Dua Lipa. Somehow she's still around, but ATRL keeps downplaying her
Training Season is literally charting in top 10 global charts right now because of a viral trend, meaning the PUBLIC made her viral and not the label doing any legwork to boost the songs promo so??? OT: Because as much as Out-of-Touch-TRL hates to admit it, Dua Lipa is an MPG AND our generation's hitmaking machine. Literally none of her peers have matched her hit run

Troye's music bombing nuclearly. Has he fumbled his career?
Troye isn't even the sort of artists you associate chart smashers with. He's a very well-known and popular artist, definitely, but he hasn't had massive charters even with cult classics like Rush. Plus, more importantly, it doesn't even matter for him like it would for our MOG faves typically. He's down a way different path that doesn't converge with commercial success and it's so obvious with the risky and experimental sound he's pursuing this era.

What do you mean by Brat-adjacent? Electronic/dance music? Because you couldn't be more wrong on that since we've seen artists from the dance scene like Slayyyter absolutely blow up post-Brat and various electronic artists from the underground scene like Oklou, Jane Remover, Underscores, and Ninajirachi bubble up.

Beyonce would've def been dragged by me on the daily cuz I'd be a diehard Navy seal for Rihanna...But I'd secretly be streaming Sweet Dreams- Tyla's favorite VMAs moment: "Xtina walking down those stairs"

Wait doesn't this place it below THE Katy Perry '143' album. If that's the case, she has to pack it up man- Madonna & Charli xcx - "Danceteria Afterhours"
This is such a great remix. It feels like such a celebration of dance music because the lyrics showcasese two generations of dance icons singing about their first times getting into the electronic scene from its bloom in the late 70s to 80s (Madonna's era) till the absolute explosion of it in the late 2000s (Charli xcx's). It really shows how everyone starts from somewhere, and I loved how era-specific their references were (Charli mentioning PG music, Sophie, A.G. Cook).- Rumored tracklist for Britney (2001) 25th Anniversary Edition release

I'm so blown away by this project. I Like Your Look is literally the best song of all time.- How did ADELA end up bigger than KATSEYE in half the time?
That's not what I'm saying tho, I'm just saying she has an image or branding driven by a narrative a lot of people knew of before she released her debut album (Popstar Academy). An image is important for making an upcoming MPG a well-known act instead of faceless.- ADÉLA - 'PRIMA'
Why the HELL wasn't NastyDirtyGross on the standard tracklist, I'm so bothereddddd- ADÉLA - 'PRIMA'
I've gone back to 'In The Zone' so much after listening to Boys, it really reminds me of Outrageous and Boom Boom so much. Adela's taste is immaculate.- How did ADELA end up bigger than KATSEYE in half the time?
No? All of these girls faced being "faceless" very early-on in their careers because their songs were massive hits, but people didn't know them. Adela's first hit, Ain't in LA is tied to the image of her being a girl from Slovakia breaking into US mainstream music and her history as a a Katseye reject. She has a narrative, unlike Anne-Marie, Ava Max (𝚋̶𝚎̶𝚜̶𝚒̶𝚍̶𝚎̶𝚜̶ ̶𝚋̶𝚎̶𝚒̶𝚗̶𝚐̶ ̶𝚜̶𝚎̶𝚎̶𝚗̶ ̶𝚊̶𝚜̶ ̶𝚊̶ ̶𝙻̶𝚊̶𝚍̶𝚢̶ ̶𝙶̶𝚊̶𝚐̶𝚊̶ ̶𝚌̶𝚘̶𝚙̶𝚢̶𝚌̶𝚊̶𝚝̶ ̶𝚠̶𝚑̶𝚒̶𝚌̶𝚑̶ ̶𝚒̶𝚜̶𝚗̶'̶𝚝̶ ̶𝚌̶𝚘̶𝚖̶𝚙̶𝚎̶𝚕̶𝚕̶𝚒̶𝚗̶𝚐̶), mid-10s Zara, and Ellie Goulding.- "Fame is a Gun" by Addison surpasses 500 million streams on Spotify

- JADE names Blackout as her chosen Pop BIBLE, praises Madonna and Confessions I&II
I don't really see it that way, no...All of the girls who have mentioned Blackout as a heavily influential record to their artistry have actually translated it into their own music. For example, I remember hearing lots of Blackout sensibilities on Adela's new debut album and she has cited Blackout as a revolutionary album. I see it with Jade, too- Newly discovered insect species named after Taylor Swift
