Taylor hype is manufactured.
Don’t compare her to MJ
How?
I ask cause I don't know s*** about her
finally they got her @CutiePieHole get itt !)
Last time I felt an artist was “huge” (could be nostalgia)
Wayne’s run 06-10
Drake’s run now
50’s 02-08
Like Ye was killing it but cause of outside s*** it never felt like he was THAT guy that everyone loved cause of antics
All I'm saying is that yes, Taylor is massive rn, but this whole narrative that she's so big, the biggest stardom of the century, the biggest star since MJ feels extremely forced and manufactured. Especially when I can easily mention multiple massive eras from the past years with more impact outside their fanbases and bigger hits
And in my opinion, the biggest stardoms of this century still belong to Justin and Gaga in the early 10s.
thinking gaga was bigger than taylor is now is crazy
These streaming era participation gift chart placements got yall f***ed up
Dangerous era MJ gave birth to the Super Bowl, did the biggest televised interview in history & had the first short film of the era premier to 500 million people
Give it a rest

gag the live
Oh, and yes, Bruno Mars' first era (2010-12) which was bizarrely massive to the point when even grandmas from rural Vietnam probably know deep cuts from that album (Marry You, Talking To The Moon, etc) 😭
gag the live
Justin Bieber twice.
2010-12 (bieber fever)
2015-17 (when even straight men became stans)
gagging ahhhh
and that has how much significance? You're not special
Idk if you can make it 2023 without ever hearing a Taylor song that's pretty f***in wild.
Dude must not have left his cave in over a decade
She on pace to make >$2B on this tour she already beat out 2+ year long tours in one leg…idk she having a crazy moment and you can’t ignore those numbers. Idc for her but you can clearly see the impact
thinking gaga was bigger than taylor is now is crazy
she was, tho! the music videos, the hits, the fashion, the controversies, the illuminati allegations!
and all this overexposure led to artpop underperforming. people were sick of her... then she had to reintroduce herself with a star is born

tour success/size of venues, sales, amount of hits, overexposure
i dont see that gaga era surpassing taylor era in terms of any of those even though yes i agree it was a huge era
illuminati allegations
She doesn’t even touch 2016 or 2018 Drake
All her sales are manufactured by manipulating the charts cause she knows her rabid stans will buy the 20th remix of a song that already came out bundled with some other bullshit
No one plays Taylor Swift anywhere aside from her stans
Lol she's definitely way bigger than Drake

and it spent how many weeks at #1 on the Hot 200? The narrative bacl then was that MJ got replaced by Grunge and the new hip hop kids. He was getting outsold by Nirvana. At least in the States.
