New Song: Taylor Swift – ‘The Archer’

Published: Tuesday 23rd Jul 2019 by Sam

Taylor Swift has served up another taste of new album ‘Lover.’

Ahead of the LP’s August 23rd arrival, the Pop titan has hatched ‘The Archer.’

While preceding offerings ‘ME!’ and ‘You Need To Calm Down’ were unashamed in their Pop bop ambitions, ‘Archer’ skews slower and more whimsical.

Take a listen below…

While the change of pace is welcome, this didn’t move us. Did it move you?

    That record executive is going to laugh his face off when this album flops

    • Jasmine July 23, 2019

      Yes indeed. Another basic ass song from a basic ass white bi.tch! She would not have made it as a star in the 90s. She ain’t cute like Britney or Christina used to be, she can’t dance like Britney or J. Ho could, and she can’t sing like Shania, Christina, Leann Rhymes, or Faith Hill. Thus, she is overhyped basic white trash the media shoves down the public’s throat.

      BTW Why does her hair ALWAYS looks a mess? I bet it smells like wet dog.

      • Jasmine July 24, 2019

        Shut it trolls! By now you should be used to my opinions and how I express myself. I am not a racist but if u perceive me to be a racist that is YOUR problem and YOUR issue. It is NOT illegal to be racist! I have done nothing wrong by writing my little opinions on here. Like I always say:

        1. TGJ should install a BLOCK feature on here so u can block me and vice verse!

        2. If you don’t like my opinions don’t read them!

        3. Keep seething and staying mad.

        Hey TRASHmine he/she what ethnic heritage are you?

      • Jasmine July 24, 2019

        Gutter trash ? f.aggot u wish I was a ‘heshe’ and u wish I would engage in conversation with u. U are SLOW. I only speak down to garbage like u or dont even respond. U do not get to ask me questions. We are not equals. U are vile scum! Why can’t u get along with ur life instead of being obsessed with me u pathetic little man? U are pathetic. Very pathetic.

        BTW I’m the type of race that could order to have your head chopped off with the click of my fingers just for speaking to me. Keep it up and your end will be now instead of later. I strongly advise u to get a life and enjoy it rather than being obsessed with me! Life is too short to waste it cyber bullying people that don’t share ur point of view!

      • Black Jasmine, The REAL Princess Jasmine Okurrr. July 24, 2019

      Good for them, I’m glad her soundtrack is debuting in the top 3. Another win for the Lion King Franchise as a whole.

    • ??? July 23, 2019

      lmaooooo gurrrl, roach flopping even harder than first predicted lmfaooooo!!!! and dead at the delusional roach who called this a win for the franchise lmfaooooo bishhh where, at the dollar store? Lmfaooooo ? ?? ?? ? #11kyonce #TheFLOPPINGking

      • Jasmine July 23, 2019

        LOL U know it’s summertime. People spraying Raid to keep the roaches down. Bey is better with a fall or spring release. Lemonaide came out in the spring time so likely the follow up album Koolade will be released in the spring too.

      • ??? July 23, 2019

        lmaoooo and she’ll flop again just like the last 3 times lmfaooooo ? ?

    • MessyBoots July 23, 2019

      WHY IS NO ONE COMING FOR ED SHEERAN ON TGJ?

      His last project released in 2017 sold 456k SPS and 322k pure sales.

      This latest album is considered to be his 4th studio album. He I’d one of the biggest, highest selling (white) Male pop stars in the world..

      So are his numbers considered a flop as well, despite a Top 10 w/ Bieber and landing at No.1?

      Is he a flop or is it only when Bey has mediocre sales?

      • Jasmine July 23, 2019

        Because he is supposed to be a nobody compared to Bey. Bey is the bigger star so a lessor is not going to be talked about when he beat a superstar’s sales. Those articles about Tidal lying about Lemonjuice’s numbers must have been right. I’m a Bey fan but when Lemonjuice came out I was forced to free download it because I don’t want a Tidal subscription! Bey and Jay’s greed always gets in the way like with the Lion Kinf soundtrack. A remake flick don’t need two soundtracks. Bey only was in the flick for 18 minutes total. She acting like the movie is hers. Nah it’s just a remake of a classic film. I played the original soundtrack last night and loved the creativity. Any remake of that is automatically a lessor cause u are remaking not creating!

      • Theman July 23, 2019

        His latest record is a collaborative album that’ll probably still go platinum. And it sold more than Beyonce’s latest release in its first and second week.

      • MessyBoots July 23, 2019

        @theman ED SHEERAN’S new album is listed as his FOURTH STUDIO ALBUM.

        His last record sold 456k SPS AND 322k pure sales in 2017… to go from that to 70-75k to 16-19k pure sales is a HUGE drop off regardless.

        Also, Ed Sheeran is a massive star on mainstream radio at the moment. He’s even bigger than Beyonce on radio actually. Bey is more ICONIC and legendary but he is the bigger CURRENT pop star.

        So the question remains.. why does a super hot artist like Sheeran have a Top 10 on the Hot 100 and an album filled w/ the hottest current artists and he can only deliver 16-19k pure sales?!?!

        That must mean he FLOPPED as well. #Keepthatsameenergy

      • SMH July 24, 2019

        Because Ed Sheeran’s fans don’t get on social media dragging every artist that sells better than him, or any other male artist that doesn’t match his sales. The roach hive is always the first ones to talk sh* t about Rihanna, Ciara, Gaga, etc when they don’t sell well, now they wanna get butthurt because their fave flopped 3 times in row, more than any of those girls ever did. Theyre only getting the nice cup of karma that they deserve.

      • Ropeburn July 24, 2019

        Because “The Shape of You” was a massively successful record that was no.1 in the U.S. for 12 weeks! It was no.1 in Canada for 16 weeks! And it was no.1 in a bunch of other countries as well. None of these collabos on his new album has been anywhere near as successful as that song. You can’t expect to have huge sales on every album. Unless your name is Adele. Plus I get the feeling that many of his fans don’t really care for these rent-a-rappers he put on the album. People are going in on Beyonce because her hype machine is irritating so anytime she doesn’t do to well they’re gonna enjoy rubbing it in her face.

    • GaGa’s Tampon July 23, 2019

      WAIT!!!!
      So The Gift’s initial predictions have been revised down?????
      Whew I AM SHOOK!!!

    • King of Kingz July 24, 2019

      Ya dumb ass do realize this is a soundtrack album the same way Kendrick made the soundtrack for Black Panther right & the difference here is, the lion king didn’t feature any songs but spirit from the one she produced. Ya’ll wanna see black women fail so bad tho smh. Ya’ll really sound dumb cuz this is ain’t her 7th album thus why there’s other artists songs on it.

      • Jasmine July 24, 2019

        I disagree with the Kendrick Lamar comparison. Black Panther only had 1 soundtrack and the movie was original. Lion King has 2 soundtracks and the movie is a remake. With Lion King, the question is which soundtrack does one buy?

        1. Bey is only in the movie 18 minutes.
        2. Bey’s song Spirit was overhyped without it being a hit like Kendrick & Sza’s song.
        3. People don’t like being fed something. The whole album blatantly appears like Bey’s obvious money grab by milking her little role in a remake flick into something more than what it was.
        4. There really should only be 1 soundtrack for this remake film and I’m sure Bey could have been included as a producer along with Elton John and Pharrell.
        5. Bey’s greed is too obvious lately. I know her mortgage and monthly house upkeep notes are pushing 200K for the property in CA alone but she ain’t got to be so obvious with the hustle!

        Thus, Bey’s greed is what is sabotaging these projects (aka money grabs)….Homecoming & Lion King.

        She should chill out and take her time making a good solo album because these flops make investors question her relevancy when her brand is certainly is relevant. Why the relevancy is not translating into sales is her fault. I bet if Adele did a Coachella Homecoming or a Lion King Special the projects would well a couple million each at minimum because Adele ‘seems’ sincere and authentic. The light skin black girl with long curly weave who dances in front of a bunch of dark bald chicks will always be questioned on motives? I know that from personal exoerience!

      • SMH July 24, 2019

        NIce excuse. If it had sold well and went #1, yall would be claiming it as her 7th album and you know it. You don’t get to pick and choose her flops, keep that same energy that yall had when you thought she would be #1. This is her album.

    • stormiscomimg July 24, 2019

      Flopeyoncé

      • Clocking the fake Beyonce haters July 24, 2019

        Nobody on either of the Beyonce fan pages/groups have said this is her 7th album even before it came out we were still saying how we’re waiting for the 7th album. This long essay for why you hate Beyonce is crazy…now that so much time has gone by for you to keep commenting the same thing over and over and worrying about how many albums are pure sales vs streaming you can just stop.

  3. Tyty July 23, 2019

    I wonder who she will blame when the album flops ??

    • Jasmine July 23, 2019

      It won’t flop! She has white privilege! Walmart, Target, and Best Buy already made deals with her label to have 8x the amount of her album’s physical copies available in their stores compared to other new releases. That means she is guaranteed a number one after her streaming numbers are added on top of that!

      • Carlitos July 23, 2019

        Are you slow? WHITE PRIVILEGE has NOTHING to do with it. Maybe if BLACK PEOPLE SUPPORTED BLACK ARTISTS, we couldn’t be having THIS conversation. Hell, and I’m not even white to UNDERSTAND. Fkng incompetent, dumbass!

      • SMH July 23, 2019

        You’re an idiot if you honestly don’t believe that white privilege is fueling this girl’s career.

      • Jasmine July 23, 2019

        Carlitos shut it! I’ll give ur ‘slow incompetent’ ass a homework assignment.

        India.Arie, Chaka Kahn, and Ciara are black artists who released albums in the last couple months. Go to Your nearest Walmart, Target, or Best Buy and don’t go home till you find their CDs in a store. Keep driving from store to store till you learn that u have to have white privilege for your album to be sold in their stores! For each store you go note all the numerous Taylor Swift and Katy Perry and copies available for purchase but how they make it impossible to purchase (aka ‘support’) black artists!

        White privilege is real. if u are black and unwilling to acknowledge white privilege then you are a delusional cooooon that will get nowhere in life except being a subordinate for a white person! WAKE UP

      • Jasmine July 23, 2019

        Target:

        Ciara – Beauty Marks “Not in stores”:

        Katy Perry – every CD, CD/ DVD package, special edition, etc are available in stores and online.

        Case Closed. You owe me an apology!

      • Carlitos July 23, 2019

        Of course white privilege is a thing. Did I deny that? NO! However, it is irrelevant for the situation you’re talking about. You’re throwing words and meanings towards things that aren’t making sense. If all those artists that you just listed sold in numbers such a as Katy and Taylor, you bet your ass they’d have their exclusive bundles with those stores. Why wouldn’t any business want to bank on any of their artists if they’re selling records, regardless of race. You’re clearly looking to put blame on race, which is pathetic and cowardly. Look at the bigger picture as opposed to constantly blame EVERYTHING on a racial issue.

      • Jasmine July 23, 2019

        I do NOT subscribe to assimilation! It is racially motivated that blacks singers are not given the opportunity to sell physical copies to older fans! Target, Best Buy, and Walmart have the monopoly on physical albums for retail. They dictate how many physical albums are available for sell through them. The charts do not care how many actual copies were purchased by consumers. The charts track how many physical copies were ordered for resale by Walmart, Target, and Best Buy. This, why you HIDE behind your delusion this is not racially motivated I have my eyes wide open to the blatant discrimination that is going on against black r&b singers. Perhaps if you did the homework assignment you would see the blatant racial discrimination in front of you. Simply put, black r&b singers are blocked from competing white basic white artists like Taylor and Katie. Kanye was right when he snatched that award from Taylor and gave it to Beyonce. Taylor did not deserve the win against Betonce.

      • stormiscomimg July 24, 2019

        You racist b*tch

      • Tyty July 24, 2019

        I never said she isn’t going to get a number 1 but she is not going to do the numbers she has done in the past… Just like her last album when it was all said and done only done about 4 million this will even be lower. That’s a flop in my eyes but she deserves it since she is very mediocre and it’s about time people saw that.

    • TaylorSwift4LIFE July 26, 2019

      She has 34 million subscribers and listeners, id like to see you write a song. Sure the archer is nit the best song in the world, well yes it is horrible but that does not mean you have to pick on her, she has always been a sucsess, she stands up for gay people, she was called a snake but turned into a butterfly, but, still, she still gets hate from fat losers that are bored with ther lufe, and ima tell yall rn, im 12 yrs old and i f****** know better.

  4. Sjl July 23, 2019

    I’m a white man and white privilege is very real. Racism is very much alive. White people only have wealth because of slaves building this country into what it is. In my opinion, Black Americans should receive reparations for their ancestor’s unpaid s**** labor. Donald Trump and his followers are ignorant which is a nice way of saying they’re f****** idiots.

  5. Andi Loh July 23, 2019

    This song is fire. Best she’s released in awhile.

    • Fancy BISH July 23, 2019

      Homegirl been listening to Time After Time and Kate Bush lol…this is much better than the last two!

  6. Bey Best July 23, 2019

    I love how this post about Taylor has become about Beyonce’s flop in the comments section, especially how the BeyHIVe is coming up with every defense possible. The FleaHIVe is worse than the KenBarbZzzzzzzz

    • Clocking the fake Beyonce haters July 23, 2019

      Lol you and the rest of the Beyonce fans brought her up lmao. And you highlighting the h I and v in Beyhive grow up man. You’re probably getting an under from being so negative and stressing about her everyday not selling the amount of albums you hoped for.

  7. GaGa’s Tampon July 23, 2019

    Sigh…
    This era is really shaping up to be an uninspired mess.

  8. MessyBoots July 23, 2019

    Noooo Taylor! This sounds like a 1989 leftover.

  9. Dosharon July 24, 2019

    I’m f****** sick and tired of hearing american singers destroy my language which is french without taking any information. We say : COMBA without any “T” in the end… and this is the same for Iggy with her “Como des garrrçons” f*** if you can’t even speak a language don’t do it at all !

  10. LUCKI July 24, 2019

    Taylor’s days of being a huge selling pop titan are slowly coming to an end. She’s turning 30 this year and will soon be aged out. Her style of pop music is no longer “in” and her character has been questioned far too much within the last year alone. But still, an underperformance (don’t want to say “FLOP” just yet) by her terms would certainly be a huge success artists for most these days.
