Yall talking about pitchfork like the entire Sports Illustrated team didn’t just get laid off too
Like this is an isolated event on the one brand you hated
PF2 tour just added more dates
“Shows” in the context of the tweet is talking television not concerts
it’s almost like we’re going back to the early days of the music industry where it was a singles driven market…was the album era just a short blip then?
30+ years was a pretty long time lol

Definitely a singles driven market now, this generation killed the artist. So many people doing music now that wouldn't be doing it in the past, or have interest, cause the market is so different, but f***ed up. Getting the whole industry(I always have to point out Hip Hop, but especially Hip Hop)to dumb down till this point was always the plan.
Now the new problem is that people are tired of the bullshit music, and artist are overexposing themselves with social media and other platforms. A male rapper in 2024 is more like an influencer then an actual MC thats cool, and a woman rapper/R&B singer is pretty much an exhibitionist, using social media to promote themselves, till the point their music doesn't matter.

she killin s*** amid the chaos of the industry. Big 3 is Drake, Nicki and Cole now
30+ years was a pretty long time lol
it is a long time but in the grand scheme of things, the album era is just an era. let’s see how long streaming will last till the next big thing

I don’t really know if there’s any where else to go innovation wise from here, I guess we’ll see

I think it’s really cool that more people are making music and expressing themselves artistically. Gives people another outlet to explore themselves further. It’s nice to see people having fun

that’s not the music industry

And thats exactly why the industry is bombing
People said this during covid. Stop the fear mongering. Truth is consumers are a lot more stingy with their money but trust and believe they're still dropping money. Look at the eras tour or beyonce tour. Look at barbie and Oppenheimer. Truth is if you got a s***ty product eventually it will catch up to you. Going "viral" doesn't mean s*** anymore
Preach

I’m just glad to see people having fun, building community and exploring themselves artistically via music

Taylor, Beyonce, and Nolan are all legacy pre-streaming acts.
Barbie is just an IP. Same s*** as a superhero movie.
Barbie and Oppenheimer made a billion because they're good products. Not because of viral marketing or memes you dumb f***
They’re s***ting on you but with the star power between both films they were always destined for success regardless

Meme potential pushed it near a billi, but yeah, Oppenheimer was always gonna make $500 mil+. It's a damn good film.
i would welcome a music industry reset 100%. it’s too late to save so we might as well start from the ground up again

Yep. And Barbie felt like an original film whether people hate the Mattel ad aspect of it or not. People are sick of “insert name 2,3,4,5,6”
