Keys?
Didn't even know she had a new album out
Her promo or lack thereof was honestly horrendous though. These days if you don't get on twitter, IG or bsource for 2-3 days, u won't know SHIT about who is dropping an album for real (outside of the major girls of course) :dead: it's crazy as fuck now
She did just kinda TOSS this mess out but SHEESH
I didn't know it was out until that thread and I still haven't listened...
Doja is slaying
That's not true at all! She had some decent promo. Nobody was interested that's it! She had ads all over my Twitter and I never Google her.
Hmmmm
Not less than 30k with a double album
Eek
:shook:
Had NO idea she had an album out at all. And I have been seeing her doing interviews and shit all over social media talking about doing Verzuz w/ Bey and Rih. And about the VMAs performance w/ Lil Mama. But I dunno. I've just lost all interest in an Alicia Keys album.
I think it would be cute if she did a duets album like what Lady Gaga has been doing w/ Tony Bennett, or like what Toni did w/ Babyface. She can do an album w/ Stevie Wonder or something. I think I'd listen to something like that from her to see what it gives, or at least she can scoop up a couple grammys.
no one has checked for alisha since she sang horribly at whitneys funeral
And yea, Doja is fucking slaying. RCA using all their Normani budget to push her project and I dont blame them.

and honestly I wouldn't even say it was that completely cus she was still doing well for 4-5 years after the whole Swizz mess
I think it was her being pretentious with the whole makeupless mess and her shoving that Love is Light! Blended family! Mess down everybody's throat
And the fact that she started making more misses than hits
Girl on fire is a terrible song btw
her downfall should've started there

What really killed her off was them 2-3 dry albums before this one. It makes it hard to really get excited about whatever she's doing right now for a lot of people, i think. I'm certainly in no rush to listen

To be fair though, the R&B artists from 20 years ago are barely relevant today. So her demise was inevitable.

Some are and some aren't, but, i don't think her album sales are a sign of irrelevancy either. She's made her mark and the word "Irrelevant" needs to start being used for the girls that have never done shit and don't contribute in any way to the industry. Not Black Artists like Alicia Keys or most of our faves. I disagree but i don't wanna grasp at straws or go back n forth on the meaning of that particular word and it's definition either. You're right about sales decline being inevitable as it's down for pretty much everyone. Without streams, everybody would be sittin LOW outside of Drake, Adele and maybe 5-7 more Artists.
There's no parity in the industry and with that being the case, there's no way we can say the other thousands of Artists are irrelevant. Couldn't be IMO
Quote from: Kaeli. on December 16, 2021, 02:47:05 AM

True. He's a rare case like Sade where they can get away with certain things that most won't, mostly based on mystique at this point if you ask me. Maxwell is a phenomenal Artist overall but lately the music been hittin like that IMO

One of the worst songs ever recorded zz I hate it so much
Not a fan of GOF either
I did see a performance vid on yt on the timeline but never really checked. I don't know I guess it's her voice and production that changed a lot since the first two. I haven't checked this new album yet
I don't think she cares tbh. This whole project was rushed and lackluster. That album got some good songs on it though and she's still beautiful. I don't get where her music is going tho....

Her music is horrible now. Boring with dull melodies that just aren't as catchy as her older stuff and she can't hide behind that piano anymore. It's tired and she can only dupe people for so long with that same boring act. Not Brandy selling more the first week with B7 without a huge label and budget pushing her. The promo for "Keys" was unlike anything I've ever seen. Ascreecha used to be an A-Lister. Lmao
