Taylor swift’s sales don’t really do anything for me because I know how many of them are fraudulent. Beehive constantly gets into fight about how they can’t organize streaming or buying parties which means all of bets sales are coming from people who genuinely just love her work. Meanwhile someone else is running a parasocial empire and modding the charts to appear more successful than she actually is. She’s like one of those directors (who love to call themselves Arteurs) creating mysticism about themselves.

RIAA certifications and many of the metrics that Beyoncé holds are really impressive. This is why there are many political courses on how beyonces impact is uncharted territory. Beyoncé has sold music for American USD $ and people have purchased real tickets with money that people with jobs worked for and those metrics represent major cultural significance given the dollars from some communities who support bey could be used in other ways that might economically benefit those communities a bit more

The fact that we’re still comparing Taylor swift to thee Beyoncé Knowles is literally comical. I just can’t.

tory and everybody who be gawking at his coonish behavior work under the belief that black womans body is owed to them. they’re entitled to it, so nobody is double checking why meg is getting demonized for getting shot, and nothing else. it’s fucking weird to be up meg’s ass for the crime of being a fucking victim! it doesn’t even click that meg could’ve died, she could’ve gotten an infection and lost a leg, anything, bc she isn’t really a human to them, just a figurehead of a group they despise (black woman). but for tory, ohhh poor black man who’s getting a decade behind bars, so tragic, now we’re so empathetic and we remember black people are human beings…
the fact that she spoke at all pissed them off because black woman shouldn’t have the audacity to speak up for themselves. then that irritation doubled with seeing meg’s fanbase and loudest cheerleaders being black woman, so that side of the internet was mad and was like ‘oh yall unionizing?’ and had decided to harass and berate meg ever since. you already touched on a lot of this like last month and honestly for like three years but whew i feel my heart palpitating with anger.

I don't listen to music w/ a calculator, so the numbers don't matter that much to me. BUTTTT when I saw that tweet w/ Bey's updated certifications and it just kept going lmaooo!!! swifties hold on to taylor's numbers bc she can't compare in any other arena, so Beyonce had to put her foot down real quick 🙂↕️
also, for as many dates as the eras tour had, I HOPE taylor made a bajillion dollars!!! the fact that Beyonce made half a billion in six months of renaissance concerts means that she could've milked the tour even more but decided not to

if we wanna deep it, taylor is only as far as she is because she is basic and average; mediocre in every sense of the word and that is relatable to regular folk. she makes them think that their basic and average and mediocre asses can be something too. i mean its nefarious because it comes at the expense of so many genuinely talented musical artists who don’t get a fraction of opportunity or investment…but alas.
if i am giving taylor credit for anything its she is great at business, she knows how to make money doing practically nothing. but then i think, well white folks have always done that (finding a way to generate wealth and power over everyone else) and then i’m back to my initial point that she is nothing extraordinary.

The Eras tour was banking off of nostalgia if we really wanna get mixy. Having a tour as big as the Renaissance tour, a NEW ALBUM, is way more of an accomplishment TO ME, than a huge tour that's essentially a victory lap.
ALSOOO, I don't even want to get into the streaming/7-versions-of-an-album of it all. We are talking about a woman who has been selling millions of records LONG before the streaming era, and back when you'd only get ONE album (MAYBE a deluxe with 2 bonus tracks). Like, I'm a late hive member (self titled is what did me in), but even my ass knew eeeverryy soonngg dating back to Bugaboo days. Not only every song, but every ICONIC PERFORMANCE, which also pushed the songs! I'm sorry but Swifties have "numbers" and it seems like that's it. More and more it's giving...they know their girl can't compete in actual stage talent so they harp on the numbers so bad—that might just be me being a lil mean though.
