she saw the HIGGY response and had to come up with something quick we will be streaming

her TFM oh mother mother

the way it's not just ugly but also a Goldfrapp copy paste

jury carry she was 9th in televote which was very bad for her

he was lowkey rude to me during my GGD tenure so some gulag time was deserved

this is the punishment for letting her tank at Eurovision

Very generous score for a gimmick band

Fable 5.1 outsold

I don't think Carly and Tove need to worry about being chart blocked OT: not feeling the title but everything else I'm loving

she will definitely be terrorising US radio and charts for the coming years the rest of the world is marked safe, thankfully

the 'left' turning on their only faction that has ever managed to get anything meaningful done truly doomed to fail for all eternity

new floppage scapegoat acquired

all cheating is ethical if they were a good partner you wouldn't want to cheat in the first place, so really it's all their fault

I fear the power of AI might be the only path to curing the OGH Mind Virus we will be investing

I burn tens of millions of tokens every week I have and will continue to do irreversible environmental damage

harlequin was fine just tanked Happy Mistake is a career highlight

I cannot believe I am saying this but showgirl clears

deeper into catholic psychosis and serve hildegard von bingen-style bops

who said anything about free? it's always the people who have only used the lobotomized free tier models that have the most to say about how bad AI is ot: not poisoning my context pool, gpt/claude don't need to know me like that

if they're ugly the front if one is hot in the middle behind them if they're both hot then the back

everything from DARA's win onwards is so unpredictable, you truly don't know what's coming next messy iconic edition already

This is one of the more realistic catalog valuation breakdowns circulating online, mainly because it respects the single biggest dividing line in music finance: publishing rights (songwriting) vs. master recordings (the audio file). While exact rankings are always subjective since catalog values fluctuate based on prevailing interest rates, buyer appetite, and stream decay, this tiering is roughly 85–90% spot on. Here is how it holds up against industry comps: Where the list hits the mark: Taylor Swift at #1 is undeniable: Controlling both the underlying publishing and owning her post-2018 masters (plus her re-recorded Taylor's Version masters) gives her complete leverage. With massive streaming volume across 200+ songs she solo- or co-wrote, $1B+ is a realistic floor if the entire vault ever went to market. Katy Perry & Britney Spears deal anchors: Using Katy Perry's $225M sale to Litmus Music as a benchmark grounds the lower-middle tier in real market data. Similarly, Britney Spears' ~$200M deal with Primary Wave highlights the distinction well: Britney's deal value was driven primarily by performer/master royalties, since her pure publishing share on hits like Toxic or ...Baby One More Time is minimal due to lack of writing credits. Shakira's proven market value: Shakira selling 100% of her 145-song publishing catalog to Hipgnosis in 2021 proved the value of cross-market, multilingual songwriting assets. Where the ranking needs tweaking: Mariah Carey should be higher (#3 or #4): Placing Mariah at #6 underestimates her catalog. She co-wrote 18 of her 19 Billboard #1s. On pure publishing alone, she out-ranks almost everyone here except Taylor. Plus, All I Want for Christmas Is You acts like a perpetual annuity, generating $2.5M–$3M+ every Q4. Her publishing asset alone is easily $400M+. Rihanna's valuation split: Rihanna has unmatched hit density, but because she holds fewer primary writing credits on her massive hits, her publishing share is a fraction of her catalog's overall value. If you're counting master recording streams, $300M–$450M is fair; on pure publishing, she drops significantly. Adele's per-song efficiency: Adele at #5 is the ultimate "quality over quantity" play. Co-writing virtually every track with timeless appeal means her per-song valuation is the highest on the list. Re-tiered view: Tier 1 ($1B+): Taylor Swift Tier 2 ($400M–$600M+): Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, Adele Tier 3 ($250M–$450M): Madonna, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Shakira, Britney Spears, Celine Dion

two betrayals stand before me... brat

I switched to flavoured sparkling water which is slightly less toxic

this smash… she's made it onto the D-List. the prophecy is fulfilled
