And some of you cried cuz of Taylor’s 4 variants 

Seems like Dua is just hopping on the trend that people like Taylor started.

The difference between this and taylor is so clear, y'all cant be serious

Not to be a hipster loser but I miss when vinyls were somewhat niche. You caught the first regular pressing with maybe one or two variants and if you weren't on it you'd have to pray for a re-press or go looking for a resell. No shade to Dua but so many of these are going to wind up in a landfill.

Making an exception for her, and any other artist that isn't Taylor.

Idk if I should get the Delta Variant or just wait for the Omicron Exclusive Deluxe with all extended tracks.

But fans really don’t need to buy any more than one edition in this scenario to own all the songs, it’s solely a cosmetic and collector choice at this point. That’s why you can’t give Ariana, Olivia, etc. flack either. Taylor’s fans had to buy four different versions if they wanna own every song from their fave’s new album 

Olivia literally did the exact same thing that Taylor did, splitting bonus tracks across different vinyl variants  Except she never put them on digital or another format besides vinyl, and she didn't provide new artwork. At this point, it's just Taylor hatred.

- people like taylor =/= taylor started a trend

- ur stating the obvious. Everything has existed for ages

- don’t act like taylor has no role in the way musicians market these days. She is the mega star rn, in many terms, one of them being stan culture and music as a commercial capitalistic business. Other musicians watched, observed and applied.

I had no idea Olivia did that too! And I found something

All of the bonus tracks were released together with a Record Store limited edition LP. This is probably what Taylor is going to do then.

Does every single conversation have to revolve around Taylor though? 

[MessyTop 14,389]

At least Taylor has 4 different covers

literally who? cus taylor is literally being dragged by her own fans for her marketing atm...

This doesn't bother me at all. It's the same album not matter the variant. So big time stans can buy each different variant to have the collection, if that's what they want.

But casual fans can just buy one and still get all the album songs.
