Following the announcement of Doja Cat being forced to drop out of her summer performances including her stadium tour with The Weeknd. The tour has already been struggling to sell & many ticket holders have stated the main reason they bought the tickets were Doja. What can Abel due to make sure his first stadium tour isn’t a bust?

who's better speaking in different language? Xtina with Spanish Gaga with Italian ?

Doja cat’s Vegas is on the verge to smash… top 10 on Spotify. meanwhile gaga and beyonce flopped with 1b grossing movies. Taylor also one of our biggest popstars ever and doing meh numbers. Why?

The #1 Hot 100 hit is always hailed as one of the best pop songs of the 2000s especially on ATRL. But what makes it a great pop song? Is it the nonsensical lyrics? The production? The melody? The vocals? Discuss.

i mean, look at the material

Obviously there’s no way to know for sure so we can only guess but going by history, there’s always been at least 1 big comeback each decade. 1960s - Elvis 1970s - Bee Gees 1980s - Tina, Cher, Aerosmith 1990s - Cher, Santana 2000s - Mariah, Kylie, Green Day, Madonna, Britney, Nelly 2010s - JLO, Gaga 2020s - ? Who will have one in the 2020s?

I randomly started thinking about this today and realised that the two are polar opposites and have nothing in common aside from Jay-Z. 1. Rihanna has/had a very public rockstar persona, Beyoncé has a more strategised and private image. 2. Rihanna made predominantly pop, dance, and EDM music (with elements of hip-hop), Beyoncé makes predominantly soul, R&B, and alternative R&B music (with elements of hip-hop). 3. (Freudian context) Beyoncé has more of Madonna complex with her being labelled as the “flawless” woman with a husband, children, and “have it all” lifestyle. Rihanna is the opposite, literally a “bad girl” going against conventions and having a reputation for not settling for one man (until recently of course) and just being a “cool girl” in general. 4. Rihanna and Beyoncé in general just have very different careers. Beyoncé is her senior by many years musically, and even in terms of musical accomplishments they focus on two completely different things (with Rihanna being labelled a “singles” artist and Beyoncé being labelled a “album” artist). 5. This is more of a personal take, but even when it comes to physical beauty I think they have very different charms. I feel like Beyoncé has a very regal, understated beauty whilst Rihanna has more of a bombshell, model-esque beauty. It’s sort of crazy how the two are different in almost every way, and yet are constantly compared.

Indie singer songwriter and UK icon Dido has sold around 30M copies WW with only 5 studio album on her discography while Katy has sold 20M WW with 5 albums and Kesha less than 10M WW making both being beyond a singer that is very non talked by the GP and this forum… are you surprised by that fact? have you ever heard a Dido song? Or even heard her name in the streets or in the news? Discuss

now that June has ended and 6 months of the year have passed, it might be time to choose the best moment or most memorable situation of the year so far. You can find below a list of examples but feel free share your picks: - Demi gets back to her/ She - People insulting each other’s mom on Mother’s Day on the PITLBULL THREAD - the ADS spam all over ATRL - Hold my hand flopping / Gaga gets outstreamed by Katy - Amber Heard losing the trial against Jonny depp - Elephant kills a woman and crashes her funeral to stomp on her corpse - Ezra miller harassing an entire island to me it’s definitely the pitbull thread

I heard someone blasting this song in the car last night and i was shocked to see its unreleased i thought she released something new with some polishing.. it can be a BOP. agree?

iconic shade

I feel like she’s the hardest artist to pick one: I Kissed a Girl Hot N Cold California Gurls Firework Last Friday Night The One That Got Away Roar Dark Horse It’s seems like Gen-Z loves The One That Got Away the most, but Firework I Kissed a Girl Dark Horse it’s impossible to choose. What do you think?

Everyone thought he's over after Old Town Road but he managed to snatch 4 smashes after it. Why is this? Is he the new Usher? Prince? Discuss.

I don't have too much to explain, this image explains by itself. 1. Black looks stunning on her 2. It portrays the dark theme of the album so freaking well, I wish it was the artwork on my Spotify.

ARTPOP is Gaga’s third album and most legends go strong until their fifth or sixth. Her first two were massive, then it just crashed because of the handling of the era. The album itself is classic Gaga, and there were a few songs that could have been massive hits if they were singles like Venus and Gypsy. From picking the wrong lead single and abandoning the era after the album dropped with no more visuals except a random side project G.U.Y the year after, did this become a stain on her legacy? She was still so young and should have been dominating, and you could see the underperformance of the lead single and album affected her while Katy was having all the popularity, success and high budget videos

Encouraged by the overwhelming appreciation of his talent following his NPR Tiny Desk special. Next year marks his 30th year since he debuted. Looking back at his career, what do you make of it? Would you say he has fully entered his R&B legend territory and should be mentioned as a defining figure of the genre as the likes of Luther Vandross, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder? He has accumulated 9 #1 Hits on the Hot 100, 9 Grammy Awards, his voice is still as recognisable and as great as ever and his influence can be seen in 95% of male R&B artists that came after him. I’ve always felt like he is underrated by the music industry. Where is his Video Vanguard? His Billboard Icon Award/ Artist of the Millennium? Do you think he will be inducted in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? Should he? Thoughts?

One of the staffers also mentioned Luke Combs in the article. Do you think Rihanna and BTS will do +500k with their next albums? Who else do you see clearing the half-million mark in their first week with no bundles?

Lychee kind of came and went. Why? What’s next for the “Same Effect” chanteuse?

She should post this on her feed, 1M likes in 5 minutes

Which artists do you think have improved and got better with their albums? I would say Taylor, Marina and Gaga (despite her commercial decline)
