charts discussion HDD: Sabrina #1 280-310k

[CottageHore]

These numbers are amazing. Idk what I was expecting, but definitely not numbers this big 

[taylorrrr]

People call Taylor hitless as if Cruel Summer isn't coming for the most streamed female song on Spotify 

 

Y'all really displaying 'crying behind mask meme' 

 

Grab on to that last ounce of oxygen because y'all really need it

Sabrina has officially left Madison Beer, Tate McRae, Renee Rapp, Gayle and Addison Rae in The Irrelevant Khias Department. 
 

The other Khias are still locked inside and it's mot looking good. there's almost no hope for any of them to ever make it out.

 

 

she escaped the khia asylum and claimed the president suite at the mpg mansion

[Blackout2006]

My initials prediction: 180-220k

My predictions after the release- 220k-280k

My initial predictions for the album were at 180k-220k but after the smashing of Taste and the album on Spotify, I raised it to 220k-280k, and 280k ended up being the bare minimum expected  I'm so happy to see her potentially cross past 300,000 sales, that is monumental for her. She is here to stay. 2024 has been amazing for the pop girls

I'm SO happy for her success, she f*cking did THAT 

 

She better win some Grammys next year (can she get a BNA nom even though it's her 6th album ? ), that will be the cherry on top of a massive and successful era 

She's eligible. Doesn't matter how many albums you release btw, it depends on the number of times you've been submitted for BNA (3) and she's only been submitted twice before, so third times possibly the charm for her

You'd think Taylor herself would manage to get hits 

Reading desperate coping posts like these makes it even funnier when she has the biggest female hit of the decade

happy for her

Taylor & Beyonce are not legacy acts and Sabrina, Olivia and Billie still do not have the gravitas, charting power  and media attention that those two have to be considered legacy acts.

Not when Beyoncé, Taylor, Ariana

 and soon Gaga all had #1 hits. Millennials are still heavily online and on streaming and driving pop culture.

Bey & Ari got their worst performing albums ever in the US (well discounting Yours Truly for Ari). TTPD without the McVersions is a sharp decline from Midnights and 2023 Taylor's hype, see Fortnight failing to be anything substantial as a hit. Gaga hasn't released anything besides a song that's 70% sung by Bruno Mars, a consistent hit maker.

 

Sorry girls, the millennial girls have had their time. They actually lasted very very long so it is impressive, but it is def Gen Z's turn in the drivers seat.

It's completely insane that Sabrina stans ALWAYS distance themselves from Taylor the minute she gets any success. When they were all about Swifties when she was opening the tour. 

[RoseBud]

 

  We all know that without Taylor's help Sabrina wouldn't be here but can we just move on please

[skizzo]

Really wasnt expecting these huge numbers

 

 

[AvadaKedavra]

Espresso did that  and knowin how to keep her momentum

[MardinBeksloy]

People being pressed about Tayblessing  unlike some of your faves, even before she smashes, Sabrina always have her own fanbase and been touring for ages.
 

At the same time, being associate with Taylor and performing to millions of Swifties did her career wonders, with her funny personality and consistent good music like emails I can't send, of course she would smash like this.

 

 

[Freakshowvato]

very demure very cutesy

[Klein]

I don't really understand why people are mad that we're saying she got more exposure thanks to Taylor. 

 

We're not (at least the sane ones) saying that she owes all of her success to Taylor of course, but it's delusional to think the Eras Tour + Taylor association didn't give her momentum. Taylor gave her that initial push of popularity, but she then perfectly capitalized on it by releasing great music and now she's smashing. 

 

OT: These numbers are absolutely incredible. 300k is really MPG level **** and actually, not every MPG have managed to clear that bar. 

[Mark Rih]

Eras tour definitely helped her momentum but if she was a boring Taylor copycat she wouldn't achieve this *cough* gracie abrams *cough*

 

Catchy bops, sexy image, fun personality and a healthy gossip exposure brought her to this level of success  

[KillingYourCareer]

Far more than I'd expected  good for her!

[Sad Serenade]

amazing numbers 

[BabyBenzz]

[dumbsparce]

I think you all live in a very small tiny bubble. I had no idea Sabrina opened for Taylor and I visit atrl daily. Let alone regular people who aren't pop culture savvy. Espresso became a hit the same way all hits do.

The way everyone from Ariana to Taylor and Olivia caught strays here

The copium from millennial pop girl stans in the dislikes is sending me. This is like Madonna and Mariah stans trying to convince themselves their girls were still main girls in 2010. Like bro give it up everybody has their run and end

You can't demonstrate facts to prove this because it's not remotely true.  Beyoncé's record is about on par with renaissance and 4.  Ari is generally outperforming DW and Sweetner.  
 

Taylor has the fastest selling album since 25. 
 

The fact that you are out here tying to get Olivia dragged is such trolling behavior.

This metric means absolutely nothing and is just measuring initial debut week sales. Taylor has been doing a lot of chart manipulation to cover up TTPD's underperformance but it is still showing if you are educated enough to know how to actually contextualize charts.

 

Week 18 on the Hot 100

#8. Anti-Hero
#10. Karma 
#22. Lavender Haze  
-BARRIER-

#37. ICDIWABH 
#54. Fortnight
 

Day 121 on Spotify

TTPD — 15.39M (31 songs + ongoing tour boost)
Midnights — 12.31M (20 songs)

 

 

So as I said, the copium this forum has to deny that the millennial girls have fallen off is crazy. Either you guys are clinging too much to your former youth to deny it or just have zero chart comprehension ability, most probably both

 

It is not a big deal, everybody falls off and the millennial girls actually lasted VERY long. They will go down as legends.
