True.
Perhaps if it were more like PF era it wouldn't seem as lengthy with TPP era.

Her lack of social media presence is nice too after all those rants from 2012-2013. Her promo is on point so far. We're about to get about 20 songs, and all these exclusives.
But all I see is complaining about when a preorder for an album dropping in 3 weeks is coming. If you don't like the music, then kindly leave. You're taking the fun out of this Era for the rest of us.

Perfect...
I think the issue is that she can have 4 songs come out before an album but at least 1 should be such a smash that it saturates the charts...I guess we can count bang bang. The songs get hyped, die down and do not really transitioning to one another to serve as a buildup more like reheating.
That said, I'm still thinking 250k/300k+ If it turns out to be 150k i'll eat my words. Hope I'm wrong.

Rihanna fans are tripping out about R8, and so on. We'll get over it the minute Nicki gives us more details.

Yeah if you dedicate time to a message board then of course you already are investing more time than the average person. overreactions will occur...

and Twitter and Social media...let's not limit it. Generalizing to say the rest of the world ONLY cares about music is quite silly.
What's the point of the billboard music awards, or popularity award shows that showcase ones popularity for a moment in time or videos that make a splash. I mean some people might be limited in their views of what they care about but I'm not sure the entire GP onlycares about one factor. Entertainment message boards and blogs would be in a world of trouble if that were the case
I've seen blogs, boards and articles about TPP and have not seen anything solely focused on music without mention other obvious factors.

The same way many people don't dedicate as much time as we do. Some do but just in other ways, Twitter, other boards, blogs, comments on articles from music driven sites etc.

BUT when the album drop she better have quality music, if the sells aren't that good

I REALLY don't want to lower my expectations for sales. I still want to believe that the rest of the album is going to be as amazing as LAN and BOL are to me.

Yall have to learn to accept that people have different opinions and feel different about things. Not everyone thinks the same.

Well, I hope you are up for a debate because no one should try to change your opinion but you should be open to the fact that people will express their opinion in support or against...hopefully they don't go below the belt on your views on TPP. I feel like we have gradually move past those times and hopefully that will continue.
