Guest Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 ARTPOP is not a flop ... yes it underperformed but its nowhere near a true flop. lotus is probably the most iconic flop album. tbh, only pop stans label things flop or smash, so id go with lotus. even now when albums allegedly leak, people trick you into downloading lotus just for the giggles. thats how influential her flopness is.

Isn't it sort of... you know... offensive? To my knowledge, it comes from the fact that she photoshopped herself extensively on her album cover Me I am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse, thinking no one would say anything.

migamiga 12,101 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Glitter I don't mean any disrespect by sharing this gif but it's literally the visualization of how the album tanked. It was (clearly) overshadowed by 9/11 and on top of that was not well received by critics and fans. It was her first album with Virgin after signing $100 million contract (biggest recording contract at the time) and the under performance led to Virgin dropping Mariah by paying her off (I think $50 mil). The critical and commercial failure of the album and movie + over exhaustion led Mariah to a breakdown. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official press release said 'terminate', Mariah's camp sued and called the label "deplorable", and then Virgin countersued for defamation.

Is the glitter era consider a flop solely for the movie tanking or for the album as well? If we are being fair, the album (while a low number for Mariah) sold more than 500,000 copies in the US. The movie (meanwhile) made back less than 1/4 of its budget. Is the album just a flop when compared to her other albums? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamo 19,088 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 ARTPOP. Because even though it's considered a flop to many, it still sold millions. unlike some other flop albums we won't mention. and that's the tea on that. Ï could be your girlfriend for the weekend...
