GODFLOWCant even remember the last album with real cultural staying power. lots of albums with build-up and hype prior to drop but very few with the longevity that match the era of the industry prior. the current cultural zeitgeist is to consume as much as possible (as fast as possible), which isn't limited to just music. Its fashion, movies, food, memes etc. so naturally albums that "come and go" are a byproduct of that culture that wants to constantly move on to the next "it" thing. our attention spans are shrinking and the societal pressure to always be at the forefront and not wanting to feel fomo is a threat to how we consume things. Honestly it would be a great topic for a podcast cause you could go on and on about this s***.
That being said, its great how theres a growing movement towards sustainability, buying things that last a long time and consuming mindfully. For example, the shift in public opinion on fast fashion brands like h&m and zara which up until a couple years ago people didnt give a s*** about buying from.

I agree, having massive chart-topping singles helps too. If we're considering albums that didnt do the constant promotion/public appearance thing, I'd probably have to say blonde.

Highest selling album of the year.
If that album “came and went”, then you’d hate to see what that says about your favourite rapper’s album release this year.

Nah, this off.
It still got Oh My God, All Night Parking Interlude and To Be Loved.
Those three plus the two you mentioned still more great songs then CLB had.

Yeah bro. Every other fanbase adapted to streaming except for Adele’s right.
It’s 2021 and only her fanbase is playing her s*** off their record player they got from urban outfitters
No ones actually going into their am/Spotify app and clicking on Adele’s album and pressing play.

Show me a big artist that’s getting 150k + vinyl sales but can barley do over 50k in streams

Worldpremiere_I think we need to let that cultural impact stuff go in the 2020s
The web is making culture too fragmented to have 1 album really take over.
like that taylor swift album sold hella, yet nobody i know or around has even heard of it.
It’s almost like ppl can’t really be outside
