but people are treating it like if Taylor killed someone or whatever lol when Billie wants it just as much! (obviously this is Billie's debut week so I get her wanting the #1 peak more but Taylor is just competing like any ambitious person would). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariananext Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 6 hours ago, iHype. said: So after the Olivia fallout, and this now happening... what exactly is the logic Swifties are rooting for They want their 35 year-old fave to make 21~ year-old peers intimidated to do or say anything that isn't praising her. While simultaneously making her to be victimized and a generally sweet person within the industry? Slowly creeping towards Nicki energy. That's my issue with her as a fan, I just can't comprehend her behavior. I'm gonna paste something I said in another thread the other day, when all of this hadn't even happened. It's simple as that, she does many thing just because she can, and when you're that big I think you should also know your worth, your level and know that sometimes it's okay not to do things just because you have the power to do them, it's okay to let other people have their moment, but I guess that "considerate" attitude wouldn't have gotten her to this level. I love her for many things but mostly because though her lyrics she comes across as someone who knows human nature and feelings very well, and for the same reason I can not empathize with her because her behavior doesn't align with the type of person I perceive through her art. As of today, she's proven she's a great business woman, she's a whole billionaire with a 20 years career, she could do less and still be on top, richer and bigger than anyone, and to me someone who has all that should have the grace and the sensitivity to let her peers have their moment, which is becoming more and more impossible with her amount of releases + her fanbase behavior. At the end of the day, I think it's all in her Miss Americana doc, despite her infinite success, she still seeks validation through prizes, consensus and numbers, which is something most of artists do, but not to that level, and that has been transferred to her fans through the years. 7 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illuminati Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 (edited) I have to say as entertaining as this is, and as much as Billie deserves that one week at #1 spot, when Taylor was blocked twice during the Lover era after putting out remixes and stuff she wasn't out there pulling her hair out and just accepted that it's a game she lost LNX also famously had two billion versions of Old Town Road I hope in the end they can both laugh about this even if their newly bankrupt fanbases need more shifts time to heal Edited May 24 by Illuminati 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DevilsRollTheDice Posted May 24 Popular Post Share Posted May 24 (edited) Some of the essays in here ATRL also reinforcing the age old "you're old so get out of the way narrative" that will eventually befall all female pop stars. I can't believe how many people I've seen bring up her age. She can't fight for her chart placements because she's in her 30s? I suppose people have to reframe when they must cling on to a couple of years of musical success before slapping on the smile for clothes and cosmetics companies, but I'm glad Taylor still hustles and is continuing to supply iconic moments nearly two decades deep.

I'm not going to go back, but I'd be willing to bet the threads that had the most pages was the week when Juice Wrld passed and AIWFCIY went to #1, the Say So vs. Savage battles (along with the week when Stuck With U and Gooba joined in), Levitating vs. LTDO, and the whole Butter fiasco, first with G4u, then Donda and CLB. We really haven't had that moment of chaos since Donda/CLB. From late 2019 until Donda/CLB in September 2021 was really a wild time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CottageHore Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Taylor is truly something else how can someone who already holds more power and success than anyone else in the game be this concerned with frivolous chart positions a month after her initial release. Billboard needs to crack down on this because all someone needs is money to manipulate the charts with ridiculous "new versions" nobody actually wants or will ever listen to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Jeans Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Is there an actual incentive to go #1 on Billboard? Like is there an award or some payout to labels? Or it is just for a record? Either way Ursula Swift wants it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
