Because she is a industry plant jammed down our throats :trash_throw_away_recycle:

Yes, she's proven to be talented, but her family and industry connections have paid her way too...

Yeah, I just think it's odd how people were dragging and calling her a flop and still are because it's 'underperforming' compared to her first album. 

I thik it comes with the territory. Masses kind of loves to build up people to tear them appart. 

Although i am not a huge fan of her jazzy sound, I love the fact that she is doing her own thing instead of trying to follow the next trend.

Ironically it's always the full fledged pop stans that hate on our main pop women the most. I guess it's just the current internet culture and trend to do that. I think this is deserved, I love her music and this album is definitely my cup of tea.

What was your favorite song?

Didn't she have some pre-add gimmick going on on Apple Music? Besides 230k isn't that impressive since it was only the 5th largest sales week of the year. For someone who's supposedly a cultural icon, that's actually quite low. :billie_eilish_green_chuckle_cackle_lol_lmao_haha_hehe_laugh:

She debuted with 240k units*. Plus, the album is projected to stay #1 for another week. I'd rather the record have consistent sales and then have a huge boom in its first week and then have lackluster sales onwards.

Everybody saying big hits.

Her debut album only had one hit and that was Bad Guy, she never intended to be a singles artist and her hot 100 record shows that, people love the singles now as it's part of a cohesive album, meaning nothing stands out by itself, but as an album it stands out completely as the full 16 tracks tell a story, which is rare in a Music industry consumed by singles as Beyonce said in 2011, albums are rare it's single after single tol they burn out fast, then repeat. 

Which some saw As shade To Rihanna, who made Anti, which I see influenced Billie alot, as you can tell there's no mainstream influences just influences from artists and genres her fans wouldn't know about like Bossa Nova which was a huge jazzy pop sound in the 60s..

Pre adds is no gimmick, apple Music is a streaming service catered to the album, Pre Adding is literally Pre ordering in terms of streaming. 

 

You can't pre add or pre save literally on any other streaming service..

Plus, it wasn't like WWAFA, which was the biggest era of 2019 had the biggest first week sales of 2019. Wasn't it the 3rd or 4th biggest debut sales. So technically, it is just a drop of 1 or 2 positions so how exactly is it bad again? :billie_eilish_green_chuckle_cackle_lol_lmao_haha_hehe_laugh:
