She doesn’t have those kinds of universal smackers

it’s her appeal, if she had Britney’s who could be played by any demographic at peak then maybe

Disgusting ass thread

she has been trying to be lana “cool” yk indie all Americana

Taylor Swift is not even close to MJ and the Beatles and you teeny boppers ain't gonna push this narrative. She's like Justin Bieber or Nsync or Backstreet boys level artistically and culturally

also that, when we compare her hits to someone like Rihanna or even Katy Perry.. eh

Its scary to think about Taylor Swift being MJ level. I'll say shes MJ level in the US, she's definitely not international level. She's American as Apple Pie, and thats what kill her worldwide appeal some.(of course you have some fans that love her internationally but shes not MJ or Beatles level)

Taylor’s concerns are dead unserious

Taylor lacks a certain universal appeal like other popstars (Love Story and Shake It Off are her most universal hits), but her massive success comes from the fact that she appeals to WOMEN (no, not just white girls). Her lyrics, music videos, photoshoots, even internet posts… And I don’t even think that’s manufactured. That’s just her.

In theory, she shouldn’t be relatable. She’s from a wealthy family, has been in the music industry since very young, today she’s rich and famous asf… but she makes her music and her visuals and performances in a way that it’s relatable to girls.

Just like we have a bunch of men that see themselves on Drake

Thing about that though is that only strongly appealing to women is the #1 reason she will never be The Beatles/MJ big. They had both genders absolutely freaking out over them and they had hits on hits that everyone will know for the rest of our lives. Taylor will probably go down in the top 10 biggest of all time, but she will never be top 2 with them.

Taylor Swift is like Pepsi while MJ and Beatles are like Coca Cola. While both brands are massive, which person in a remote villiage will they recognize easily?

few have done it like her

Still intentional use of idiomatic language for universal appeal like Haters gonna hate, especially since it’s the hook phrase

Honestly though, Taylor barely even an entertainer like MJ, nowhere as good of an like any of The Beatles.

Be assassinated during her peak probably

2016

folklore and evermore

maybe 1989 and folklore but otherwise nah

drake is taylor for men

s***s ass

you r so real

Have a fanbase that isn't predominantly white by a very large margin
