HermioneT 1,985 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 (edited) Honestly, Taylor has done a lot of questionable things to stay on top and one can criticise her for that. However, all the untamed Taylor hate on this site really made me loose the joy of visiting GGD. As a woman I love to see Taylor slay despite all the hate she's getting.

Bronco 5,780 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 10 hours ago, River said: she doesn't need to release a variant right now because she didn't send to delivery some variants from June so each week she's delivering a bunch of album so they count for that specific week.. it's all calculated to stay #1 I mean the chart data for this week makes it very clear that she's in the position due to streaming figures.

Bronco 5,780 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 10 hours ago, NATAH said: but she managed to get this far using those variants and FOMO tactics, how different would the sales figures be if she just had the regular standard + deluxe? I mean, apart from Billie & Charli getting a US and a UK no1 respectively, the streams are whats propelled Taylor in the off-weeks. I'm not denying she uses fomo tactics (although I'd argue that in terms of the album variants she's used the same tactics since the Midnights album release so anyone who is a fan and going to buy a copy knows the variants get sent to the highstreet) and that it's sleazy. I'm just pointing out that the main driver of her numbers in between the digital drops she's been doing has been the fact that even with comparatively low per song streaming figures. She's got double the number of songs, triple in some cases, compared to everyone else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

clementine 276 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 8 hours ago, ssslyboy said: No one is "made" to buy anything. And I said it's like comparing apples to oranges. But people had to make the conscious decision to spend money on the album. So the opposite of what you're saying is true. Technically, no, they were not made to buy it. They chose to spend their money on a Taylor album multiple times. I am agreeing it's a very different kind of accomplishment than Whitneys, but it says a lot about Taylor's start power and the accomplishment shouldn't be completely dismissed either.

Axl Jax 527 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 She's a ****ing sociopath the way she released multiple versions every other week. I do like what she's done with the food banks here in the UK, but I just get very bad vibes from her Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, no one really "made" people purchase different versions. People chose to do that. No one really "made" them release 50 different versions each one with a new track. This is not standard in the industry. What is standard: standard version, deluxe version, and occasionally japan versions. That's it. 13 tracks standard, 5 deluxe, 1 japanese. Judas is coming.

Economy 47,027 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 8 hours ago, HelloHangoverz said: This right here. How often has she spoken in a tone of feminism in a way where she sounds victimized... yet this very system shes victimized in is the same system she used to become a billionaire and become an extreme ellite in it? Yeah the system is unfair. But if u were able to exploit the system to become so rich... the unfair system benefited you more than it hurt you tbh. And talking about mysoginy or unfair capitalism practices by labels would be fine in it self and wouldnt irritate me so much if it wasnt for the fact that when Taylor has talks about her unfair injustices she has to sound like such an underdog all the time when shes clearly not 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
