This is so sad. She delivered the best pop album of the decade but it flopped due to zero promotion and hype.

I googled and found that it takes about 15,000$ to make a song. Carly wrote 250 songs and recorded like 50 songs. So the estimated production cost of E.MO.TION is 1 million $. Because you can clearly see that EMOTION uses hundreds of 80s instruments compared to 1989, which use the same instruments for most tracks and is much cheaper to produce (no offence to my queen Taylor, 1989 is still a great album!)  

EMOTION sold about 140k worldwide, 9.99$/CD makes 1,400,000$. 13% went to Carly. The rest she had to pay for her producers and songwriters.

Her tour grossed about 100,000$. Not enough to make up for the loss Carly invested in this album.

I'm so sad and i want to cry. Carly may not be able to afford to make another album. :((((((((

If I were a millionaire, I would give away Carly Rae Jepsen 5 million dollars, tell her that ''you are the world's most underrated pop artist'' and hug her.

I'm heartbroken.

You know she doesn't pay for it herself, right? You're not even taking into account royalties from that album, royalties from past albums, as well as royalties from other song writing credits, samples of hers used, interviews, promotional deals etc. She ain't no broke bish, bish.

what the hell did you smoke this morning? :huntyga:

Also it doesn't work like that. She didn't pay for her album, the label did. She gets royalties from all her songs, considering how popular Call Me Maybe was she got them coins.

Yes, but my question is: EMOTION sold less than the production cost of EMOTION that her label paid for. Then what happened?

The label has to deal with the loss. They are the ones responsible for promotion, so if it fails it's on them. Artists never have to pay for the costs themselves. The worst thing that could happen is Carly being dropped by the label because they don't want to invest in her anymore

Well then your overreacting. Carly is living a very happy life right now, writing songs and performing her music to the world. There's no reason to cry for her, especially money wise. :rip:

You have no idea how the music industry works. The royalties from Call Me Maybe alone will continue to bring in millions and millions to Carly. The song gets played as we speak somewhere in the world on radio. 

She ain't broke.
