Everyone bought albums back then

So are you saying that every album in 1999 sold 30M then?

[LilyAllen]

I still dont understand what the little monsters problem is, you guys consistently feel the need to bring other artists down (I could honestly make a huge list) and for what? Obviously it isnt helping her sales..

The real shocker is ABBA's Greatest Hits which has been in the top 30 forever.

If we're gonna use old stats how about we talk about Gaga having 12 top ten songs in 5 years compared to Britney having 11 in 17 years

If anything thats detrimental to Gaga. Shouldnt an artist with 12 top 10s have bigger album sales than one with 11 top 10s in 17 years? Singles are created to push albums, no?

!!!
If that's the case then why didn't Jessica Simpson and Mandy Moore's debut albums smash?

[Music Is Heaven]

The better question I have is why Gaga is underperforming while only being on her third album?

No, that's not the point. You're trying to compare an anomalous big seller released in 99 compared to a discography (including another anomalous big seller) largely prominent in an age of dying album sales

Those names are completely moot to the entire comparison though. This is about Gaga v Britney currently, so of course the army swans in like a bunch of 'only 90's kids will understand this'-memes and turns it into Britney vs other artists in the past



So Gaga has to be compared to her peers and Britney isn't, instead only being allowed to be compared to others around at her peak? The logic

Britney's peers are from when she came out Sure, it's fine if the BeyHive or P!nk Panthers want to giggle here and there because their faves are Britney's peers. But Gaga? That's like saying Britney was Mariah's peer back in 2003

because it was released at the peak of album sales?

That's what happens when shock value came in first.

[Heroine]

This is like comparing OIDIA/ITZ to ARTPOP. So stupid.

How we talk about how britney outsold Gaga's and Beyonce solo entire careers combined with her first 3 albums...leave please you too

[Arcadius]

This thread is gonna be nothing more than a backfire.

[tittieslap]

I cannot with people defending Britney Jean. The album was such trash - sorry if i'm being extreme. Britney just didn't put any effort. Everyone and everything should be outselling that album at this point.
