Bottom 1,842 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Sorry if i sound like a moaner but i am disappointed in what they are doing currently. BTW is such a personal album to me, as it is to many others on here, i was so excited about the decade anniversary and hopeful it would be celebrated in a special kind of way but all they want is to sell us a bunch of overpriced stuff to try and make as much money as possible. From the 250 dollar versace t shirts, or the haus labs bad kids vault or the 85 dollar anniversary pillow. They are exploiting such a special era for us when they know how much it means to us. I just feel like it is very exploitative and taking advantage of something that should have been very special. Yall can drag me for complaining but it is all about money for them right now instead of celebrating Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanStan 571 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Just enjoy the album and not buy any merch. There are a lot of people that want to celebrate the anniversary with those items. If everyone takes what they want from it everyone wins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen 30,327 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 What do you want her to do? She didn't need to do ANYTHING and yet she's giving us merch at different levels, a whole pop up event which she attended, a special edition of the album highlighting artists from the LGBT community.... You want her to personally come to your house and sing Government Hooker? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke78619 23,042 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I get what you mean, I haven’t been too excited from what we’ve got. It’s just a few covers and some expensive merch, but you don’t need to buy any of it if you don’t want. There’s people out there who will enjoy it so at least it’s something poor TF and TFM got nothing at all insta: good_lukeing | I have nothing else to promote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interscope does, she has no control over her merch or her prices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostitute Barbie 4,076 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I really don’t care what they do with the merch because I’m not getting it but I just don’t see the point of their “10 year anniversary edition” album at all. Like it’s literally just the same (standard edition) album repackaged with an extra disc of a few covers that will probably all be on streaming platforms anyway? I really don’t see what the selling point is for that or why they thought that was the best idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
