plastiscguy 63,439 Posted June 14 Honestly, as long as the music is good, I can choose to ignore a singer's behavior (unless it's something bad bad, like being a rapist apologist, or a racist/transphobe) cause like, almost every single artist has done something problematic, and if it that stops me from enjoying their music... then I'd have nothing left to listen to What she does is greedy and fucked up, but yk... yolo 6 Quote My rose garden dreams set on fire by fiends...

Idk cause Taylor really hasn’t done anything that’s actually evil 😭😭 The way people are talking about her over a CHART BATTLE is insaneeeee like please relax. This will not matter in a week. 2 Quote ❀❀ ˖° ⋆.ೃ࿔ this is my idea of fun °⋆.ೃ࿔*:・ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, but how many times has Taylor done stuff like this. She did it to Billie, she did it to Katy when witness dropped by adding her first 5 albums on Spotify and now Charli. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This will not matter in a week. but it will. it happens time and time again and the only recurring factor is taylor purposely releasing random & irrelevant variants just when another artist is on the cusp of one-upping her on the chart. it’s just crazy to me that someone who preaches about feminism and being a 'girls girl' will go to those lengths to block other women from getting their flowers at the top spot. it also irks me that she puts on the i’m relatable taylor! schtick when she is quite literally a billionaire putting on a front to milk as many pennies as she can out of her fans. it’s just created this unenjoyable atmosphere of 'X artist is the best because they sold X records' instead of actually caring about artistic output and the quality of their work. it also means artists like lana don’t get the recognition they deserve in the form of grammies (which i know don’t matter, but it would be so validating for lana) anyways said my peace on this taylor deserves lashings because it keeps happening and it pisses me off 25 Quote resident sweeter 24/7/17 - 9/7/23 - 10/7/23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NikoGo 61,501 Posted June 14 I mean releasing 3 UK exclusives ‘first draft’ songs because that’s where Charli is charting does seem a bit excessive tbh But I mean it did earn her her longest running #1 album in the UK, so you could argue it wasn’t because of Charli in particular. I think the ones to blame are swifites who eat these limited edition ‘albums’ up Personally I think billboard should tweak the rules a bit so this can’t keep happening because I love love love TTPD but 3 new ‘albums’ every week is excessive and isn’t doing her any favors against the capitalistic claims 11 Quote "Don’t forget me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idk being a girls girl doesn’t mean just giving everyone a participation trophy lmao. If the at most 5,000 copies of those digital albums were enough to block Charli, then is it really that big of a deal? Also I really don’t care about Taylor’s supposed feminism personally 😭. Everyone knows she’s not a great feminist and I think the last time she even preached about “girls girl” stuff was Lover era? Like ok it’s annoying but is it worth getting this mad about lol? She is held to the craziest standards. If Charli did some shit to block Taylor you guys would be clapping and cheering happy that someone finally “took her down a peg”. Charli also released like 10 variants for the album and no one is upset about that. 3 Quote ❀❀ ˖° ⋆.ೃ࿔ this is my idea of fun °⋆.ೃ࿔*:・ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
