    @op is absolutely disgusting for unpinning this. Taylor won

    It's so much fun stanning her. But I will stick to the OG version of all albums.

    I don’t know how to perceive Taylor numbers. It’s never an indication how hot the music is generally. But credit to her because as well as cultivating a massive fanbase. She has also cultivated a Stan group who are deeply invested in her chart success and wellbeing . Not just they hope she does well . They participate in mass buying and a whole bunch of s*** to make sure,

    I don’t think anybody in rap has that. Maybe Nicki stans but there’s not enough of em

    Utopia was doing 161K in September and people on here were saying it flopped

    Nigga talking about an album carried by bundles shipping staggered over a few weeks and a drake feature.

    Funny thing is it’s a scam as a bunch of fans ain’t received that 5 dollar vinyl 😂

    It’s not a scam, fans will get their vinyl eventually. That’s Billboard’s fault not Travis’s

    No it’s a scam. For a bunch they reported them s***s as shipped (so they count on billboard) but the fans never received them

    Also, Selling vinyls for 5 dollars is strictly to inflate billboard sales numbers because you are taking losses financially for sure.

    It’s not a scam, fans will receive their vinyl eventually. Billboard’s idiotic rule change is the reason they reported them as shipped.

    Also, even if they are taking a major financial hit with the discounts (which they obviously are not or else they would’ve never happened), what does it matter to you or any of us? Literally has no effect on anybody if Travis’s team gains or loses money. Who cares?

    I think Taylor’s numbers confuse us folks cause we’re used to artists on that level in modern times being visibly championed by wildly different audience demographics in the US, but it’s no different from Elvis and Beatlemania tbh. We’re so used to the MJ standard of being championed by a bunch of dissimilar groups that we think that’s always been the standard for every S tier megastar

    You’re leaving out the fact the numbers are inflated due to stans participating in mass buying. Planned streaming parties to boost the numbers etc

    “Hey guys I need to go number 1. I know you already have this song but I will release 19 versions extra. Buy all”

    The s*** is not comparable to anything 😂

    So it’s a scam / numbers finesse. Can’t take the numbers serious.

    It’s not a scam at all. Fans spent real dollars on the items. The sale was made. End of story.
