Memo 176 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Maybe because she's safe and Dr Luke makes her catchy safe generic productions idk :PMaybe if she wasn't with Dr Luke or in another label we would see another side of Katy, or maybe she would just do the exact same thing with different people :laughga: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Economy 48,098 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Shes also pretty and very likable to the GP. She also has a tone of non-hardcore fans who buy up all her singles. Rihanna for instance is liked by the GP but she has less Hardcore fans and as a result her singles either catch on or they dont Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

uo111 5,251 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 PRISM is selling like hot cakes though. Prism sold more than all of her female competitors except Beyoncé. 'Female' being the most important word here. More people still just buy her singles. She is still a single artist even if she can sell 1 million copies in 11 weeks(not that impressive compared to a lot of other music acts). It's very rare for someone to have 21-esque, or even Red-esque and The Fame/The Fame Monster-esque success. Selling a lot of singles usually means worse album sales and selling a ton of albums tends to mean less single sales. That's just the way it usually works, Katy is no exception.

But her female peers are selling fewer albums and fewer singles. So that argument doesn't really work here. Her singles and album are doing better. in what country? 20,000 a week isn't hot cakes She sold like 56,000 this week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her singles and album are doing better. When you say fewer albums and singles, you are talking about, let's be real, fairly small numbers. Call me when she starts outselling her peers by the millions(at least 1 million, my goodness). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deacon 5 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Teenage Dream is such an incredibly epic pop song - easily one of the greatest of the decade IMO. It stirs up every memory of the summer for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
