    Okay so they can easily cancel the first order and place a new one for the cheaper one

    Calling an impending album a mystery box is actually insane

    Also, like you just said for Taylor’s 33 version album, no fan is obliged to buy something they don’t want to.

    If there are Weeknd fans that have no interest in buying a vinyl, they aren’t being forced to. It’s a non-issue.

    Weeknd fans who want a physical version of the album have no choice but to buy his mystery vinyl/cd.

    Taylor fans just buy what version they'd like the most lol

    Then there's the time-limited vinyl. He put his fans on the spot, buy whatever the f*** I decide to put on this album within the next 24 hours cause it will never be on sale again

    And not a single person is being forced to purchase it

  • Nov 13, 2024

    Also, you’re acting like orders can’t easily be canceled or sold. Nobody is being forced to buy or keep this vinyl forever

  • Nov 13, 2024

    Imagine defending 33 versions of the same album specifically created to squeeze every last dollar out of a fanbase, but being mad over an artist selling two collectors’ edition vinyl, one for cheaper than the standard album

    This has to be straight up racism because there’s no other explanation

    Racism is when you hold artists accountable for the bs they pull.

    Half the replies under his latest vinyl announcement tweet are saying the same thing I am lmao. I've never seen a more delusional stan than Fader

    but this list isn't about last 10 years. It's since beginning of 2000 and she has the longevity. I agree she wouldn't be this high if it as just this decade.

    She just did a 10m per show average and grossed 550M last tour as well.

    Yeah but the longevity basically just misses the entire 2010s, since she didn't have much success during those years at all, so it just feels off

    It’s racism when you’re holding the black man accountable for dropping two collectors’ versions, and excusing the white woman who dropped 34 different versions of an album to squeeze money out of her fans in any way possible

  • Nov 13, 2024

    It’s genuine insanity to assume that what Taylor did with TTPD is okay but what Weeknd is doing with HUT somehow isn’t

    And looking at that tweet, all I see is people saying they either placed an order or want a colored version, what are you talking about

    She did, she had 5 albums in that time period each averaging 3X plat.

    Another thing to account for is most of 10s albums were Tidal exclusives.

    Just say you’re talking about big Hot 100 poppy singles and keep it moving cause this is utter bullshit. Self-titled doesn’t exist, literally changed album releases forever? Lemonade doesn’t exist, third best selling album of 2016? Like what are you even talking about bro
