Her music up until Witness was pretty good and people rightfully are giving it a stream or two.

Because it's timeless. Simple.

imagine a Katy stan trying to come for Lana when her last album outstreamed Witness, Smile AND 1434547623

Girl you can bring up 1432 all you want, just pointing out that the same angle you're taking to drag Katheryn applies to Lana as well, even more so. You're a hypocrite.

Smile has sold more units worldwide than any record by Lana this decade, all is well over here. Hoping Stove does better than her last three flops , lol.

Tunnel has outstreamed Witness, Smile AND 143. Of course she has her massive albums, but people are still tuned into her recent works. This is evidenced by Tunnel having DOUBLE the streams of COCC and BB, so her streams are not on a sharp decline like Katie's. And even those 2021 mixtapes recently passed a billion streams, which neither 143 nor any of Katie's future projects will achieve. Thank you!

Not to mention, Lana's discography (and overall sound) is acclaimed and she is credited for bringing a new vibe/genre into the mainstream. So many artists list her as a massive inspiration. Katy's discography is PANNED through and through, and the only time people mention Katy's influence is talking about the singles campaign for TD, and that's more of a reflection of the label than Katy's artistry (though we have to acknowledge Katy's stamina during the TD era) .

Lol

Katy's catalogue will always sell well, that's what happens when you create multiple classics.

The way she's literally not selling

and even if the streams are high, didn't she sell her masters AND publishing?

thank you. Lana will continue being the bigger and better and more acclaimed artist, they can keep holding onto those early stats though.

She's boosting her catalogue to pillow the inevitable fall when she releases a new song

It's honestly funny to me people love her more when she's NOT promoting new music

The One That Got Away - 1 song = 1.5M streams

Bandaids + 143 (full album) + Smile (full album) + Witness (full album) - 45 songs = 1.2M streams

You can do that with any artist. I can easily do that with DWAS v artpop Joanne and Chromatica. What now?

I love how she's paid TOTGA dust (not on 143 setlist nor did she perform it at all during Vegas Play residency) and it ended up her most beloved song 💀

Katy Kat's, why does she pretend it doesn't exist?

She played it a lot on the lifetimes tour in the choose your own adventure section..

hopefully the audiences will stream her new music considering she doesn't make (much?) money from her old hits anymore!

Why would they be worried about the most successful female act in the history of their label?

Katy's Capitol catalogue sells millions of equivalent units a year WW for her label, regardless of whether she releases new material or not.
