"This feels like the 78th best pop song of 1996."

But at least Nelly is a decent human being. Katy has none. She actually has all the money in the World that would be more than enough for her to have the best support/material to make decent music, but she ran to Dr Lupe. Nelly Furtado, on the other hand, is almost like an independent artist who doesnt have much budget.

Totally (I have only said it in terms as an artist (that is you comment), not as a person) and I love "Keep Going Up" (I must be the only one).

If this ends up killing poptimism for good 

 

OT: Sigh. And to think that 2024 is supposed to be great year for her comeback considering that her music style, imagery and iconoclasm is back in vogue. Dumb ass ***** 

[Cleanromantic]

And to think she can't even move on from this to another single because all of the snippets she shared sounded equally as dated . Even if an other song can work as single it'll still have Dr.puke on the credits... 

How is her team this dumb.

Dusting off my HP Inkjet 3552 printer and ordering a packet of 10 new cartridges from Amazon as we speak.

The fact she shaded Mariah for being a 'throwback' and now people are calling her a relic

Also embarrassing that they call out Katy Perry for being "fake woke" but than pit her against Lady Gaga. And ofcourse all the reviews are from men. 

Good to know everyone loves to pit women against each other on this forum. Toxic as hell and double standards far too much.

music videos views are actual streams....?

Of course but its impact is much smaller than a stream on Spotify for example. 

 

You need to stream a YT video around 1,5k times for Katy to get a dollar.

 

Spotify only needs less than 250 streams for her to get a dollar.

It's so funny how some of Luke's other artists have spent years trying to get away from him, waiting for their contracts to end, and then here we have Katy who could collaborate with anyone, voluntarily crawling back to him.

Katy was panned before, during and will be panned after poptimism. She doesn't have that kind of impact.

[Chiidish]

I was just curious and only read the last three pages (will have to catch up later) but my god  

 

can someone tag me with the BEST review that sums up the panning?

 

S/N: if I had everyone lashing like this I might quit or worse someone check on the American idol retiree 

[bjorn]

This is the CATS of the music industry

 

PANNED MESS

They're all ruthless but the Pitchfork review quotes the dying nun begging Katy to stop, that has to be it

Don't know if this was posted 💀💀

Hmmm. Let's tally it up.

 

Both are uncomfortable to listen to.

 

Both are uncomfortable to watch.

 

Both are vapid and likely the product of computers.

 

Both misunderstand the points they think they are making.

 

Problematic/egomaniacal producer/director.

 

Critical and commercial bomb.

 

 

 

I'd say you're dead on the money!

[Marianah Adkins]

The way the song is also getting lashed at the Youtube comments section  They usually kiss ass everyone there

Same from 2010s era, Taylor is having the biggest tour of all time, Gaga is the highest paid at Vegas and another blockbuster movie is coming, Rihanna is a billionaire with a global success brand, and Katy is... getting panned.

 

What a shame, Teenage Dream/Prism were moments in pop music history, but she choose to become a laughable act. It's weird that after Witness and Smile, I thought she would take her own mental health first, but instead she's doing everything to be unlikable.

Its like 2018 all over again indeed.

Reputation Tour= Eras Tour

ASIB/Enigma= Joker/Jazz Show

Fenty Beauty= Fenty etc

Witness= 143

Where are all the KatyCats calling Kesha an irrelevant flop that needed Katy for attention (in addition to vile insults about her body?). I don't see them.

OH MY GOD. Now they're all just tag teaming her at this point. I knew it would be bad, but not this bad.

 

 

 

Not calling her a fad, stupid, and straight up invisible in less than 5 lines skdjdhdhd

 

This massive tragedy is so getting 10 video essays on youtube later
