Ariana has been bigger than Gaga since My Everything. Nothing surprising about this. She has been getting hits consistently since 2014 and a new lead from her is almost guaranteed to go #1 everytime, whereas Gaga's usually hit or miss. Gaga has never had this consistency. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariana_Grande_discography#Singles

We need more artists to speak up

Yes, but this doesn't apply unfortunately apply to Taylor as the thread. I'm the biggest OTH and I pray for her downfall everyday but to say she has no impact is just showing you are out of touch or living in the past. The whole singer/songwriter cursive pop wave has been largely due to her (and Lana to a lesser extent). She has a huge impact on Gen Z artists.

"Some" as if there is any ATRL fave that can compete with 100 years of relevance and billions of merch revenue

I totally get the TF comparison

I think we were just younger and didn't really have a grasp of what 23 or 28 feels like. In hindsight, they were both very young for the career stage they were in.

Certification rankings never made sense to me. Why are albums and singles added 1:1 Granted, I think Taylor is still #1 by a longshot, but seeing someone selling 3m albums being below someone who sold 300k albums just feels wrong

You would be right!

If Abracadabra is a smash then this definitely is, if not a bigger one.

A pretty local ratio for a big pop album. Why did she not sell as much in Europe?

The delusional meltdowns from the millennial stans in here

I fear we need a Hot 100 revamp bc no way this is the most popular song in America last week or next.

MIA had a #1?

Of course Britney will chart. Her collab with Elton was a smash!
