I mean this is nice and all but you'd think there are 50k gays that'd purchase a vinyl given how we went absolutely mad for Berghain. 

[Emvee 8,611]

Gays have lost their purchasing power

Those are great numbers for her, it's more than double what Motomami did 

Also goes out to shows how American charts aren't necessarily the best reflection of one's overall cultural impact.

Berghain didn't even chart in the US. But it did in many international markets

And this is how you know you are stuck in a tiny echo chamber. It absolutely did not make waves outside of a niche loud base. It only has 23 million views after 2 weeks. For a latin artist that is very low.

Why do you get so pissed when people like things you don’t?

[Ladle Ghoulash 33,502]

But petty nonsense aside, excellent album. Here’s to hoping it secures AOTY 2027

[Kayi 2,848]

It's amazing numbers for her 

I hope they will play her music at the radio 

Skyrock, NRJ you know what's your mission right now ?

Apparently if an album isn’t a blockbuster success, it’s an utter failure lmao. It got 42M streams its first day. Pretty damn good for an album as experimental as this.

Lux is that album that will be massively appreciated 10 years from now.

Isn't it appreciated already?  It's literally praised to the heavens left and right. Deservedly so.
