@ERHarris76 @MelloMikeUK Not taking away from what Ms Swift is achieving here, just saying that the music industry has moved on from the traditional album rollout for superstar artists, so no big shock that the album has done well.
@ERHarris76 @MelloMikeUK How am I missing the point? They were all silent/surprise releases with ‘zero promotion’.
Taylor Swift is one of the three biggest female artists in the world right now, it was always going to do well.
@MelloMikeUK Lemonade by Beyoncé? Never heard of it.
Thank U, Next by Ariana who?
DAMN by Kendrick Llama or something.
All surprise releases by the biggest names in the world. All were absolutely massive.
Yes, it’s normal.
@MelloMikeUK It is becoming a very normal thing to do. Research has shown that for artists of the size I mentioned, a prolonged album rollout doesn’t work any better than a ‘surprise’ release.
@MelloMikeUK When you get to the size of Taylor Swift, Eminem, Drake etc. You’re not building a fan base anymore, you’re maintaining one, so It makes no difference if you release a song at 2 months or 2 minutes notice.
@cbeell1 For what it’s worth - he’s a statement last night released by a band whose singer was accused of sexual misconduct.
Not perfect, but a much better response than anything that little prick could think up.

@oofertron1 @JoshuaSmith1993 @cbeell1 And before you say “well he didn’t abuse anyone”.
He protected people who did, showed absolutely no shred of remorse or responsibility for giving these sick fucks a platform, and tried to silence those who spoke out. and he’s a racist
Fuck him, and fuck you for defending him.
@oofertron1 @JoshuaSmith1993 @cbeell1 He blocked several people 2 years ago who first bought the allegations to light.
You can see this on @cbeell1’s thread.
Some people can have all the proof they want staring them in the face but will still lick the guys arse. Funny old world we live in. 🤷♂️
