CherryBay Posted July 23 Posted July 23 15 hours ago, Pop Fan said: The album is very stable but this era feels kinda underwhelming. She's doing good but there's not much buzz or hype for her as an artist. Taylor, Sabrina and Chappell are overshadowing her. She's not the main character in the industry atp. It's like Olivia vs. Taylor/SZA/Miley. 14 hours ago, Pop Fan said: Let's not ignore her massive autoplay on Spotify. Also, BOAF isn't even in the Top 10 on HOT 100. Her album already fell to #6 on BB200. She failed to go #1 on BB200 and HOT 100. She's not a relevant topic atm. She has not impacted the culture or the music industry with this album. 13 hours ago, Pop Fan said: -#1 song on Hot 100: #ERROR404 -#1 album on Billboard 200: #ERROR404 -DEMAND for a stadium tour: #ERROR404 -Multiple Top 10 debuts on HOT 100: #ERROR404 -Album variants: 10+ -Autoplay: ✅ 3
Scheissex Posted July 23 Posted July 23 (edited) Every time I listen to this I am shocked by how good it is It's easily her best album. Not a single skip besides Skinny I guess I have never truly loved an album by her. I loved don't smile at me EP and I used several songs from both WWAFAWDWG and HTE but I rarely listen to them in their entirety. Edited July 23 by Scheissex

Is this also because of that supposed autoplay? 🤔 9

To me, it's such a perfect intro to the album, and the lyrics are so perfect, so simple yet so touching. And that orchestral outro!!! CHILLS every time! I rarely skip it, but I do understand you have to be in the right mood for it. And that transition to Lunch is so jarring and fun at the same time. One second you're on the verge of tears, and the next you're smiling and singing about her lunch. LOL I love it! 6
commander Posted July 23 Posted July 23 That cult can't seem to cope with Billie having both SOTY and AOTY
Green Posted July 23 Posted July 23 The fact that the next #1 album (after Stray Kids free falls) could be doing around 75k-80k but Billie's masterpiece was blocked while doing 340k Do something Billie (it needs to be done in the next 3 weeks before Posty and Sabrina's albums) 2
bad guy Posted July 23 Posted July 23 Her team needs to put out more vinyls and physicals in general. It felt like they had excess for HTE because they were banking on it being a smash after WWAFA. But because the album underperformed at first I think they severely underrated how successful HMHAS was going to be and didn't make enough The era so far is strange because the rollout was very planned and great but after it dropped it feels like nothing is happening. HTE at least had pretty solid promo and she was out there booked and performing constantly. They either had no clue the album would do this well and didn't want to invest as much promo into something they were unsure of, or they always just wanted to let the album do its own thing. I'm glad this album is smashing but as a fan I'm kinda bored This would have been such a good visual album too with how the songs flow. 11

I'm glad this album is smashing but as a fan I'm kinda bored This would have been such a good visual album too with how the songs flow. Let me just say -- I've been keeping track of her vinyls since the release, and I noticed a majority of her variants (all of the colored vinyls on her site) have been out of stock / on pre-order since early JUNE. To me that's a sign HMHAS outsmashed their expectations and left them scrambling to produce more copies. Very curious to see what happens in August when the new copies are available to ship. As far as promo goes, I agree about the lack of performances. A part of me thinks Billie/Interscope wanted to let the album do its thing and then go hard on promo for awards season. But I still wish she could give us a high budget VEVO performance or more visuals. She's just doing a lot of interviews right now. 9
wish Posted July 23 Posted July 23 Speaking of promo nnn I'm glad she's doing interviews at least. Can we get a magazine cover too? 3

Even so I think people are mostly going out to the stores and buying it. It's always out of stock or completely re stocked at my local target and is somehow predicted to sell 9k pure this week.
RoseBud Posted July 23 Posted July 23 I didn't think Billie cared about a number 1 album position OR making all these variants ? Why all this desperation ? Lets just enjoy her music please. 4

I'm glad this album is smashing but as a fan I'm kinda bored This would have been such a good visual album too with how the songs flow. To me this era feels "boring" because we have no standout visuals. Just black hair and her always wear jerseys. Like… there's nothing standout (outside of the 10/10 album ofc) but yeah there's nothing to talk about. MVs are boring and have been for her for a while. No slay looks as if recent. No standout or noticeable hair or makeup. No wild performances. It's all just so boring. im glad the album is good because man… HTE was mid as an album for me but at least the visuals were so distinct and everyone knows blonde Billie was HTE era. Green Hair, Bright tomboy outfits - WWFA Blonde Hair, Femme Fatale - HTE Black Hair, sports jerseys - HMHAS Even when you look at the album covers, it's so basic compared to her first 2. I just don't like her artistic vision when it comes to visuals. 3

I think to me it's a great opener, but I'm never going to seek it on my own and play it on repeat like BOAF or WILDFLOWER. 1
