Discussion: Why is Sevyn flopping? - Page 2

iHype.

Bye @ all these Jhene stans.

Sevyn still has a HIT and will have some sales (even tho not much) to back herself up. This is an EP, the promotion hasn't been anything good or that will move serious units because of the fact it's an EP.

Once her studio album drops next year y'all will be SILENT.

I mean, she only has ONE single in the Top 40.

What did she expect?

Sevyn has performed her hit on TV, she also had "I Like It", she did the awards show with Kelly Rowland, she has had major cosigns on twitter, her project is in mad stores...

I really expected her to CRUSH Jhené's sales...and I love SEVYN's EP and I'm rooting for both of them.

No hate at all. I just really expected her to do better. She has been on morning news shows performing her hit, 106, and more.

Who expected slayage?
Jhene has collaborated with some of the biggest current rappers.
She's had the last year three years to build a stable fanbase starting with her mixtape. Like you can't compare. Sevyn has a hit single and as a r&b artist that's saying something. She's fine

With the promo and hit I expected at least 30k. Sevyn been in the game just as long and has been on Chris Brown's projects...was on a HIT "She AIn't You", and she was in Richgirl and other groups.

Don't act like all of that didn't exist.

It Won't Stop is a bigger than anything Jhene has ever released in her DECADE long career.
But one single on urban isn't going to move album units like the decade long hype machine Jhene had going for her.
She's worked with several BIG NAME celebs like Kanye, Drake, AND Kendrick, so her lack of success is even more alerting.

She was not properly credited for She Ain't You.

KORDEI

It doesn't matter since as "It Won't Stop" (where Sevyn is the lead artist) is better than anything on Jean Aiko's EP. Quality over quantity!

BeenTheShit

She's definitely being slept on and she shouldn't be. Her EP is very solid.

Let's not be salty because Sevyn has changed her stage name 1000x and been in like 3 groups. She was on Chris Brown's biggest hit...and the Kanye stuff etc was all on Jhené's free mixtape that most of these new Jhené fans prob still don't know about.

Remmy

Because Sevyn eyght nyne and nobody wants to support a murderer.

Hihi

Jhené is all about quality too. Just because she's selling more you can't say that she isn't quality. She does things her way and she doesn't make things for radio unlike Sevyn who has synth heavy radio bangers. Nothing on Sevyn's EP sounds "different" from what we already heard. Hell she's just Kelly Rowland 2.0

She is a r&b artist a new one @ that, and this is a EP. She promoted on bet networks that average MAYBE a million views and a morning show that appears in ONE city, it's not like she was at the AMA's, on Ellen, X Factor, no. RichGirl is a group with no hits, zero not even a album. And singing background vocals for Chris on his flop albums was supposed to give her what? Pls

ForeverNow90

Their highest charting single:
41. Sevyn Streeter - It Won't Stop (feat. Chris Brown)
395. Jhene Aiko - The Worst

13. Sevyn Streeter - Call Me Crazy, But... (Released This week)
19. Jhene Aiko - Sail Out (after 4 weeks)

Jhene is selling off her name alone.

Big Smoke

I wonder if people know that Jhene has been around longer than Sevyn though.

Anyway both them chicks boring.
