All artists “scam” the system though, don’t they? Let us not forget our queen’s 99 cent deal that really inflated BTW’s debut. 

Do you mean Amazon's? If I remember correctly, Amazon was debuting it's own music service around the time Born This Way was released. Amazon chose to jump on the hype around Gaga's release and offered Born This Way at 99 cents to promote their music service, unbeknownst to Gaga or her team. Every copy purchased for 99 cents was purchased in full by Amazon.

ok seriously though, I cannot sing you any of the songs from TTPD, Midnights, hell even folklore or evermore (and I like those two albums!) the music isn't sticking

there's a reason why Cruel Summer was charting for so long, it's actually a genuinely good memorable pop song.

This is probably the most "pop" song off the album you might like it 

[HelloHangoverz 16,986]

Whole thing was bought. There was obvious desperation that this needed to surpass anything else she's ever done - with the rereleases they need her to remain present and relevant, she can't just turn into a jukebox of her past hits, which in my opinion is why the album is so ridiculously long. I'll breathe a sigh of relief when the debut TV finally drops and the inevitable hiatus begins. It's getting stale now

She is just very obsessed with charts and numbers. She would still be very successful without all the tricks & payola she's using to inflate her numbers but it's just sad to see lol.

Not to mention that a sale/discount ≠ variants

This thread is so disappointing. The record is excellent. 

[djBuffoon 12,074]

Regretfully, the album is still mediocre and forgettable.

And I say this as a longtime fan/defender of Taylor.
