daviddarko 144 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Stop the excuses Medonsters! The numbers are low and disappointing and you know it. Instead of false arguments, better you think what are the Madonnas-Team mistakes  e.g. She should have released the album when the leak happened or wrong lead single, etc  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic 1,098 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 You guys are argueing over a 1 day of sales prediction... Wait until Monday for an actual prediction or better yet, till Wednesday for the actual numbers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 The attitude in this thread is what feeds stan wars. Petty competitiveness. If you didn't like Madonna stans saying ARTPOP flopped, don't do the same. Be above it. Otherwise, it just feeds into this cycle of them coming after Gaga when she next releases something. And it's not just them, it's Katy's, Lana's, Taylor's, Beyonce's fans. The music industry is constantly changing, chart rules change and even Gaga isn't immune to the decline in actual album sales that has been happening. If you don't like her, just ignore her. If you like her, enjoy it. It is very unlikely we will ever have a pop star like her again.  The attitude of the Madonna stans on this site is what has feed this stan war. And I agree with you, their competitiveness and general negativity towards Gaga have been nothing but petty. The cycle starts when they set the tone. You are correct, the music industry has changed drastically in the past few years, which is exactly what was stated daily here back in 2013 and 2014 when the trolls and fans of others here were saying that a top 10 album and top 10 tour were "flops".  If you don't like Gaga, just ignore her. If you like her, enjoy it. It is highly unlikely we will ever have a pop star and artist like her again. See how that works.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Empire has been consistently been above her since the release of both albums on both Amazon and iTunes. It might end up being number 1. The only thing is IÂ don't know if those extra sales will get Empire to beat her 55k+ presale numbers.

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 ​and Barbra's numbers are pure album sales. The one 125k prediction for Madonna included TEA's and SEA's. Madonna's pure album sales numbers will be lower than Britney Jean's 117k pure sales number.​​ "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." -Martin Luther King Jr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iloveit123 130 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Both fanbases can be so freaking ugly, just waiting for one thing after another to jump on to put down the artist. It's such a freaking viscous cycle and it's doing my head in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 680 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 God so many Madonna haters. ​Really? The majority posting here are Medonsters. It's nothing like Katy or Iggy gets. I notice the same thing in the media and other boards. In 2012, people were more into hating on the b---hy Queen. Now it's like: "Poor thing, victim of ageism, she's really trying this time." But with less heat is coming fewer sales. Next era she might pull off an underdog image. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanko 9,860 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 ok... imma rent i was never a madonna fan untill i listened to her albums i mean i liked some of her songs but i was like yeah cool whatever shes been doing this for 30 years  and 100k is good when your lead single didnt even chart on hot 100 and the album leaked like 2 months ago  sure it's not as good as confessions but it's a solid album you have to respect her because im sure when she dies the world will really miss her and "madonna fans started it!@!@1@1@ is so stupid and childish  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
