Feanor Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Just now, suburbannature said: The way you snuck in that last sentence Are you suggesting there's another female artist with a better performing and more remembered set of albums than Taylor Swift? Cause if so, please name them so that we can compare how many entries they have in the OP, or how many albums they're currently charting on the BB200, or how their respective 11th studio albums performed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause if so, please name them so that we can compare how many entries they have in the OP, or how many albums they're currently charting on the BB200, or how their respective 11th studio albums performed. Firstly, I thought you were joking because if you really think Taylor has the most "iconic" female discography or that iconic discographies are decided by chart weeks?? And it's the steaming era, babes. Albums stay on the chart longer. That doesn't make them more iconic pls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's the steaming era, babes. Albums stay on the chart longer. That doesn't make them more iconic pls You can delete all of Taylor's streaming era albums, and she'd still have more entries here than any other female artist. Sure, streaming has made it easier for albums to chart longer, but 1. Taylor's albums had already been longevity monsters before streaming so this isn't something that has occurred in the past 10 years only and 2. Where are all the other female artists doing the same thing then? And fortunately for Taylor, it's not just chart weeks she's excelling at, given the fact that her catalog of albums have sold over 100M units to date, or how 'TTPD' is about to become her 10th album with over 5M units this week. She has the perfect mix of albums that are highly consumed and relevant over the years, and she still manages to deliver blockbuster albums 18 years into her career, which is difficult to achieve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Swifites so much. The defensiveness and gymnastics are always good for a giggle - like who said anything about her sales or that it was what made a discography iconic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You: 50 minutes ago, suburbannature said: if you really think Taylor has the most "iconic" female discography or that iconic discographies are decided by chart weeks?? Me: gives an answer that explains how I'm considering more than just chart weeks. The supposed gymnastics being… an answer to a question that was asked. ATRLers are so predictable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
