Fake news, So close to smash has sold more

The tariffs affected the economy of every country. Nothing makes Canada special on this matter. I live in Canada too, and no one cared. The backlash was from chronically online people who already have an unhinged hate boner against her. No one who has bills to pay and real-life problems cared that Tate McRae did an ad for NBC and mentioned the US team. And she made Junos history a few weeks later, so clearly the Canadian music industry didn't care either. At least you're self aware.

Yes he was. There were tariffs on UK imposed by Trump at the same exact time as the Canadian tariffs. And trump is a threat to every sovereign nation in the world. Thanks for demonstrating once again that no one actually cares about these issues until it's time to weaponise them against a pop girl you don't like.

They prove that Tate has specific input into her music. She's given detailed production notes. She's writing lyrics herself. She wrote greenlight entirely by herself. Amy Allen, Ryan Tedder, Julia Michaels have all said Tate is a lyricist and a melodicist, and she's in the driving seat of her songs. And what exactly is her specific involvement? What is her exact contribution? She said herself she went to Colombia with nothing but colours and vibes and visuals, and was signed with zero music. Tate was 14, meeting labels for the first time with multiple solo-written songs to her name. Another subjective and delusional claim. Addison has plenty of shallow, vapid and empty songs. If you really want to go there, Tate has far more meaningful songs than Addison. Purple lace bra, chaotic, Want that too, Calgary, Nostalgia, She's All I Wanna be. Pretty much her entire discography before greedy. Ok, and purple lace bra is about being treated as a sexual object in relationships and by the media, want that too is about being taking advantage of by the industry, hate myself - self-hate and insecurity, she's all i wanna be - jealousy and insecurity, horseshoe/go away - finding success and still not being fulfilled, revolving door- being trapped in a toxic cycle in relationships. Speaking of sex, isn't that what Diet Pepsi is about? The music video is also her literally selling sex and appealing to creeps with a foot fetish. And the nerve to speak on profound lyrics when these are Addison lyrics -"love New York, love New York", "money's everything", "when it comes to shoes i'll be a sl*t". How profound. And that makes her work deep how? Her entire career is built on referencing and cosplaying as some kind of artiste and basic gays fall for it. Tate doesn't have to curate a fake persona to appeal to pretentious gays.

Everything you've said purely delusional, but this especially is the height of delusion. Between the two of them, Tate is the one who is involved in every single aspect of her artistry. If you lock both of them in a room with zero collaborators, only Tate is capable of leaving that room with a fully written, recorded song and music video. Tate has written songs entirely by herself, directed and written creative treatment for her music videos, done her own choreography, and shot multiple music videos by herself. What can Addison do by herself? What makes her an artist when she can't write, sing, or produce music? This is exactly why the GP constantly rejects Addison. Her stans and her team keep trying to push the narrative that she's an artist, and absolutely no one is buying it. Anyone with a brain can listen to both of them talking about the creative process and see that Addison has zero actual contribution compared to Tate

Right. This is Tate at age 13 doing one of the hardest variations in ballet on pointe. And ballet isn't even her strongest style of dance. I think people who've never stepped into a dance class before are in no position to speak on her dancing.

This delusional revisionist history take as always. You Broke me first exists. 2 billion streams, most streamed female solo song of 2020, and it was released 7 months after Tate was signed. It's been two years since Addison's debut and she doesn't even have a US top 40 hit

Because Tate is successful without desperately trying to pander to the millennial gays, and they can't stand the fact that they are no longer the arbiter of what is successful. I genuinely think millennial gays on Twitter are in denial that they are old and no longer shaping pop culture. That's why the artists with huge gen z/gen alpha following get hated by them.

Meanwhile, bitter millennials are still doing think pieces about why she'll never make it. It's so funny to me how people keep denying she's happening.

Run for the hills still doing over 400k streams as an album track from a 2023 album is kinda insane. Some no 1 hits are doing less. Same with siren sounds doing over 500k as a bonus track.

Yup, even YMBF was still doing over 1m streams in 2025. It's not just the big songs either, some of her album tracks that catch on - that way, run for the hills, siren sounds have insane longevity. She's honestly a streaming monster if we're being real; with only 2 mega hits to her name, she's about to reach 20 billion streams.

Her biggest market is Australia and NZ in terms of chart performance. SCTW is top 15 currently in both. Obviously it's the US in terms of the proportion of her streams/sales coming from there, but this is true for virtually every pop girl. So it's not really a situation of being local to North America. SCTW was actually the first time she did better in US than Europe.

SCTW has 13 songs with over 100m streams. But ATRL told me she has no fanbase, so how is this possible?

This smash album. Multiple album tracks are platinum eligible.
