Billionaire

Most popular /=/ most beloved and I'd say the only cases where you could argue this is the case is if the person in question passes from a premature death OT: I was gonna add Sally Field, Rita Moreno, Reba McEntire, etc but not sure if Gen Z know them enough. Could argue Kelly for recent pop girls too

I feel like you could argue it was definitely Dolly Parton prior to yesterday, and the reaction to her death only further proves that. I haven't seen one negative thing about her on my socials and anyone who does say something negative gets ratioed to hell. Definitely the embodiment of a universally beloved legend. Her passing & the reaction to it made me wonder if there other female public figure anyone alive right now who is so beloved the way she is Cher maybe? Meryl? Julie Andrews?

25 years after Aaliyah's death too. This month is so cursed

If this wins the Oscar while having a fifth of the impact of WWIMF and Shallow then investigations need to be held

I'm going to start taking these deaths as these beautiful souls taking their time to leave this disastrous planet before things get even worse because no way

Will you be tuned in? Are you prepared for the start of the JCU (Jackson Cinematic Universe)?

Didn't know Dua made SOUR OT: Yeah but it's kinda in limbo after the last album

Debut song from the UK girl group out September 4th. They've been teasing it on their socials for a minute

Pretty cool to see a MPG make a political protest song, you saw alot of that in the 60s and 70s but for whatever reason it doesn't seem like many mainstream artists are speaking on the times through their music. Good on her for putting morals above charts

Maybe successful but Sabrina has never been a critics darling on the level of the other two so I don't see it being as acclaimed unless she does a reinvention

Wrong thread

So much about her having "no hit since SOUR" when clearly her album is the hit and is being consumed as a whole, which will only be further proven in 2 weeks when it surpasses TLOAS on this list

But but Amazon Music?1/!1/1! Deezer! Tidal!

Unfortunately this is probably their best alongside Gnarly

The way the 'no smash since SOUR' narrative is becoming the new 'BOAF is only successful on Spotify', Swifties will really just blatantly lie and expect everyone to go with it

Genuinely how is this shade? When I first heard Audrey I also thought she gave early Taylor and many others have made that same comparison. The millennial-esque purposely self-deprecating songwriting is very similar

VMA nominations were released today and out of boredom I chose to go through the major nominations. Most of BNA nominee's are nobodies but I can recognize they had at least a viral song charting on Billboard Hot 100 at some point or in the case of CORTIS, the BB200. I didn't know who Marcus Ferrell was so I looked him up, imagine my shock when I realized this is comedian Will Ferrell's son And on top of that he barely has 1M monthly listeners on Spotify and his best charting song ever was only #24 on the Digital Downloads Chart. He doesn't even have his own page on Wikipedia. The FRAUDERY Has nepotism in pop gone too far?

Resorting to VMA nominations cause YSPS ends MBF in talent, acclaim, and success

Most of the (reasonable) criticism is on their label who have a history of exploiting idols for monetary gain & ruin their lives if they go against that, not really the group themselves unlike with Britney so how is this remotely comparable Also anyone will say 5H, Britney, etc were all exploited at some point so these are truly the worst examples to be using in here OT: I'm so glad Manon left, imagine overworking yourself for some really bad music with very little input. I will say Hootie Frutti is a banger though

Phoebe is so unlucky smh, at least she has the UK

We've moved past the need for y2k nostalgia slop

Same fanbase that wants to go on coke rants about BOAF's imaginary autoplay when this is 10x more egregious

We need more alt R&B like Good Days or classic R&B sounding songs like Snooze from SZA I fear

Chart numbers are lower than ever yet userbase numbers are higher than ever. Make it make sense
