The industry needs Adele and Eminem to hurry up and release their new projects. The problem is that there are WAY too many sissy pop chicks out who only appeal to 14 year old girls and gay guys: the two most fickle audiences in the world, who don't know anything else but iTunes and phone apps. If you can appeal to an 18-35 y/o straight alpha male audience you'll sell. That group buys CDs. So does the over 30 crowd. Real talk, if the bulk of your fan base was born after 1992, is female and/or gay, then you only selling singles. Your albums ain't doing shit.
