discussion You are a FAILING pop star...

[uusagii]

Date a Saudi billionaire and flirt with tankieism

[Alldeezy]

Collab with someone big idk

[Pillz]

Lol it's always a great career move to mix in your personal life with your music, but honestly if it were really me I'd love to be a Jason Derulo/ Meghan Trainor/ Bebe Rexha kinda artist, huge numbers and no crazy fame

[HarajukuPrincess]

I'd have my meltdowns in private (with no one around) 

 

But I'd still be doing what I can.

[Gladiator]

I'd release a polarizing song and then become an indie pop sensation after that flops too and my label drops me, but my music serves quality so my fans pitch into my gofundme to support me. I start a patreon and release a new song every week, using the money they send me to pay for a producer before learning to produce myself and getting all the profits for myself.

[Mephisto]

Pull a Paula Abdul and claim I was in a plane crash. I'd use that as an excuse to take a break, during which I hire the best songwriters/producers to make a critically acclaimed album that would allow me to continue my career as a smaller artist with a dedicated fanbase.

[Phaunzie]

I will do a full career sxicide where I am so controversial, my career becomes infamous. A Depraved Blaze of Glory, the trainwreck that I unleash onto the world. Starting out with a very controversial song about cocaine (produced by Dr. Luke and Ayesha Erotica of course), then music video so nefarious where I wear Prada and walk on water and lastly, an interview so messy that no guest will be as memorable as me. 

 

Then, do a Mariah 2016 through a free performance in Times Square.

I would have a Britney style meltdown with bald head and everything.
Have depressive and sad social media posts and make them relatable, so i get some sympathy.
I also have a sex tape and a my druggie moment. Big scandal
Then dissapear and make people worried. Just go to the woods. 
Then the paparazzi take pictures of me in some sort of cult and people get more worried and i get more controversial
Then 1 year later my comeback album with a safe prude image. Look how i changed. Im shining. Phoenix rise from the ashes and it comes with a memoir of what happened.  Expensive videos and hitmakers

I would release a sex tape, then show my h*le on Twitter and go trending WorldWide. After that I would make an album called "F*CKED". Then garner a couple #1s and some top 5s, and inevitably win AOTY at the Grammys.

[JT55331]

I would date a high profile actor or pop star and make sure I hit all the popular paparazzi spots (ensuring my manager phones TMZ in advance for the first kiss exclusive) to maximise media exposure. Whilst the relationship gets some traction in the press, I would get my management team to start leaking gossip and stories of relationship troubles - i'm thinking a cheating scandal with my PR team working to make me look like a victim. Targeted tiktok influencers would then be paid to create videos on the scandal, in the hope one or more will go viral. Meanwhile I dash to the studio to work with Max, Finneas and Timbaland on an experimental 2000s nostalgia pop record with an autobiographical focus to the lyrics exploring relationship themes of trust, love and heartbreak. 

 

Then after a few months, news breaks: the relationship is over. Mystery clouds whether the cheating rumours were true…. I've gone social media silent before clearing all my posts.

 

I use the moment to reset, the previous album campaign ends with a post on instagram announcing a new single in a weeks time: 'laugh or cry ft. ariana grande'. Via Tiktok I share a snippet of the track along with video teasers. On the release for the single, I drop the video along with the suprise album. My management team pay any outstanding budget on spotify playlisting & radio payola.

 

& if I flop after all of that, I accept my fate and retire 

 

 

[ACaseOfBlues]

Assuming my first two albums were successful, I'd probably have made enough to be set for life. So I'll just accept my status as a has-been and retire.

[JonginBey]

Flop in peace but also sue the label for kicking my dog so I can be well off.
