    Oh I never saw this video. It’s basically a perfect launch for the song type Keanu showing up to reveal Cyberpunk lol. HELL YEAH it’s cause of tiktok and the narrative surrounding it making it bigger than it may have normally been off people enjoying it

    It’s like this: people would have enjoyed the song, but this context makes people root for themselves for listening to it - a classic trope of a hero’s chance at victory being metatextually spelled out to the audience for them to decide to get behind it.

    ”Hey y’all know me already from Disney+ and tiktok, I made this enjoyable relatable song for my debut and it has this strong narrative surrounding it (it might also be about my costar who you guys also know)”

    Psychological s*** it’s crazy, a big reason The Avengers made so much money

    I can’t believe I’m breaking this down like this for a HS Musical song

    Even if she’s a “plant” , you gotta have sum fye to pull those numbers

    yeah and that fire would be an average to above average voice (no shade but i think almost anyone could sing a hit song with editing), a hit record producer, a hit song writer, and millions upon millions of dollars pushing you

    It was a surprise drop type thing too. Imagine for us if Kendrick hopped on ig live to announce a song/video he’s dropping on the same day w/an explanation of the narrative about the song

    That’s what this was with her dropping this and announcing it with that tiktok video for her audience

  • That lil girl really got ktt in shambles lmao

    it’s not that good of an album cause of the bloated tracklist and random tracklisting. The songs on it are mostly good to great to even timeless.

    As in if the label is essentially directly putting money in to result in plays

    Like buying playlist spots - essentially those playlists are gonna be listened regardless of what song is on there so it’s essentially paying for plays
