Wicked Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 idk about the claim in the thread title but I do wish y'all would stop dismissing "the internet" in these discussions. Y'all on the damn internet. It's a mirror not a niche circle of the world. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuteboyzay Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 It's so funny how Taylor stans were the FIRST ones to enter this thread and talk sh*t. TTPD was big but girl it was NOT talked about in the way that BRAT is. And it keeps getting bigger. It literally doesn't change the fact that BRAT genuinely is becoming more culturally relevant than most of our fave's albums this year. And we love it. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khal Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 When you google "internet bubble", this thread title should be cited as an example. It is culturally relevant in certain spheres, but those spheres are the kind of people that the album was meant for to start with, even if they didn't buy into from the start. It is not crossing over 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceOddity Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 No, I thought it was clear we're only supposed to care about Taylor Swift and that shitty snoozefest she released from this year. No artist ever was and is ever going to be more important than her ever again. We should accept that and ass kiss her non-stop even in times she releases mediocrity. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Craig's list might be more apt Spoiler 💎 OT, this album just keeps gaining in relevancy and new fans found every day. so proud and pleased for charli! Ive been a fairly big fan since Number 1 Angel…. so I'd like to remind yall this album didn't just fall from the coconut tree, it exists in the context of all that came before it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltie Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 The people with Taylor Swift in their profile pictures in here acting like BRAT isn't a global phenomenon right now. Y'all want to talk about TTPD sales and charts so bad to mask the fact that BRAT is currently penetrating the U.S. presidential election campaign, is featured on CNN, and everyone (celebrities, politicians, members of the GP) is riding on the "Brat summer" hype, or is at least asking or curious about it. Heck, I've seen Twitter posts with their moms asking what a "Brat summer" is! Do I think Taylor Swift is culturally relevant? Yes, definitely. But you guys need to let Charli have her moment, for God's sake. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 The amount of people who commented in this thread and then kept returning to get back with replies at people who listen to Taylor Swift is alarming. I would truly like to be so much invested in my activities, but to be this much invested in something I don't like, I assume it would be overwhelming.

I don't think the boomers would be blasting this album. But there's a genuine curiosity and interest as to what BRAT is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Beautiful Tragic Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 It's a meme-album at best, I think it is somewhat culturally relevant among the white gays though - I guess that's something 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one outside of the stan world (so 99.9% of the population) would think this album is "culturally relevant".
