    Gaylors are stronger than ever!

    I fuck you not I saw a gaylor say TTPD is about Phoebe Bridgers in FULL seriousness. Their entire world has been turned upside down bc their entire narrative was “if Taylor’s so happy with Joe - why is she writing all these lustful songs?” And now that Taylor’s basically confirmed them to be about Matty Healy, who she’s waited for since 2014, they’re in panic.

    i think id be mad too. sounds goin viral on things like Tiktok is what leads people's attention to the songs


    Well…UMG makes money off Taylor’s success and she owns her own music, so it was fully within her right.

     

    The only thing was, I think UMG wanted her to hold rank so they could co-negotiate for more money for all the music UMG owns, but Taylor probably decided she was gonna do what’s best for her in this business.

    i feel like UMG is mad at her over the TikTok thing. I just saw a reddit post that said the merch was not distributed by UMG and instead by TaylorNation. I have a feeling she's going to break away.

    Anyways 140million on Spotify on Day 3 is pretty crazy. I totally figured she’d be under 100 million by day 2 with how inaccessible this album appeared to me. I’m guessing it’ll taper to below 100m by tomorrow

    To be fair, there’s 5 Jack tracks on it compared to 1989 which had 3… and one of them is getaway car.

     

    edit- also who knows what’s in the vault 


    ya OOW was a highlight. Christopher Rowe is just not that good

    Ok i just remembered anti-hero is about her being scared of fans getting tired of her scheming and leaving her for it and now i feel bad :krylie:


    I don’t think the fans are leaving tho. The album is still outperforming midnights by a good margin - and even the GP doesn’t seem that annoyed by her. It seems to be just the critics and Stan twitter

    Sputnik 48ing this :rip: she’s kind of in her critical backlash era and her retweeting all of the 10/10 reviews is sort of … :bebe:

     

    obviously will be a massive commercial success but will be interesting to see what this does long term because of how negative the discourse around this is outside of fan circles 


    Sputnik gave her a 4.5/5 (90/100) tho. Her most acclaimed album by them: https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/88481/Taylor-Swift-The-Tortured-Poets-Department-Anthology/

    it fails because it can’t review pop music properly / is flawed in other areas.


    oh sorry - quality of reviews is absolutely not why I think they failed lmao. I think they failed bc they suck at SEO and couldn’t get ad money bc of it. 
     

    They have no ability to build a solid audience. I visit their site quite a bit given my love of music, and never have I been prompted to give them my email address for any sort of newsletter or “recapturing” campaign. 
     

    Since all their content is also ungated, AFAIK, they also have no supplementary revenue stream. 
     

    The only spikes in their audience (I just checked) is when they publish a controversial review on an album with a huge fan base, and that’s a horrible SEO strategy for long term success/bringing advertisers imo.

    A negative review gets more clicks. Outrage gets more clicks. I work in SEO, this is textbook - and Pitchfork as a platform failed anyways. They’ll be folded into GQ by end of year.

    *insert halsey tweet here*

    this being lower than midnights is ridiculous, ttpd should’ve gotten a 7.5 plus with midnights somewhere in the high 6’s, but whatever :trisha4:


    not to be mean, but I assume whoever doesn’t understand the genius of this album has had the most boring romantic life ever.

    The Gaylors are having a meltdown bc every song they argued could be about Karlie Kloss can by the same logic now be argued to be about Matty Healy LMAOOOOOO

    She should log into LB sometime if she thinks this is bad :hillary:

    and while I don’t condone hopping into anyone’s DMs (go touch grass), I can’t condemn it either bc ppl do be nuts and don’t poke those bears 

     

    (also let's call a spade a spade, this is clearly a Lana fan as well)

    "Fresh Out The Slammer" becoming my new favorite. Oh this album is becoming skipless :trisha: (but nothing for you "The Anthology," [except for "How Did it End?"])

    What a queen Nikki Lane is, with just one repost on Instagram she got swifties mad... but she is an "irrelevant, unknown, and talentless" anyways :lush:

     

    I promise you no one outside the joint TayLana fans have any idea about this or who she is LOL. It's just that her presence on LB is quite large.
