juju 18,907 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Who had the biggest/best comeback in pop music? My 3 favorites are all obvious: Mariah Carey and her Emancipation of Mimi catapulted her back on top of the game, after some commercial floppage and people dubbing her career as being "over". We Belong Together was undoubtedly the biggest song of 2005, you literally couldn't go anywhere without hearing it. Billboard even named it "the song of the decade". Britney's Circus revived her caqreer, with Womanizer being one of her biggest hits. It became her first #1 in the US since her debut single ten years earlier. The world was here for it. Kesha defied all odds and came back after a grueling court battle with Praying, and her upcoming album, Rainbow. It's success has yet to be determined chart-wise, but critics love it, and the video is a testament to her strength as well as being this year's best video. What are some of your favorite comebacks? ❤ x ❤ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexanderMagno 10,746 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Kesha in the list? Please, it's way too soon. Let's not go into this hype train, it has happened multiple times (specially with Gaga) and almost never ends the way we want. Kesha's comeback is still happening. I don't know many pop comebacks, but I'd say Rihanna with Anti. Everyone was kind of sick of her after Unapologetic, mocking her schedule, those non-album singles were considered a flop, and Anti expectations were very, very low. And it was the album that basically confirmed she might be the great female pop star of this age. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlayGagaloo 16,152 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 WITNESS. Katy "came back" to having critically-panned albums after PRISM which broke the pattern by receiving generally positive reviews. It goes OOTB (47/100), TD (52/100), PRISM (61/100 ) then WITNESS (52/100). Over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't recall what happened through-out 2015 and 2016, it was becoming clear that her career was highly likely to be over for good. But she came back with the best single and video of her career, to rave reviews literally everywhere besides that one Twitter SJW? Her comeback is happening and if it keeps up this momentum, it'll be one of the biggest comebacks in Pop History, quote me ❤ x ❤ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
