There's no struggle to being the youngest or the most successful teenage artist of all time.
Those are actually recognized.
Wait I thought people were in here feeding off of the broken dreams Billboard sent about equating sales to 2000 as if 50M+ people haven't been born since and as if there is no actual way to determine exactly to a tee what coulda shoulda woulda.
Now people are coming for actual stats but praising fairytales and coulda woulda shoulda
No shame.

Adele has so many songs that can keep the album afloat, too.  Hopefully, she doesn't get lazy because this has potential to be another Diamond album for her, or at least 7-9x Platinum.

I'm just going to say it.
I feel like Beyonce waited for Gaga and Katy to duke it out with gaga tanking and katy getting her hits but not exactly huge album sales and Miley and her shenanigans and then she dropped Beyonce like see I don't have to use those stunts I use the surprise gimmick instead.
Adele be Liiiiiiike swoop. Hello, it's me 1M singles debut week, debut at #1 and 3M album sales after watching z listers like demi and selena reign, rihanna's reign letting up and kelly osbourne's doppelganger lowkey slaying with hit...let people start to tire of taylor and then
swoop. Great lead single, simple video, massive WW stats showing how to come out and slay the game without gimmicks.
I feel as though many beyonce stans and even hybrids are lowkey showing how salty they are about Adele slaying so effortlessly and without a gimmick and I think the saltiness will amount to a salt lick by the time adele completes her era...unless Adele finally gives Beyonce the duet she's been eyeing for with her return to #1 on the charts.

yeah rough stats I admit but yes.
I have to cackle at how they are quick to use the fairytales and broken dreams equivalents (without obvious factors missing from the methodology) but then discount legit accolades.
One minute certain accolades are irrelevant then next they use it claiming there's nothing left then they list only a portion of the multitude of accolades one holds.
I feel like they need to do a better job keeping their fallacies in order.
I respect a lie/stunt that was well thought out...anything less is an insult.

We don't need Beyoncé now that Adele is brining vocals and talent to music.

Just release three more singles with videos and make a few more appearances. The album will hold up from there. We don't want Adele fatigue.

Katy Perry's 16 holiday-themed attempts to replicate the success of Left Shark
Katy Perry has made a career out of outrageous music videos featuring the entire Pantone color spectrum, but this holiday season, her gift to you is… the exact same thing, only Christmas-themed.
By then, you’ll be plenty familiar with the song, as well as its cadre of festive misfits who are almost definitely a ploy to re-create the success of Left Shark, that scene-stealing furry who stole the show during Perry’s Super Bowl performance earlier this year. Claus knows that Left Shark’s 15 minutes of fame were up quicker than Ariana Grande can lick a donut, but the maritime absence has now left the door wide open for another character from Perry’s roster to grab the spotlight just in time for holiday memes.

Yeah at this point I'm fine with a 7-9x platinum.
She needs to push this 6 singles to be honest.

You're clearly trying to sabotage her and make her lose her streak. No one wants that mess

The public doesn't know what they want: When We Were Young, Water Under The Bridge or Send My Love.
Let's do a triple-release.

It's a different sound for her that people loved, it would be a huge smash. The early reception to it on iTunes was very promising

lol. She can continue recreating throwback r&b samples and references and passing it off as current r&b. it's better than any other r& b out right now.
I think she knows that pop just praises her beauty and her touring because she tried to push at least 2-4 of her songs from that stunt album and pop be like. nope. Drunk in love was moreso on hype but still didn't go top 5 or anything..at least I don't recall.
I think a due with adele will give her pop play that she is trying to move back in on.
Adele knowing the tea...I'm sure if adele were to do a song she'd do it for beyonce's album so it's clear that she is willing to help out others in their quest for a new #1
