It depends on what your tastes are. Link to comment
prettylittleliar_2214 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 If they would stop killing momentum then she would've gotten two top ten hits with WB and Make Me. They keep doing traditional releases, music videos released at the wrong time assuming they weren't canceled and replaced with lesser versions, delayed promo, no radio payola, and weak visual performances when they actually happen. Given her weak airplay throughout her career it makes sense to focus on big visuals, streaming, and sales but they did nothing. Link to comment

Obviously her boost isn't going to be as big. Closer and Make Me were only a month or so old, that's not even comparable. Plus, everyone knows she did a Lemonade medley, so multiple songs get a boost, which is way better than just one song getting a boost. Her entire album benifits, whereas in Britney's case, only Make Me benefits. Link to comment
Legend Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 And if she had released the music videos for Work ***** and Make Me the day of their single release, they would've both been top 10s, there's no question about it. Even if Make Me had a shifty video, it still would've been providing extra streaming numbers. Link to comment

It's not just about sales, it's also about if the gp knows and they really don't know any Bey songs from any of her last two albums. Ehhh I never defend bey, but in people my age, drunk in love, formation, 7/11, partition, and pretty hurts are all well known. However, so is PG, but not MM or SP. Link to comment
Yukisenpi28 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I don't rlly think Britney is all about being as mainstream as she was . I think she is happy being a mom and making music for the fans . I am sure she is over it with bing on top center of attention Just a theory . I think she is in a happy place right now .....but hey she did say she is competitive so that could change.
