Reginald 13,841 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I-- The new girls are all really struggling on Billboard 200 My queen Ava with 15k debut at #34, Kim with 17k, Bebe with 10k... The audiences they're targeting need to recognize that if you want these artists to have a major label career longer than 5 years, you need to buy their music.

Maybe we should stop caring about the pure record sales. It’s known by now that artists earn their money by touring and they accumulate recognition and new fans not by music videos on mtv or tv performances but through funny dances of teens on tictac.

You're right, though! What label wants to invest (x) amount of money into recording a full album when you can just make more money becoming popular on social media and doing brand deals? That's where we are right now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where we are right now Even so, music success I think is still very much relevant for an artist's demand despite the influence tik Tok added to the mix Yes touring makes several times more money than sales or streaming themselves. But they still matter indirectly to profitability in the sense that for u to have a strong tour you need to be in demand in the first place Remember Katy Perry? Her ticket revenue dropped a lot in many of her dates once her music started flopping on the charts. So commercial success for music still matters to more profitable avenues like touring Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controversiaga 11,328 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I feel like billboard is becoming more and more irrelevant. They need to create their own streaming platform imo. Otherwise, Spotify and Apple Music numbers are more meaningful imo, given we live in a streaming world and only STANS actually buy albums/CDs/vinyls. Pronounced like “Balenciaga” .

Tove Lo is a great example of this. She hasn’t had a big hit in years and her albums don’t do huge numbers but she keeps putting out great music and is constantly touring and playing at festivals. She may not have mainstream success anymore but her fans are still being fed and I’m sure she’s making decent money with all the small venues her fans continue to fill up.
