The issue people have isn't "flopping," per se. It's more the cavalier disregard she seems to have for the music as a whole. If she pushed the music and it just didn't connect with the public, no one would blame her. But as the case is, it's just hard, in my opinion, for a lot of people to care about the era/music or take it seriously, when she herself doesn't appear to be taking it seriously.
And yes, "she's taking risks," bla bla bla... but there's a difference between making/releasing "risky" music and undertaking a poor release strategy. Release all the risky music you want, but do it in a manner that shows us you care.
I agree with you. She needs to act like she cares.
