She started the promo gaining 10M followers for that close friends thing. Everyone was talking about it and she announced the album that time too so it was very good promotion. The Billboards all over the world were also interesting and kept people interested cause nobody knew exactly what they were. Then Zane interview that gave the Chihiro sound that's been blasting on TikTok. Coachella Dolab party teasing songs. Rolling Stone huge interview about the album and photoshoot. Tour announcement and sales. Her not giving too much information and doing less time between announcement and release has worked in her favour too, keeping people wondering and wanting to know more. The Fortnite stuff and using that snippet of Chihiro. The hype seems very real to me at least, I see a lot of people that aren't even fans of hers interested. Idk how gp is going to receive it but I've seen positive reactions to the small teasers and snippets she has been sharing so hopefully they love it too. As some people already said she is not an artist that makes huge release numbers but usually has a lot of longevity and critic acclaimed albums. She is also an album artist more than a single artist so makes sense the no singles for the album too. And she is a streaming force there's no denying it the numbers she does with only 2 albums and 1 Ep and no new music for a while are insane. I guess we'll find out how it will perform in the charts in a few days but whatever happens I'm just excited and happy we're getting finally new music from her! Well put! 3
Gen Posted May 12 Posted May 12 Has anyone's vinyls ship already? Usually during the weekend before I get a notification for printed label or shipping and somehow HMHAS is the only one that hasn't compared to prior releases by many UMG artists 1

Both WWAFA and HTE spent 3 weeks at #1 so she makes huge numbers, just not a major Hot 100 force because of radio (we hate you Interscope). 3

If U Seek Amy Posted May 12 Posted May 12 The snippets of this have been so good. Actually very hype for this release 5
TouchinFree Posted May 13 Posted May 13 It's the 13th already in Australia. I think that means we get to stream the album a day earlier or it wouldn't matter?

popularmoonlight Posted May 13 Posted May 13 This album is 100% hitting me so hard. I can't wait for L'amour and Chihiro. 2
dreww Posted May 13 Posted May 13 Apparently there's a video filmed for LUNCH, fueling lead single allegations Not a terrible choice to me. I feel like CHIHIRO would be a better one tbh, it's already viral and clearly has the ability to do well on streaming/radio. Awards are also important to Billie/her management and I don't think 🥪 has any potential at winning something like record/song of the year. The hype is so real and we are getting so close.. I'm scared 2
dalladallamallamalla Posted May 13 Posted May 13 There is this celebrity "block out" thing happening right now and they're really starting to come after Billie but I believe she's been publicly showing support for Palestine and a ton of causes for years now? Kind of bad timing for her but hopefully it doesn't disrupt her debut too much..
valisari Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I have officially and successfully received tickets to an album listening party on Wednesday. Will review and give my thoughts <3 I am so excited. 6
badgirlriri Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I think they're not really going to do singles outside of Lunch, the entire album will probably be pushed and promoted and if fans really latch on to something else they'll put focus on it. 2
Dula Peep Posted May 13 Posted May 13 This is going to be huge I can feel it, will be her True Blue 6 1

Billie was one of the very few celebrities that was quite vocal and showed support in one of the biggest platforms in the world. She will be alright. 3

OhMyAlf Posted May 13 Posted May 13 Wait that new snippet got me excited, by no means a Billie fan just a very casual listener but I have to say I'm hyped to see what she brings with this record 4
