Don't compare albums released in different time frames; compare albums released at a similar time. Or are Britards admitting that their fave's career peaked and ended 10 years ago?
Katy totally sucking but PRISM still being a bigger era than B'Day
ARTPOP outperforming Femme Fatale and Blackout
I Am... A White Lady being Yawnce's biggest era
1989 totally rerouting the landscape of pop music
Albums get delayed all the time. It isn't being delayed because of a label. It's being delayed because she didn't want to crap.out another half hearted album, which is what you all USED to drag her for.
I'd rather her keep the album until she's ready to release it rather than talk about it for a year, hype it up as the album of the decade, talk about how she's "coming" for other pop stars, then blame others/ have a meltdown on twitter because it didn't live up to expectations.
I guess we are using low ball numbers despite 25M being reported for BOMT in 2000 with two US certifications left to make it to 14x platinum and 30M being reported by billboard, CNN and most credible entities.
Actually with the constant catalog sales GH:MP passed the 7 million mark. All the proper receipts can be found in the Britney receipts thread (and you know Anticipating deflates them to appease certain stan bases)
Except B didn't release three flops and then went into hiding on some island.
You're right. She just delayed the release of the flops over and over and over again, cried herself to sleep about having no classics and needing a hit, and tacked those flops on the rih-release. Smart woman.
