Cry Baby hasn’t left the Billboard 200 chart since its release (70 weeks). She's got 3,787,188 Youtube subscribers and 667,946,716 total views. She never had a hit, so why is she so successful?
She's very creative, and never strays from the album concept even a little, which shows loyalty and dedication to her craft. Plus she has a pretty strong Tumblr-esque fanbase who apparently are ok with her being an albums artist.
