celeb news Jelly Roll reveals that Charli xcx and her team manufactured 40k album sales

[mchl]

One of the straight locals in my friend group chat loves JR and I call it Jelly Hole to piss him off. 

[Bad_vocal_technique]

Wow this thread is crazy with the fat shaming. Suddenly all the moral virtue signaling is thrown out the window once your pop fave of the moment is targeted. 
 

I might start reporting just for giggles.

Atrl is not going to care because itʻs a beloved pop-girl but if the tables were turned...  

There would be think-pieces about how men always want to keep women down . I'm glad he exposed that FAD summer chick.

This forum really needs to work in its double standards 

 

Either you ban everyone fatshaming men and women or you just don't ban anyone

 

Banning fatshaming on women but let it happen with men is extremely extremely hypocritical and very unprofessional 

[okgo]

as if all of his sales were "organic" lol pls anyway every artist esp major label ones pull stuff to get #1s/better peaks during weeks they see it as a possibility only difference is Republic was likely able to #block hers by using some deadline loophole or we which feels quite shameful and misogynistic if you ask me

It is so funny how Taylor was crucified for daring to hug someone with a different political ideology, but when Charli does something far more insidious it is wrong to mention it.

Sis, he did not start charting in the US until 2022, just 2 years ago. I would not call that an established artist.

Hun, being an established artist has nothing to do with being in the mainstream. He has been in the industry since the early 2010s. Only when he shifted from rap to country, did he enter the mainstream. Before that, he was known in the rap & hip-hop spaces.

This coming from 1 of the most obvious industry plants in the game. Beyond the fact he has no receipts, I resent the phrasing of "Charli XCX & her team". I seriously, seriously doubt Charli had **** all to do with whatever numbers were reported

Not you calling Jelly Roll an industry plant with that Billie and Finneas avi 

 

[Julia Fox]

Oh she's such a BRAT

[Daddy]

I wanna see the receipt, I don't trust Swifties/racists.

What is that supposed to prove? The only thing I'm seeing from this picture is 2 artists who didn't need fraud to block Charli from #1

 

Oh Taylor Roll this American serve don't end the British like that

How can you "manufacture" a sale? It's not like it was a free giveaway or a super high discount like ANTI and Born This Way

Probably the pre-orders that weren't shipped during release week of those represses. 

 

If those 40k sales are true it's definitely just a technicality, aka reporting the whole sales number.

 

 

[greento]

this proves anything's okay as long as it's not taylor doing it, according to atrl 

[Cruel Summer]

I don't believe him, I don't care, and those 40k sales should have counted - and maybe then some. Justice for Charli.

 

[Prodigal Self]

[uusagii]

Oh I want to cuddle him 

[mons†er]

Wow, there's so much fatphobia and vitriol against this man when he only spoke about how shady the industry is. Remember this is his truth and he has the right to voice it. 

 

Really unfortunate how a lot of you are being evil and nasty because of your parasocial relationship to Charli XCX. Disgusting honestly. 

[Uncatena]

a bunch of twinks not being creative enough to drag a man because they specialised in targeting female artists they don't like so they have to resort to a man's weight... I'd say it's embarrassing if it weren't so predictable.

He didn't even mention Charli's name  He specifically said that he believes it was behind the scenes and not something that the artist did specifically

Gross, don't you have somewhere else to be instead fatshaming someone was right all along.

 

Anyways, it is ironic how some of y'all faves have suffered from eating disorders and been fatshamed in the past, but here y'all are doing the same thing to another artist. This ain't the 2000 bxtchy gay era and you are not Perez Hilton, pls stop it is unbecoming. #Be3008Not2000&late
