I don't see Drake shows like this. No way he would sell out like she is.

Drake is the #1 streamed artist in Spotify history. I've argue enough about this pointless shite anyway. I concede.

She's a great performer who writes her own songs and plays an instrument and puts on a great show. She is up there with Elvis and Beatles as cultural phenomenons go. Total respect. She paid her truck drivers a $100,000 bonus. That is life-changing money.

Plus is really pretty and sexy and I want to be her older boyfriend.

From fricking March
quote:

Most monthly listeners on Spotify – 111.4 million (as of 20 March 2023)
First artist to reach 100 million monthly listeners on Spotify


From that same article:

quote:

He is also comfortably ahead of Shakira (81.6 million), Ariana Grande (80.6 million), Taylor Swift (80.2 million), Rihanna (78.5 million), and his closest male challenger, Ed Sheeran (77.5 million).


Taylor has added almost 20 million to that number just in the last coupe months, as she's nearing 100 mil herself. The Weeknd has only added 1 million in that same span of time. She's well ahead of the Weeknd in current charting, and it's not particularly close.

IF you want to sit here with a straight face and tell me the Weeknd could sell out a tour like Taylor has, you're just lying to yourself.

Drake and The Weeknd together couldn’t sell out an nfl stadium more than once or twice. Drake isn’t even performing in the dome in New Orleans. She’s on a completely different level.

She doesn't play the kind of music I like, but you have to respect this right here.

That's cool. I don't listen to Taylor on Spotify. We own all her records and live stream all the concerts. So you can't just go off of Spotify numbers.

I feel like the only person in the world that scored tickets the regular way. I got online and purchased them during the presale. It took a few hours but I finally got in and purchased four nosebleeds at $99ea.
The next day it was all over the news that us Swifties overwhelmed ticketmaster's system and everyone got shut out.

Just got lucky I guess.

We got them through Capital One and had two extra. We could have sold them for a ton, but sold at face value to friends of a friend.

Nowadays it pays for an attractive woman to get the attention of the world for 5 seconds by almost any means. Do that and the IG, TT, and OF accounts get flooded with new followers.

In pop star years, that’s on the cusp of “over the hill and irrelevant.” But Taylor has an almost Elvis-like appeal and has proven she can morph like Madonna minus the weirdness.

probably helps that she's aged pretty well, at least in my opinion.
