She's been less consistent than Madonna was for her first decade and a half, and she hasn't had a Top 5 hit on pop radio as a lead artist since "Stay", so what's keeping her afloat right now really is streaming. |
To be fair, she could still get a Top 5 as a lead in the future, since the demand is clearly still there, but Work was really polarizing. People either loved it or ****ing hated it. I knew a lot of people that can't stand it and complain about not understanding the words and thinking the chorus is annoyingly repetitive. And Needed Me was not meant to be a pop hit.
It was kind of obvious to me KIB would flop... it's too slow lol.
Yes, Rise wasn't as huge as I expected. I was wrong. Too bad.
