Ugh, her GH missed the cutoff for the archives so it's stuck as the #3 best selling album
Sending her back on tour. I'm aiming for a huge gross.

MISTER's fourth single was doing fine but now it dropped to #4 in the US selling 88K while the third single is finally smashing, going back to #1 and selling 107K
I wish we could start the new event today

For the current event, does the 60% WW mean 60% popularity in each country, or something like 10% US, 20% EU, etc. to equal 60 points?

Just started. I'll post the stats receipts later. My artists are Willow, Kali Uchis and Wynter Gordon. Overall, Wynter has the highest ability even though they're all classified as pop. I did a promo tour in the U.S. for all of them until their popularity reached 25%.
Willow just released her debut single, "Stop". It was produced by Ariel Rechtshaid, has a 62% MWScore and debuted at #69 in the U.S. with 8k sales.
Wynter Gordon just released her debut single, "Alive". It was produced by Danger Mouse, has a 53% MWScore and debuted at #47 in the U.S. with 12k sales.
Kali Uchis just released her debut single, "Maybe". It was produced by Paul Epworth, has a 66% MWScore and debuted at #71 in the U.S. with 7k sales.

SOFIA
Adriana Sofia
Following the massive success of her sophomore effort Do You Believe? and its well-performing tour, the 21-year-old decided she wanted to create a sexually-charged album. She also decided to experiment a bit more on this album with multiple sounds as well as collaborate with other famous artists. She said, "It was just time to explore my sexuality as well as my sound. I wanted to create a diverse album. I'm aiming for every song to be a hit." The lead single, "Time and Place" featuring Beyonce, debuted at #7 in June of 2019 before going straight to #1 the following week. The single sold over 2 million copies and topped the chart for 4 consecutive weeks. The next single, "Someone Else", debuted at #1 in October. It stayed on top for 15 weeks and also sold over 2 million copies. The album, titled SOFIA and released in November, debuted at #1 and stayed on top for 3 weeks. It sold over 1.5 million copies, becoming Adriana's biggest selling album to date. It also was a huge first sales week for her, selling over 500 thousand copies in its first week. Despite this massive success, critics panned the album. It only got a MW score of 57%. The next single, "Dark Roads", became her second biggest single, debuting at #1 in February, staying there for 17 weeks, and selling over 2.5 million copies. The next single, "Can't Hide", was less of a smash, debuting at #9 in June 2020 but peaking at #1 for a week. The next single, "Can't Go Back" featuring Karmin, debuted at #10 in October before reaching the top spot for 2 weeks. "The Way" debuted at #1 in February 2021 and stayed there for 6 weeks. "So What" debuted at #5 in June and eventually ruled the chart for 2 weeks. The next single, "Insane", was strangely released in August 2021 before "So What"'s time was up. It debuted at only #68 and peaked at #27. The next single, "Expand" featuring Justin Bieber, was released in October 2021, debuted at #6, and peaked at #3. "Beat It" debuted at #4 in February 2022 and eventually peaked at #2. "4 Sure", the final single from the album (which means the entire album was made into singles), debuted at #1 in April of 2021 and stayed there for 4 weeks, blocking 4 Sure for 1 week. The SOFIA Tour was a massive success, having 229 dates, many being stadiums, and grossing over $1 billion, the first tour to do so. The tour lasted over 2 and a half years from the middle of 2020 through the end of 2023 There is a large gap in that timespan though after it was realized that it is bad to tour while still promoting singles and albums. Adriana decided to have one last concert at the largest venue in the US, Congo Square (650,000 seats), in March of 2024. She sold less than 20,000 tickets. Adriana understands that this was a gross overestimation of her touring power and has promised to stick to venues under 100,000 seats. A concert movie of this tour date was filmed, however, and debuted at #1 with 205,788 copies sold. Overall, this was Adriana's biggest era yet. It lasted about 4 and a half years and produced numerous hits for her. Adriana has decided to take a break after The SOFIA Tour to work on new music and to relax.

Number Ones
Adriana Sofia
Following the huge success of the first seven singles from her album SOFIA, Adriana Sofia decided to repackage it by appending all of her previous number ones to the album and titling the compilation Number Ones. It comprises every number one from "A Gentle Soul" to "So What". It also includes the additional tracks from SOFIA, "Insane", "Expand It", "Beat It", and "4 Sure". Only "4 Sure" topped the chart out of those four however, making the title of the compilation somewhat misleading. However, the album debuted at #1 with sales of over 400 thousand (making it her second highest debut week). It recieved mostly positive reviews from critics as well, which is a good thing since SOFIA was derided by critics. Number Ones was a massive success, becoming her best selling album and one of the top 5 best selling albums since 2013, selling over 2 million copies.

Pedro's MISTER era is coming to an end soon, as it reaches its 2 year anniversary. The fifth single hit #1 on the US chart but suddenly it dropped to #46  It's just a release for the fans
The tour will be ending soon too, I want to begin a new era soon.

I'm also changing the label's popularity, the 60% is too low.

Alex has been spotted at the Cherry Merry Studio with Snoop Dogg & Wale.
The singer, songwriter, producer and legend has been spotted going out of the recording studios, he stopped to talk a bit with us and updating his fans on the current status of his career.
"I'm recording this new album which is the new Timeless. A throwback album of 90's sound, and it has a lot of Urban sound. It's kind of the Timeless part 2, while in the first one I was focusing more on the electronic and pop side of the music, this one, I'm focusing myself more on the urban side for this one. I worked with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Wale, Scarface & 2 Chainz.. Also I'm trying to get that fresh and young Brittish Rapper, Grace Gilbert, who just started her career this year (2031), and is doing her thang in Europe."
And then talked about his success:
"I don't know how I can be that successful, I had really good selling albums, but Timeless was turning point. Then I had Grown, On My Own, Fallen & now Power breaking all the records. I'm not ready to retire yet, I'm only 35 and still create music a lot."
Projects before the album:
"I've got this Best Of Album I had on my mind, since I have a lot of new fans. Retrospection is a compilation of the singles from New Kids In The Streets til my most recent album Power. It's coming out this December. Yeah I know, I have one album release per year. But I like to work."

THANK YOU. Unless you rush an album out your label's popularity ends up dropping to 20 in all regions
Also, what about signing other artists? Will we be allowed to do that? Maybe like 1 or 2 others just to keep the relevancy from dropping.
Adriana is starting a more personal era based on a relationship she had since the release of SOFIA. It's called Songs From a Broken Heart and is entirely written by Adriana and Paul Epworth. The lead single "Goodbye" debuted at #1
Edit: It debuted with 141,593 copies. The next week it sold 364,022

Goodbye is on its way to be the best-selling single of all time
Second single Ghost is doing really well as well.
She performed the entire album live on Halloween before the release of the album. The concert got a score of 80%
The album debuted at #1 with sales of 1,381,462. Poor Britney got knocked down to #3 (and Taylor to #4)
Edit: After 3 weeks it's already the #2 best-selling album in the game. These sales are the pits.
Edit 2: 4th week and it's already the best-selling album adasdfasgasasd

I was going to end the era in 2018 but Pedro's tour will end in June 2019. Making me that $$$.
So his popularity now is 100% in the US, Canada, UK and Europe. The remainder of 2019/beginning of 2020 will be spent touring in Latin America, Oceania and Asia so he can truly be global. And I can't wait to duplicate Pedro's success in the new event, now he'll truly slay the other girls with his career

Pedro: For That Night era
For That Night was recorded in three months (January-March 2016), and its title track was released as a single in October 2016 to extraordinary success. Holding the #1 spot of the US Hot 100 for many weeks, the song is the 16th best-selling song of all time (as of July 2019).
The album was released the next month, attaining worldwide success and peaking at #1 in the US, UK, Europe and Oceania. Critically, it fared extremely well. As a result of the strong sales, the album was the best-selling album of all time worldwide until Pedro's next album was released, dropping to #2 on the charts as of July 2019.
The album was promoted with 7 select shows worldwide, as part of the 'A Warm Evening with... Tour'. The Radio City Music Hall date was recorded and issued in a CD/DVD titled 'For That Night... An Intimate Show in New York', released in November 2020.
