BorderBoy Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Mine released a couple of flop albums (well they didn't do as well as expected) and as soon as contract with her record label ended, she stopped making albums Lesson learned I guess.
Kayseri Mantisi Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Yes, on Solar Power after critic reviews all praised her songwriting & melodies but gave mixed ratings for production, she ditched Jack Antonoff and brought in Dev Hynes (Blood Orange) & Jim-E Stack for her upcoming album 7 2
Bloodflowers. Posted October 2 Posted October 2 My fave Vanessa Carlton made the greatest album of all time (Harmonium) after her singles post-A Thousand Miles flopped 1
Starshine Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Yes, she saw how The Gift/BIK bombed and said lemme have no visuals chile- out of pettiness.
ontherocks Posted October 2 Posted October 2 She just puts out stuff she wants to get off her chest. Sometimes it connects with ppl and sometimes it doesn't or it takes time til it does.
Punky Rooster Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Mine doesn't care too much about flops, she's only really had 2 in a 42 year recording career, but her artistic brilliance always shines through. Lately she's done a couple of one-off collabs for a laugh that she didn't promote at all, one which was dire and the other which got her back into the top 10 and made her cool again. We all win when she wins.

I do think that Beyoncé as a smart business woman thought she had overdone in the music videos department and saw how her videos weren't generating hype and clicks anymore with Black Is King and took a break from it because regardless of how loud the Beyhive yelled about visuals they paid them dust during BIK. And it was smart because now there's a bigger craving for any sort of music video from her than there would be had she continued to release videos off of Renaissance and Cowboy Carter. 2
ChooseyLover Posted October 2 Posted October 2 I don't really share this opinion on albums underperforming having to be a mistake to learn from. Most of my favourite records from my favourite artists have been far from the best selling of their careers. 1
GentleEarthquake Posted October 2 Posted October 2 No, my fave is not as chart obsessed like some artists and their fans. She only cares about improving her art. 2
Nightingale Posted October 3 Posted October 3 Kelly Clarkson never ended up making an album as dark and rock as My December 1
Kiss It Better Posted October 3 Posted October 3 my fave never really flopped but she just stopped making music and selling beauty products instead now

Nnn not Paulina I would argue she never flopped too terribly though, she just knew when to stop Mariah learned her lesson after Glitter and Charmbracelet (though CB is a beautiful album) I think she just learned how to market herself better to sustain her core audience. Gaga also learned from ARTPOP's underperformance.

As long as an artist is proud of the album they put out then it shouldn't matter if it flops or is a success past a certain point. The best careers ebb and flow commercially anyway. Now, if they are still new in their careers then obviously it would matter, particularly to the record label and their team but beyond that? idts. Artists should maybe learn from constructive criticism, not stats and numbers. 1
Alldeezy Posted October 3 Posted October 3 HE And sorta he admits that dropping a non rap album was cringe and said a evil demon jumped into his body It was a cute album but then he dropped one of his best albums yet this year so yeah However Allday, Jordan & Bus are ARTS before charts
