This how you know the music industry is dying…

Music industry ain’t dying either. It’s just that the music industry attracts people who couldn’t get a job anywhere else so they’re natural shytty at being efficient and effective.

Album sales are antiquated just put out singles and go on tour and perform the hits. Let the tour be the “album”. That’s what live nation is doing giving out touring advances. They gave up on the record label thing. Who needs a label with the internet?

This is just dominance and evidence of an artist still in her prime, she makes music people love and like to buy and listen to, whats hard to get about it?

This has been happening with every major album release for years....

 

[leoc]

This is where I miss the days where you had to physically get your ass out of the house and go purchase an album at an actual store.

This streaming shyt is comparing apples to oranges.

she sold around 800k in physical copies

This has been happening with every major album release for years....

There was a good article about this in The Atlantic recently:

You can make a thing so perfect that it’s ruined.

Talks about how sports, music, movies have all become completely homogenized.

My bad I should have clarified. Having multiple songs in the top 10 after release is pretty regular today. Yes Taylor is the first to occupy the entire top 10, it was inevitably going to happen after Drake had 9 of the top 10 last year....

Won't be too long until someone gets the top 20....

Crazy to think this woman sells so crazy, yet can walk all through Palatka and NOBODY would care who this Random white woman is.

wtfffffffffffff

 

[KGlock]

This ain't surprising, she's been the biggest selling pop artist for a min due to all the white girls in America and there's a lot of em, do the math. Any big artist gonna dominate streaming era, imagine Michael Jackson in this time. His numbers would be almost incalculable.
