St. Charles

It's Peter Gabriel coded

She already went #1 and had the biggest debut week of the year. I think most people would be happy with that and move on.

That honestly sounded better than I thought it would

Her music all seems to be so extremely reactionary. Like everything is "**** the haters! you're all delusional! i'm unbothered! i'm keeping my peace! my face hurts from smiling! i'm such a *****! i'm the problem!" If anything I think this is what turned a lot of people off along with the dancers situation.

Disappeared around the same time as Rihanna. Interesting.

Who's even left? Drake Taylor and who else? Future?

Im not sure if this is quite it but when artists do these soft piano ballads they have a tendency to get really close to the mic, and it's likely a condenser mic which picks up everything. So the audio engineers have to take the harsh sibilance out with a process called "de-essing" which makes the "s" "t" consonants sound more dull and less annoying. Otherwise it's really pronounced and will feel like it's cutting your eardrum. Sometimes it can be overdone though.

If you take Hot 100 and Billboard 200 into consideration over the last 2 years, it would probably be Taylor, Billie, then Sabrina. I used to have a script that pulled and calculated Hot 100 + BB200 points. Maybe I should dust it off.

Lowkey dangerous. If the guy doesn't want people knowing about the relationship he could seriously hurt her or worse after a falling out to cover his tracks or just out of internalized shame. I have heard about a lot of cases like that. What's wrong with her? Lmao

Wait are you comparing global streams? It would make more sense to just compare US right? Otherwise Rap and Country will be over represented on this list.

Her fall off is normal honestly. We see examples like Taylor and Beyoncé who are able to have these 20+ year long careers but they are the exception. The normal career in the music industry for a pop star is maybe 3-5 years of consistent collabs and/or hits. Anything beyond that is a lot more exceptional.

I love Victoria Justice. People were too mean to her. She seems like a really nice person.

Oh I saw Gracie. But it was a non serious post so i wanted to give a non serious reply.

I appreciate that it hasn't come out yet

Maybe it was originally meant for DC and Beyoncé cut it solo, but they kept backing vocals from some of the other girls? Not sure how else it could be explained.
