Taylor fanboy Posted October 22 Posted October 22 With back to back global monster hits, is he ushering the comeback of male pop domination or will he have a shaky start on his solo music?
terrijoe Posted October 22 Posted October 22 God no. He's so boring. All the men are not men anymore. Just give us fem top gays and women 8
blondeskinnyrich Posted October 22 Posted October 22 what's up with that 'male domination' again? are we forgetting that both of the songs are collabs with women? 3 1
Wicked Posted October 22 Posted October 22 I don't care which gender hits the charts as long as the music isn't basic, which, considering before this year they were extremely basic and boring which they have been for years now... means nothing will change 1
Princess Aurora Posted October 22 Posted October 22 Well, the men have been topping the charts in the US for a while but the genres aren't related to Pop music. 4
ChooseyLover Posted October 22 Posted October 22 So we're going to act as if Tipsy hasn't been #1 for the whole year, sis? 6
laqqinq Posted October 22 Posted October 22 Maybe the comeback of male chart domination from (primarily) pop (as in mainstream and pop) artists. Men in country and hip hop have had a great year on the charts. But in Bruno's case, it is too early to tell. DWAS has been greatly successful, topping Global Spotify almost every day, and hasn't left the top 10 on Hot 100 since release. And APT. is also now #1 on Spotify and going top 10 next week. Both singles are successful but both are Bruno's singles. One artist having multiple hits does not actually mean a resurgence, or does not carry it all, for an entire sex, genre, or type of music/artists on the charts, in my view. We would need more men in pop to have hits, to call it a resurgence of pop domination from men this year. But aside from that, it has been a year of male and female chart domination, across a lot of genres (country, pop, hip hop mainly). For example, multiple women found success on the album and single charts with their releases this year. If only Taylor or only Ariana or only Sabrina or only Chappell would've scored hit albums or hit singles, it wouldn't have been a collective "female chart domination". Even if Taylor alone would've been the only one with a successful album with 15 weeks at #1, it would've been Taylor chart domination, not for/from all women in music. Multiple artists are required to have success on the charts for it to be seen/considered as domination from a collective (genre, sex, country-wise, etc.) 1
