Do you know what retired means?

Obviously she was never a power belter, but before she could still sustain longer notes that weren't just talk-singing. Go back and listen to Speak Now, and you will hear vocal runs that surpass the 'vocals' in her current songs

Aside from the creatively bankrupt thing, it seems she can not really sing anymore? Anytime I come across a new track from her, she is basically talking with cadence, but never singing/belting the way she used to be able to. I think that aspect has put me off just as much as her bad lyrics nowadays.

Its such a bad song, I'm not sure it even counts as music

I don't think these polls are that accurate People wouldn't give an honest response to questions like this because they'll end up on a list somewhere lol

They really don't care about her at that label honestly

She made an album full of radio friendly songs and they sent 0 songs to radio lol, there wasn't really any other way it could play out with the level of promo provided

1 or like 5 songs a day, sure If it's any more than an hour a day, I would maybe want to kill myself tho, so would have to say no

A banging debut

I remember the production and mastering of the tracks on this album sounding very unpolished. I think even Your Body suffers from this - even now I prefer the sound of the leaked demo to the released song. Also not releasing the original explicit version of "**** your body" was a big mistake https://youtu.be/y3zCE-Wm0Bw?si=vKi8G5i75ahJdlHK

Is this not available in the US still?

Lmao at all these repeated US stats Abusers and literal killers sell/stream better in the US than they do in Europe, so this isn't surprising (e.g. see D4vid's recent murder single). Morals and ethics just matter less there Edit: sorry vermilion, quoted you by accident x

You have such obtuse takes in this thread whilst defending an abuser You're a moderator on ATRL, so I don't know why you're acting like you've never interacted with the news/media/social media, or even ATRL before Almost every single news article/website uses ridiculous terms in their headlines or tweets like "X person SLAMS y person". That is just the current state of the English language in our current society, nothing to do with race, and nothing to do with Chris Brown for sure. Like let's be serious here, I don't even know who you are trying to convince lol Shout it from the rooftops all you want, but you aren't going to convince people here that Chris Brown is a good person The moral high ground is never available when you are on the side of a serial convicted abuser and are actually trying to make him look like a victim...

Considering I was worried the tour would be entirely cancelled at the beginning, the dates have been selling well consistently, so all the dates are looking pretty healthy in terms of % of tickets available as they get closer to the date Considering the album's lack of performance, I would say the tour is a tremendous success and provides a a high level of comfort to the viability of her music career despite the lack of promo Bonus:
