Why did Beyonce (with 600 quick lil singles off of 4) and RihGlobal#1PopstarInTheWorld fail to make IFPI while Nicki swooped in out of nowhere and took them both out with Starships?
With a slight iTunes rebound + video streaming "Applos" may go Top 5 on the Hot 100 next week but its still an underperformance considering Born This Way was spending a second week on top at the same point
Wait, Applause still hasn't cracked the top 3 on iTunes despite having almost all of GMA dedicated to her and premiering a music video? And the music video hasn't even cracked 4 million views despite some of her stans thinking it would break the Vevo record? And hopefully they don't think the VMA's will change anything.
The ARTPOP era is the era that just keeps on giving.
I mean the gifs alone its like Christmas
And irrelevant flop Merna Dermands only radio single charted in more countries than it
Why do people always ask "whatever happened to _________?" as if these artists have been away from more than two years or don't have lives outside of music and deserve a break? Nicki has been doing collaborations; it's not like she's been 'away away.'
