The only chart that shows you what's popular is the streaming chart. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're sending out a code for 25% off of the album (physical & digital), US only they're scrambling I like the competitiveness. May the best woman win.

MatiRod Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Ray of Light debuted at #2. 25+ years later, no one remembers that except for me and five other Madonna stans, instead most people remember it being an incredible, game-changing album. This debut is actually amazing for Billie, a huge rebound from her last record and shows she is truly here to stay. She could've been a fad after WWAFA, many such cases of promising teen superstars who fall off hard. Who cares who's #1. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 5 hours ago, Michael196 said: If they're really that unbothered, what's with all these statements left and right Because people are allowed to call out Taylor for being a chart obsessed moron obsessed with being at the top. It's funny how Swifties say she is just "playing the game" and other artists should step it up, when you should NOT want your fave to release **** just for sales and chart positions. That's exactly why her album was PANNED and no song became a huge genuine and lasting smash hit. You guys gassing her up and celebrating her pulling cheap ass tactics like all these calculated late shipments, exclusives on variants, etc. just because she sells a lot (and you have no actual accomplishments of your own) is exactly why you guys just got 31 dull dud songs. Despite the HUGE TikTok push she got, there was almost no virality from TTPD. But I digress, it's been obvious for years now you guys care more about charts than her music because it's been horseradish for a while. — OT: HMHAS is going to have amazing stability with all songs essentially viral on TikTok rn.

If she truly made a bad album that people didn't like then why is it doing 50M daily streams over a month later?? Just because you don't like something, it doesn't mean that everyone else also doesn't like it. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got fans rilled up to buy albums and stream while they and their labels get their $$$$$ which is the only thing they all care about lol. If Taylor was really THAT EVIL and PETTY she would release The Anthology physical CD's and this "battle" with Billie would be over in 3 seconds with 200k sales difference minimum lol 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry love, but how are you criticizing the album for not having a "lasting hit" when it's been out for WEEKS Like at least wait a few months and see how Down Bad does. Also, I love HMHAS, but I'm not seeing a "huge genuine and lasting smash hit" on that album either, so I'm not sure this argument works in Billie's favor. (That said, she could have the song of the decade if she pushes Birds of a GRAMMY ) 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandalore Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) Imagine taking anything @Gaiahas to say about Taylor seriously The humiliation kink you must have about her, always loud & wrong and for what?! Is Billie your new flavor of the month? Are you still an Adele stan? Who are you gonna latch onto next to make yourself seem anything but the perpetually pressed by Taylor hater that you are? Actually, please continue. Your posts age the worst and make the most hilarious copypasta. Ugh, it gives me that buzz!

Feanor Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 17 minutes ago, Gaia said: Because people are allowed to call out Taylor for being a chart obsessed moron obsessed with being at the top. Damn, does Taylor trigger you so much that you have to resort to insulting her? 17 minutes ago, Gaia said: It's funny how Swifties say she is just "playing the game" and other artists should step it up, when you should NOT want your fave to release **** just for sales and chart positions. Billie just discounted her digital album to under $5 in its first week. So it very much looks like she and her team are playing the game for sales and charts position as well, making it perfectly acceptable for Taylor to do it too. If she does it in the 5th week or 78125th week does not matter. 17 minutes ago, Gaia said: That's exactly why her album was PANNED and no song became a huge genuine and lasting smash hit. Except "Fortnight" is having almost the exact same streaming performance as "Anti-Hero". And I didn't know an album that's labeled by Metacritic themselves as having "favorable reviews" suddenly equalled to being panned. 17 minutes ago, Gaia said: You guys gassing her up and celebrating her pulling cheap ass tactics like all these calculated late shipments, exclusives on variants, etc. just because she sells a lot (and you have no actual accomplishments of your own) is exactly why you guys just got 31 dull dud songs.

But I digress, it's been obvious for years now you guys care more about charts than her music because it's been horseradish for a while. Sweetie, the only thing that's been obvious for years is your unhealthy obsession with Taylor Swift and your desperate wishing for her to have a commercial failure dating all the way back to 2021: On 11/25/2021 at 2:50 PM, Gaia said: I honestly can't wait for her next release. If it opens with 600-800k with her plethora of versions then I can't wait to bump all these Swifties. Because it will SURELY be embarrassing if Taylor can't significantly outsell her own re-recording with her next studio album. Very embarrassing indeed. No amount of trying to convince yourself that the album is full of dull songs or has no TikTok virality will change the facts that it has been received incredibly well by the public and is smashing it in every consumption metric possible. I'd suggest for your to come back to reality instead of living in your own dream world trying pass off your individual opinions as general facts, but considering how you've been living in your delusions for at least 3 years now, I fear that ship has long sailed. 17 minutes ago, Gaia said: — OT: HMHAS is going to have amazing stability with all songs essentially viral on TikTok rn. Hope her 2nd week is above 100k! TikTok virality for 'HMHAS' –> 100k units in 2nd week. No TikTok virality for 'TTPD' –> 440k units in 2nd week.

omrimayo Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 After 5 days to have your album at less than $5 to win a battle after the other album is out for 5 weeks… Yeah, fair fight. She really don't care about that number 1 I'm sure!! Such a joke. Congratulations for Billie for winning this one, the album is great and I'm surprised Taylor's team didn't do anything to fight back. Shame. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a shame Taylor gave up. Easily she could have won. Million videos up now with more versions and 4.99 album after 5 days, and the gap was never 50k to begin with, it was less, so Billie won, or Taylor lost cause she's not fighting back.
