I feel like nobody who's ever tied or surpassed Mariah's record has actually had an MPG-level career from it They just represent a sound that was trending at the time. We aren't still talking about Luis Fonsi or Lil Nas X.

This might be the first time I've seen a zionist accusation where the person actually directly referred to themselves as one christ

Overly serious answer: On Gaga's side: The song was leaked for a month & was being overplayed before release. when it came out, there was fatigue and audience reception was worse than when it leaked (and still is) The video was notoriously a disappointment #ThankYouApple The song still peaked at #5 & then it got eclipsed by Rain On Me, which was a much bigger hit On Beyonce's side: Also an old leak, but old enough for the average person to either not know or not remember It's her first single in 2 years & she hasn't released another It (+ B'day 20) is being marketed in a way that matches the Acts, playing on people's impatience for Act 3

Maybe you'd better listen to somebody else then. Sabrina's not an electropop artist. She's clearly positioning herself as more of a zillennial Dolly Parton with the girly country/synth vibe, and Jack's production is working for that

Hannah Montana has childhood nostalgia bias for most pop fans, and Miley growing up was subject to a lot of public scrutiny and alienated a lot of people. It's really that simple There's no reason that Meet Miley Cyrus should have a lower user score than the early Hannah albums, other than it being obscure enough that people don't have the same nostalgia bias for it

Because someone making a hyperbolic insult on Stan Twitter is not news Thread only existed as bait to complain about Swifties anyway

She looks very pretty here. I will pretend her date and the event subject don't exist

The one made by a renowned musician and not just a TikTokker with hyperpop cred

Yeah, I do believe the Debutation pairing means something, but I don't think it means same day release. She was also hinting at Speak Now and 1989 as a pair for a long time, and the outcome was them being released 3 months apart with identical announcements on the same tour

I love Taylor, but it has REALLY become a pet peeve for me whenever people rewrite history to associate "era" with Taylor, say that Swifties originated it, or even say that she's the definitive example of having them. (I would personally argue that Gaga has the most distinct eras.) Even in a recent lawsuit (which Taylor deserved to win, don't get me wrong), her attorney pointed out the use of the word "era" as an example of something distinctly related to Taylor Pop fans have been using that word in that way for 1-2 decades at least

Love Me Right is one of the most generic songs on the album though I feel like it'd be ignored by fans if not for the bonus track exclusivity

This collab makes sense, but also why Danceteria specifically The lyrics of that song are extremely specific to an era & scene that Charli wasn't around for. Unless we're about to get a Charli verse about PC Music associates or something

Poptimism doesn't really interact with how Olivia is perceived I feel like she actually appeals more to people who hate girly popstars i.e. Taylor, Sabrina. She gets more credibility because of rock/alternative associations, in addition to rivalries with those exact 2 artists.

Can Roc Nation's contract with the NFL please end already? I'm tired
