Basically.
Pure Sales will never be irrelevant. Digital had its run and people thought it was the future and then streaming came out...in 5-7 years another form will come and pure sales will always maintain the foundation of popularity.
You are so right. I said this a few times but at one time gimmicks were seen as something "untalented" people used to be successful. With the oversaturation of stunts and gimmicks masking raw artistry, there's a great marketing technique to make more money and gain popularity but cheapens a brand when it's pushed and forced and oversold.
the GP want to support Adele because she doesn't use those methods.
Artistry, talented and a persona that authentically feels down to earth and real.
They will pay the $15.
There just needs to be more artist like that and it can make a noticeable difference.
that said, duh my avi, I know but there needs to be a balance. You can't just eat ice cream every day. You need your grains, dairy and fruits as well.
Pull through Mother Adele!
