Liafen Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 The fact that the tour slowly sells out so people will need to buy the album

Goals tbh Proof that these things are not what matters at the end of the day. Pink's power is entirely based on her music, talent, and performances. Tabloids and social media will make you an interesting pop culture figure but at most, those should be extra add-on things to your career like in Bey or JT's case (who also have crazy selling power because of their music, talent, and performance skills, but make tabloids go crazy too). If you're primarily defined by your social media power but music success doesn't match, then you're not doing it right and need to rethink things.

Godele Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 OMG!!! Some of you are trying iT with the tour bundles excuse. None of the recent females who used the same tactic achieved even half of her sales. Plus, i'm sure if they were paying for a tour ticket, they would have bought the album anyway.
Clean Bandit Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Who would have thought 2017 would be P!nk's year. Talent is a wonderful thing, its power never ceases to amaze me.

Revenue is literally the reason BB counts albums (or claims to). 2 minutes ago, Ryan said: “With ticket bundling” Youre spending MORE for a concert ticket and the cost of the album is built into it. How is this a bad thing? Lol. That means there’s demand. Bitches don’t even wanna spend $9.99-11.99 on iTunes for new music, buts an issue when people are spending $50+ on tickets and getting an album too? I don’t get it @iHype. has explained this well in the past. Imagine U2 going on tour (literally the biggest touring act of all time) and with every ticket came a free song. Because U2 tickets are so popular, that song, if counted towards the H100, would probably go top 10. But no one would know the song unless they're diehard U2 fans who want to hear it. Albums are the same thing. Not to mention, pretty much everyone streams nowadays. If they want to listen to the album, they're probably already paying for a service that allows them to.

"They went to the concert, clearly the demand to hear the songs are there!". Record labels don't make money off of ticket bundles.
yonka Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 P!nk's success has aged so well and the album is so good. Very proud of this. Would love to see this hit the 375 SPS:)

Fake news. iHype is like 17 and doesn't know what he's talking about no shade. The ticket has the cost of the album and the label gets the FULL $$$ from it. And people have to REDEEM the album, it's not automatic. Its marketing, literally everyone does it now. It's the new normal so get used to it. Edited October 14, 2017 by GreasyBruce

The trinity from the 00s generation that stood the test of time is JT, Bey and P!nk only

Cap10Planet Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 I'm happy for P!nk. She has proven her longevity.

Javan Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Ok. I didn't know a bundle was involved. That makes the numbers a little less astonishing tbh. But good for her. I'll wait for the 2nd week sales before I say too much.

TattooedDreams Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Imagine a touring force like Gaga doing a ticket bundle with sold out stadiums
