Even an utter flop like Run The World (Gheys) has more streams and impact than Jeannette's discoraphy.

[MENTION=31471]RayRay[/MENTION]: 'Together Again' is a nice song. My favorite song by Janet Jackson is probably 'Someone to Call My Lover', closely followed by 'All For You'.

Oh wow so I just saw that Dance Monkey is blowing up in the US now too.
It will probably block any other song from going #1 for all of December.

Originally posted by stevyy View Postsaying albums are irrelevant goes against everything a music fan should believe in. So you do not want your faves to make music? Because the album is THE collection of an artists music in a certain time-frame. the single is rather irrelevant.

outdated concepts like that won't get you far when you're trying to understand what young people like and why they like what they like
hits and social media influence are the 2 main factors to look at, with touring playing a minor role and albums being almost completely irrelevant

I can enjoy a good song irrespective of an act's gender, ethnicity or sexuality.

You are right. I believe that single performance can make you turn into a celebrity, while album success makes the difference between a celebrity and a star as acts with a long and stable career at least had one defining big album.
[MENTION=27834]Rihab[/MENTION]: You're mostly talking about young people, while the majority of the population in Western countries are 40 years old and older. And I believe that we need to consider different needs depending on the respective part of society. Capital Bra is successful in the singles department, but will he have a sustainable impact on the contemporary music landscape? I feel like he's the kind of act who'll be considered a 'child of its time' in years to come. Like Wilson Phillips back in the day...Last edited by theMathematician; Wed November 27, 2019, 21:27.

Imo, it has more to do with the fact that popular music goes through cycles. At the moment, rap dominates all other genres and rap is still a male-dominated genre. Women dominated when pop dominated from 2005-2013 and they will make a comeback when pop makes a comeback OR when more women break into rap (we're already seeing this on a national level with Aya Nakamura in France and Juju / Shirin / Loredana in Germany).

Originally posted by stevyy View Posthits are irrelevant... albums equivalents are the thing to be looking at in GER. Adele, Connor and Helene are the only ones with great sales in that department... and P!nk maybe too. However, P!nk has been around for too long to be up with them, especially with them German galz.
