    I think part of the reason why pop losers come here is because they can role play and say outlandish s*** while other forums they go by the rules and don’t get to act wild

    Pretty much

    OP types like they’re in the HR department in the other forums but posts like a gangster on here because Viet is a p**** who protects the stans on this site

    You know the variants diss is disingenuous because they never acknowledge that the sales market is so dead compared to 2014-2015 that variants are needed if you are going to go up pure sales vs pure sales in 2025. Nope, they pretend as though T swift should just be able to clear 4M without any variants as if the market hadn’t shrink, which tells you for serious they actually are.

    Notice that nobody in the industry (HDD, billboard, IFPI, Grammys etc) ever had anything negative to say about her sales numbers, it’s almost like they view a variant-sales in 2025 to be just as impressive as a non-variant sales in 2015, because it is.

    How many variants do you think would be a fair equivalence?

    the swifties bought 1000 phones to stream though

    No one denied her streaming power. Its the 40 variants being released to break a record.

    They keep bringing up the streaming like without the many variants (which is why she's doing like 3.5M pure and able to break Adele's record) we'd be having this discussion right now lol.

    yikes you didnt even respond to my last post lol. keep moving the goal posts though

    should she had removed her album from streaming platforms for months, would that had been a good equivalent for you? wouldve been the same metric for the Adele comparisons

    Anyways!

    This is VINYL ONLY.

    The Life of a Showgirl had 34 different versions available to buy during its opening week, according to Billboard.

    Those other albums did not.

    How are you calling cap my nigga that’s straight from Billboard directly

    Nobody said other artists didn’t do multiple versions but they damn sure did not do 34 in a single week, that’s the point. Other artists don’t even have the infrastructure for that

    To the same extent as Taylor? No.

    Releasing three versions of your album and releasing 34 versions of your album are not the same thing whatsoever
