Katy Perry new single & 5th album

[dabblie]

Exactly. Kylie was just at the start of her campaign with Golden with those sales.

Never mind, I’m sure Katy and Orlando aren’t worrying about mortgage payments 

That part!

And she wakes up next to Orlando every day.

And she's already achieved the kind of success that 99% of pop artists only dream of. She's already broken records, done the Super Bowl, etc.

Okay, but this album is actually really good. Finally got around to listening to it.

It did,but I never thought it'd be this steep, especially considering wall-to-wall promo and ridiculous levels of press exposure - she's been everywhere in the last 3 months,just had a baby and even that isn't helping.

The album has a few okayish songs,the rest is standard fare.It sounds like a mish-mash of sounds done in the hopes something will stick.

One thing is painfully obvious - she needed to adopt a more grown-up image and sound following Prism and the public wasn't interested in the new SJW persona (the haircut especially lol) she adopted early in the Witness era.She quickly started to back away from it,but it seems a significant amount of damage had been done - each new single charted lower and lower and the latest one didn't even trouble the charts.She obviously hasn't grown up along with her audience.It'll be interesting to see where she goes from here.

Perfect example of how an image can destroy a career. She was doing fine with Chained to the rhythm. it was after that it went downhill faster as Gaga's career a few years ago.
Will she have it in her to come-back like here as well?

remember the Janet (and later Kylie) sized Flop emo's
There should be a Katy one now

Right, it’s pretty solid. I’m glad 2020 has a least brought a lot of new pop albums.

Not sure what the she was thinking with the whole clown look....

It's supposed to be some metaphor for how she became a clown that wasn't smiling, and this album is her learning to embrace it and smile.

Edit: Opps! Wrong thread
