    I dont care who says what but this girl is basic AF and I find her super boring but her fans chow everything she puts out… Even if she were to fart I’m sure the fart would go straight to number one on the charts 🤣🤣
    Anyway congrats Swifties 🤭

    And Beyonce sells 29k pure sales in its second week. And yet, all we hear is that it’s such a great album… A great album but you only wanna stream it for free. No one paying for it!

    Taylor is in a league of her own.

    Beyonce is finished. She messed herself up becoming vulgar. She boxed herself out of having a young fan base. Taylor’s music can be played for all ages. Taylor is PG. Beyonce is R-Rated.

    Metacritic: 78% score = D –

    Pitchfork: 6.6 score = D –

    Slate Magazine: “Painful to digest, and quite ‘torturous’. No pun intended.”

    Fans and critics alike all hate the album. She might’ve gotten all the first day streams and sales, but the longevity and response to this album is quite telling.

    Second day sales DROPPED 46%, that’s worse than any artist in 2023 and 2024. Not a single song on this album is a bop, nor deep cut. I’m afraid she’s OVER.

      Nobody cares about that. We care about sales and good vibes

      • UHoesFunny April 22, 2024

        Well then you should be VERY worried 😂 bc this album doesn’t have a single BOP and only broke records the first day and now is SEVERELY declining. Lmfaooo. PATHETIC

      • THE TORTURED SLAYER’S DEPARTMENT April 22, 2024

        LMAOOO GIRL WHAT DO YOU CALL GOING FROM 168k TO 20k? THAT ROACH IS THE DECLINE QUEEN LMAOOO, AND FLOPBOY DOESN’T HAVE ANY BOPS EITHER, JUST A BUNCH OF KIDZ BOP VERSION OF COUNTRY MUSIC LMAOOOO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    • Yo April 22, 2024

      If she sold 1.4 million on the first day, it’s quite normal for sales to drop after.. Are you expecting her to do 1.4 million everyday? And sell 10 million in a week. Lol.
      Youre trying so hard to put a downer on the facct that it’ll be the biggest week in sales since Adele 21 nearly 10 years ago.

    • THE TORTURED SLAYER’S DEPARTMENT April 22, 2024

      LMAO SO SAD, ALL YOU ROACHES HAVE LEFT IS METACRITIC, LITERALLY NOBODY WILL EVER REMEMBER THAT LMAOOO, THEY WILL REMEMBER THAT TAYLOR SQUASHED A ROACH WITH 1.4 MILLION SALES IN A DAY, BUT YOU KEEP ON WITH YOUR LITTLE METACRITIC LMAO🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Metacritic scoring is based on overall music critics data, and it seems that it is a resounding EPIC FAILURE. Tortured Poets Department now sits at a very LOW 60% scoring coming from New York Times, Pitchfork, Slant, Paste, and a few other huge publications. The industry is starting to see that they made a HUGE mistake giving this trash artist a platform to sell mediocre music. Quality is easily not important to this girl and fans and critics alike are finally speaking out about it.
