The world: Calls out the Taylor Swift for destroying the planet, worsening the quality of life for people that are directly susceptible to climate change, and making earth uninhabitable for future generations.

Just went to my target and those physicals are collecting dust. I don’t think her label anticipated such a historic collapse. I wonder how long before they go on clearance. Those poor seagulls.
1.114M - 114k - 80k - 60k - 48k.
Largest % declines from debut week into week 2 in the US 🇺🇸 this decade. (>250k album debuts)
1. Folklore — 84%
2. Midnights — 80% [projected]
3. Fearless TV — 80%
4. MOTS7 — 80%
5. Chromatica — 77%
6. Proof — 76%
7. Red TV — 74%
8. RENAISSANCE — 73%
9. Harry’s House — 69%
No female album released in the US after 30 has more total sales than 30’s first week sales (839k).
The closest is RENAISSANCE with 837k after 11 weeks.
Can we talk about the willowfication of Anti Hero? This song debuted with 17.4M [spotify]💀

Easy on Me: 4.496M
Anti-Hero: 2.494M

Anti-Hero: 2.494M
RENAISSANCE is predicted to exit the top 10 of the Billboard 200 this week, after a mere 946,000 units sold. 🙁 For comparison,
@Adele
’s 30 exited in the same timeframe but sold 2,123,000 units.
Oh Adele, your enemies will defeat themselves before you get the chance to swing.
Taylor Swift breaks the record for the biggest yearly sales this century for any artist with 22M albums sold.
The record was previously held by Michael Jackson in 2009 with ~21M albums.
A year ago today,
@Adele
released “Easy On Me.”
The track marked her first new music in nearly 6 years and broke streaming records upon release. It was met with critical acclaim, spent 10 weeks at
#1
in the US and has amassed over 1 billion streams on Spotify alone.
An album with 5 diamond eligible singles but only 3M album sales in an era where digital sales were at its peak. The ingredients of her downfall were there from the start, we just had to look closer.
12 years ago today,
@KatyPerry
released ‘Teenage Dream.’
The album cemented Perry’s status as a pop titan, topping charts worldwide and spawning a record five
#1
singles in the US. It’s certified 9x Platinum by
@RIAA
and earned 7 Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year.
Why are you all making excuses for Rihanna “it’s a slow song” “did that with a ballad,” as if the current day peak record holder isn’t a ballad? She fumbled her comeback. An egregious event.
Feels like a good day to remind everyone that Taylor Swift holds a total of zero All-Time records. Adele, certified legend of her time, owns the debut week record, the Spotify day record, the digital sales week record, the digital album sales record, and has the best-selling fem-

30 week 4 - 183k
Midnights week 4 - 189k
6k difference despite one debuting with 839k and the other with 1.578M. This collapse is legendary.
Pure sales:
30 - 147k
Midnights - 53k
Over 50 mins of Renaissance’s 1hr 2m runtime consists of sampled sound and interpolated beats alone. All while averaging 3 writers per song for mediocre lyrics.
Her sound engineers basically turned her covid dance playlist into an album. Original musicianship is lost.
Anti-hero won’t make it past the 20 week recurrent rule btw. Midnights sales have fallen flat making it the most front loaded album since Born This way. And those remixes are almost as desperate as Gaga’s 0.99c stunt.
Will it even spend as much weeks at

as 30?

Congratulations Taylor Swift on being the most streamed woman on Spotify! No artist alive is as desperate and chart hungry as you. Unfortunately the

hex Adele put on you in 2012 is still potent because you’re behind Bad Bunny on the daily streams chart. You never truly win🧣
Swifites have been so scared of Adele for the better half of a decade, that now they’ll say anything to convince themselves she’s over because Taylor had a slightly bigger album💀

Vegas begins in 3 weeks. 30 rose this week. It’s safe to say it won’t leave Billboard anytime soon.
Don’t fall for prophecies and propaganda from certain fandoms. 30 is coming.
Why did I wake up to Beyoncé stans picking a fight with us? And unprovoked. I feel like they should be more concerned with Renaissance’s impending tankery and less about 30’s pure sales considering:
30’s WW pure = 3,700,000
Lemonade + The Lion King + Renaissance = 3,645,000

2. Oh My God - 1.633M
Wow 30 came and went.
If Adele keep making the same music , by the time she releases her 5th or 6th album she'll be outperformed by Beyoncé 8th or 9th album. Taylor is already outperforming her and it's a matter of time for Beyoncé to do the same atp.
Adele just had her biggest day on Spotify since 25 May.
Songs that had their biggest streaming day of 2022 yesterday:
Set Fire to the rain (700,263)

I Drink Wine only changed by +60k on Spotify yesterday. My SFTTR late era hit fantasies are slowly moving to the edge of a precipice. Praying to the gods for a better update tomorrow.

’s 21 spent its 78th and final consecutive week in the top 10 of the Billboard 200; After which it would exit the top 10 for the first time ever. Up to that point, it had already sold 9.8M pure copies in the USA.
Weekly sales of 21 in thread below🪡
The way Adele has matched MJ in so many chart statistics. No one who debuted this century has done that. Adele is the BIGGEST person in music in the 21st century.
It’s a grower I fear. Love the production. Unfortunately there’s no clear hit, and the next 1989 prophecy user hmmmm1228 terrorized us with for the last few weeks seems to be apocryphal. 🎉✨
The views are doing down and down each passing episode. No rumours of lead singles. The website vinyl orders have fallen flat.. This will be the most front-loaded album since BE.

The Bodyguard – 54.9M
21 – 49.1M
LTAL – 46.8M
Come On Over – 46.3M
