Most delusional and sad threads I've seen in the booth.

 

[Da King]

No wonder, it's because she's with Sony. They got Beyonce, Adel, and Michael Jackson. They got Future too.

 

[muzikfrk75]

A lot of overweight women who can relate to an overweight woman singin about heart breaks n shyt

White trash love it

What about the Human Jukebox tho?

Cac privelage


And if you think I'm lying just remember the highest selling RAP artist of all time is also a cac

Exactly. Not sure why people are surprised a fat, white and depressed woman is so popular.

"oh look you can be overweight and don't let people shame you for being unhealthy"

America is overweight

 

[Kobes Two Jerseys]

I think her thing works well today because in an age where musicians are over marketed to us through eeverything but music as consumers, this is probably a breath of fresh air.

Artists usually blow up in the context of their times imo but listening to her album though. its full of ballads that could have came out in the 80s so maybe you are right lol, its like throwback music

If Kelly Price came out today, she is not selling 3 mills.

Its their record labels.
Its their distribution companies.
Its their charts.
Its their social media sites.
Its their television avenues.
Its their newspapers.
Its their magazines.
Its their billboards.
Its their streaming sites.
Its their news stations.
Its their money.
Its their venues.
Its their radio stations.
Its their booking agencies.

p.s. They're the largest demographic that buy music.

ya nikkas delusional.

Don't listen to her music but still

 

[gtj1982]

Why is she so marketable? What draws so many people to buying her music?

Even Taylor Swift ain't selling these many records.

Simple she is a heart broken average looking chubby white girl. She caters to the largest relatable demographic.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Why does everyone disregard that

A) your favorite rapper is probably making easily disposable music. You see how quickly a Drake record comes and goes? The music is generic as fukk and all of it is sounding the same.

B) Adele has a ton of older fans who will still purchase music because they don't stream or pirate as much as the younger crowd.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

nikkaz that probably haven't bought a rap album in 10 years complaining

I bought Kendrick and Future and a few others..

 

[OG Talk]

Everyone keeps pointing out how her fans are fat, ugly, sad and desperate so they can relate to her..

Maybe if your favorite rapper made music that was more relatable to average people instead of bragging about how much money, clothes, cars and hoes he had, he could do numbers closer to Adele too

 

[Insensitive]

Na..... White people just dont download cds

Black people with good music would be getting them numbers too if cats stopped trynna pirate they shyt.

Then niccas wonder why cats start catering to other races after awhile

Now white people don't pirate music.

Threads like these always become some sorta indictment of black people whether it's that
their music isn't any good (Hip Hop and R&B) thus it sells less OR we just don't buy any music.
Cats can't it a buck and say Adele is clearly a product of great music, the right skin and a powerful machine.

Like the average black indie singer is gonna catch fire even if the music is fukking fantastic (an trust me, I know several
who fit the bill...)

 

[Uncle Kendrick]

I think the reason she's selling major like this is because the general public is starving for authentic soul music which Adele brings to the table. The cookie cutter instant microwave pop song is played out and people aren't spending there hard earned dollars on meaningless records that will be forgotten by the next month. Adele is providing relatable and timeless soul music in a time where everything on the radio sounds alike.
