mans best friend in bad invalidates this whole list
sales =/= quality
Hence why taylor swift is a billionaire.
Her father, Scott Swift, was a stockbroker for Merrill Lynch and notably purchased a 3% stake in Big Machine Records, the label that first signed Taylor, contributing to her initial success.
Like all billionaires she inherited everything.
How do you know an album’s gender?
It’s easier to find on vinyl
Woman albums cost 12% less.
I don’t listen to music with a calculator
TOOL fans in shambles
Made me think of the KMFDM line ‘our music is sampled, its totally fake. its done my machines Cause they dont make mistakes!’
Mathcore: Am I a joke to you?
I was sharing music with a friend and their reaction upon being shown an artist (not even listening) was "ew less than 100k monthly listens”
bro? is this your metric for good music ? how many people listen to it on Spotify ?
if this is how avg ppl see music it explains a lot about top 40 charts
You could make an argument that if a song is listened a lot, it means a lot of people find it good and thus is could not be bad. But then again, Suicide Squad was a successful movie if you were to base your judgement on popularity.
Funny, cuz lots of the ones who say “ew less than 100k listens” will also say they’re not into pop music. Wondering what they think “pop” is short for lmao
Pop is a genre, and does not necessarily stand for popular music
It’s sadly a very common thing and applies to just about everything. “It’s not popular so it’s automatically bad”, I’m just glad I’m not forced to be around people like that too often.
My mother in law used to refuse to eat in an empty or nearly empty restaurant. On the logic that if it’s empty it must be bad. Never mind that the reason a restaurant is empty often has more to do with location than quality, or that it’s packed for dinner and empty at lunch or vice versa.
Wild, I refuse to go to packed restaurants because my experience will be markedly worse… my favorite time is between 2-4, because everywhere is dead then.
To each their own, I guess.
Oddly enough, I’m on the opposite side. Popularity ruins good things. I’m probably just bitter and cynical though. And that’s also not to say that there aren’t things with massive popularity that are also good.
this is also why vote manipulation is a thing. people are prejudiced by the appearance of a consensus.
I remember getting made fun of in middle school for listening to Nevermind, you know just a landmark in rock music because it was at the time almost 10 years old. Sigh.
So what are the names of the albums for those who want to verify?
What makes an album “female”?
When the album identifies as one.
This was easier to figure out with CDs /s
All CDs have holes. None of them have penises.
Yeah, but then they tried going all woke in the late 90s with the CD-RW stuff and data reassignment procedures.
Wait until you hear what they did to serial cables.
RadioShack needed to be shut down for providing so many male-to-female adapters
“The drives! They’re making the CDs gay!”
rude
If she covers her CD case when you talk to her, she’s a female album.
Aw, I like Laufey 😭😭
Man, I don’t know shit about modern music evidently.
I too, am old now.
It just came out, which probably why it’s not on here, but I really enjoyed The Spinning Wheel by Mediæval Bæbes
Ohhh thanks for that!
I’ve been listening to them since I found their first album at the ren faire, haha
Who’s the top right one?
Everyone tastes like something
Putting Man’s Best Friend and Life of a Showgirl on the same level is slander
Yeah! Sabrina is way better than Taylor!
~ I don’t actually hold this opinion. I don’t actually give a fuck at all. But I do like them both just fine ~
Which is supposed to be the better album?
I don’t listen to either artist and don’t care for either of them from what I’ve heard on the radio and at malls so I’m not the best person to judge. I’m curious what your thoughts are though (and what the general consensus is).
I mean It is just a matter of opinion if course, but I think the common consensus was that this was not Taylor’s greatest work, and Manchild is one of if not Sabrina Carpenter’s biggest song right now.
I personally was never the biggest fan of modern pop music but it’s been starting to grow on me.
Ah, good to know, thanks. Not sure I’ll ever need the info but I’m always curious on what’s popular, even if it’s not something I’m interested in. I know of both artists but don’t know much music from either and don’t care to. But it’s cool to see what’s seen as better or worse by the general fanbase.
Personally the more popular an artist or band is, the less likely I’ll enjoy their music.
This is broadly speaking and not universal, there are big exceptions like radiohead, massive attack, aphex twin, BICEP and tool, but for the most part, if something is in the charts, I’m probably going to hate it
No Wet Leg?
Came here to say this. moisturizer is great!
They are not a female-only band, tho.
Aw man, I loved their last album. I never realized they released another. I was listening to The Scholars by Car Seat Headrest for a good portion of last year.
