Smilers

This is just a conspiracy theory that kpop stans invented to cope. All the HYBE groups that does well on Spotify (BTS, NewJeans, LSRF, ILLIT) performs really well on Apple Music too. Total Days charting on AM Global: NewJeans - 838 Blackpink - 572 LE SSERAFIM - 566 Twice - 444 Aespa - 433 IVE - 365 ILLIT - 338 (still charting) the rest of 5th gen groups combined - 207 I-DLE - 41

Bey has a shampoo brand, a whiskey brand, two failed fashion brands, dynamic pricing for her tours, and i think she or Jay is attempting to break into the casino business too? Taylor has a bunch of variants for her albums (which Bey also has) and no other non-music ventures. The answer is pretty clear imo, but I wouldn't expect ATRL to be objective.

Wbk every main pop girl is money hungry . But at least Bey, Ariana, and Taylor fulfill the art aspect of it. They consistently drop music so the fans who don't give a **** about their products/merch/variants are still fed. Unlike pure capitalists like Rihanna and Selena Gomez, who stopped making music as soon they start getting bag from makeup.

One thousand dollars…for a PINE box 😭

This makes sense to me. The most famous woman in the world is able to keep her wedding completely away from paparazzi, prying eyes, and drones. It's been two months and not a single picture has leaked. Clearly they achieved the level of privacy they wanted. I can't believe yall are seriously suggesting her to rent a private island. It would be a logistical nightmare to flew 1000 guests there as opposed to the most connected city in the world. And if she did yall would be calling it "Epstein-vibes" or whatever.

People are gagging at the the YGNBG visual when he literally looks just like Yunhyeong Which is not to say Yunhyeong is ugly but why didn't he get any attention back then?

Godllit's longevity need to be studied You never tire of their songs

Another 10/10

one second ILLIT doesn't have their own distinct style, but now suddenly NewJeans is intentionally being dressed like them in the name of sabotage this fanbase is so goofy

Oh SlopM entertainment

This is cute The perfect way to wrap up the era

I usually ignore JP releases but after how good Almond Chocolate was (the perfect tribute to Lovelyz), we had no choice but to tune in.

And even Jungkook or Jennie had the sense to not abandon their VERY established groups. In case things go south, your group is basically your safety net.

This is truly the best Kpop song of all time JYPiss may be aestethically challenged, but he's a songwriting GOD

Old NCT music gets more and more unlistenable each day. Lots of bangers but you'll have to hear a rapist (Taeil), cheater and manipulator (Lucas), misogynist (Winwin), and now a confederate flag wearer (Mark).

oh Bom She's such a kii

Are they teasing Horrorllit?

Hot 100 entry: ILLIT - 2 SMent - 0

Heeseung really left Enhypen just to release that YungBlud mess?

It actually went #1 on the Billboard Streaming Chart and will still be top 5 in its third week, unlike Sh!tload which peaked at like #7.

Happy one year anniversary to the most magical comeback btw, Do The Dance >>>>> Do Your Dance

Cherish (My Grammys) you will ALWAYS be famous

What I'm getting from this thread is that: despite early prediction having Olivia behind Choosin Texas, yall are already assuming she would've been number one which means yall are fine with her her doing whatever tricks necessary to close the 20 points gap. But Taylor shipping some CDs makes her the bad guy Chun Li This is why swifties play victim, bc yall treat every other pop girls with kiddies gloves but don't apply the same rules to Taylor.

she has not mentioned that girl in 5 years
