That X user who said her last impersonation was Katy Perry was right 

Wait..

143 on the Billboard 200: #6-#76-OUT (2 weeks)

The Great Impersonator: #2-#179-OUT (2 weeks)

 

We truly found our perfect boatmates match

[Radical Pessimism]

The decline is alarming! She's done!

[Azealia Banks]

Undeserved

[shookspeare]

why is everyone bombing this year 

[Musicmajor]

Just goes to show, without a HIT to carry the album, it's futile. She also had an interesting rollout (IMO) and it still didn't do much to hold the interest of the GP.

[Robyn.]

It's not a shock, she clearly relies on fan support nowadays, and they already did their thing during the album's first week.

 

There's nothing she can't do without a hit, and public support in the streaming age.

[Ivan_brit]

Ohhh that's sad, I kind of expect the era to flop after Lucky & Ego did not get the support I was expecting 

[Saud]

i love her and she's one of my favorite artists ever…but

 

the album doesn't have replay value at all, and it's quite sad and personal.

still proud that she put it out and made something beautiful after what she went through.

 

there are couple of songs i really love but that's about it

[Darlin.]

It's a shame. Her best album to date!

[shimind]

If streaming farms really exist her label should have invested in one for a month. So I blame them. 

[UnusualBoy]

I mean, all the singles bombed, this isn't shocking so...

No hit single = album not gonna chart

 

that's why we have girls start/stopping, promo single, push back, label trouble, etc. We ***** about it all the time but realistically….

[Raphy23]

At least it's stable

 

The album is amazing, it's not meant for the charts.

[AvadaKedavra]

Do you have a link  i wanna compare all the chart runs of my faves and their studio albums and to research about their decline

[Funnyfatty]

Do those people still believe in promoting a single before an album drop?  

 

I know there was a crazy amount of hype and big viral moments for this album but i have like NO idea how the album sounds. are they dumb? What is the lead single and where is the radio promo? 

[JoeAg]

the better her music gets, the worse it does commercially. figures tbh. great album, her best to date by far 

[NoOneDiesFromLove]

I know this doesn't have that much weight but, what was she thinking putting out Lucky as the first taste of the album 

[STMG23]

Impersonating Katy now 

[Lose My Breath]

The album is good, too, but it's heavy

[stars]

These bombs 

 

Albums are struggling in this current music industry 

[keshasfillers]

her final impersonation was katy perry

[zoldyck]

is this the shortest stay for an album that peaked at #2?

 

Crazy to think it tumbles down 200 spots in 2 weeks. 

[dumbsparce]

The Power album, while good conceptually, had zero catchy hooks which is the #1 requirement for an "alt" pop girlie and Impersonator is no different. I'll always check out her new stuff though bc I always find a couple of songs I can enjoy when I'm in the mood.

Well yeah most of the albums sales were physical from her small dedicated fanbase meaning that most of the people who wanna listen to it own it physically already so there's not much more sales to make to keep it on the charts.
