I hope they do!
It was a huge global organic hit! The last song that did that was Bangtan with Dynamite. Maybe even more than Dynamite cos Army (huge fandom) made it hit with a splash right out the gate. Cupid really was a slow growth hitter and got love from everywhere before slowly climbing the charts.
Good for the girls!

I thought it was obvious our Lisa had bagged an Arnault cos he's been flying all over the world for her and following both her mum and her cat on Instagram lol. Might have had a hand in arranging fairly big opportunities such as meeting the French president also.
Dominic needs to quit getting in the way of her bag lmao.

if she was an escort at 15 before she entered YG as a trainee than that is incredibly sad and no wonder she turned out the way she did.
She was pimped out and used as a drug pusher and then left out to dry like this.
YG met his current wife when she was a 13 year old child and sabotaged her group so she "wouldn't become attracted to other men". This man is entire pedophile with hands in the Burning Sun trafficking scandals where it is once again minors who are abused so viciously. No telling what situations he has had the artists in his own company forced to be in.
He deserves to be burnt at the stake for real. POS.

I think it's pretty widely and well known that the Fashion industry uses drugs like we use sugar in tea lol, it's not surprising to anyone but young conservative kpop fans.
Same with that particular LA crowd. The Weeknd literally sings about drugging girls and passing them around his friends/Simi Haze/The Jenners/Jaden Smiths crowd and that whole church service thing is rampant with casual coke use. Maybe even heavier substances.
Doesn't mean she was doing it at all. She's a grown adult, her job is to be a musician, not a Jesus level moral figure lol.
And her own fandom started it, and Tisci deleted for a reason. That's the man that was running around with Kanye back in the day and partaking in lots of "fun". Fans just need to let it lie.
And saying her family are lawyers is hilarious. Do people not realise that coke nowadays is so common pretty much everywhere? I knew kids that did it in high school lol. It's not really taboo anymore apart from in very conservative countries.

Chartdata staff must be a fan cos they chose a picture where baby boy has nips right out haha!
What an AMAZING achievement! I'm so utterly happy for him!.
I hope he takes the opportunity to do lots and lots of promo for this and the company hype the shit out of this for him. I hope this inspires him to get rid of the mullet too please god.
F*ck all your opps!

The preorders include the amount of stock sent to the shops as well in anticipation if I'm right? It's not the amount of actual sales from the fans.
Because for a lot of idols, the preorder never matches the actual sales number, it just sounds fantastic for PR purposes and marketing to engage the fans and make them want to buy to be a part of the experience.

song is a classic summer UK pop hit that will get played to the absolute DEATH on Radio 1 lol!
And it's si much harder to game the UK charts, so the song is a hit! I really hope he does some promotion over there or even play a weekend festival, we have so many good ones in the summer and "like crazy" would be a really nice bop
-
I feel bad for him cos you just know people are going to pile on and blow it totally out of proportion. I hope he can remain confident in himself and not be overly critical.
99% of the industry both in kpop and globally, cannot sing live, and he has sounded great in so many live performances, even in the ones he gave for that very show! Doesn't matter if the encore was rough, it happens. Not the end of the world.
He's about to potentially go number 1 for his album and top 5 for "Like Crazy" on Billboard!. What a superstar! I thought his solo would do amazingly well but even I'm shocked at the amount of love it's gotten. He really did so well with the songs, I hate set me free but I love the vision for it and the performances. Like Crazy is just a bop. Peak Weeknd vibes.

it upsets me so much that Arabic is associated with violence and terror because it is truly one of the most melodic and beautiful sounding languages in the world! Every time i hear it i just want to learn how to speak it because it sounds so magical.
Fahad did amazingly well, FIFA is an arse for not upholding him in the version on YT. The man ate it tf up.
And our Jungkookie, wow. What an opportunity, you could tell he was nervous but he did so well and the song is very uplifting and joyous, I'm glad it is getting so much love despite the hypocrisy of recent controversies surrounding this event.
I can't believe how big JK is in Qatar lol, we don't even realise just how global they bloody are.

zaddy Agueroo!

SK is a hyper hyper competitive society, so I don't think it's unusual that as they grew in fame and popularity, people dropped off around them as they couldn't match up. I do hope they have some people in their life they can trust and lean on.

They really said fuck you to the government and their country trying to make dancing puppets out of them. Good for them!
2 years is absolutely nothing for the biggest bloody act in the world lol. We will be so occupied withal their solo activities and pre recorded content. Western artists take years between albums and still dominate. Bangtan will never stop selling out those massive stadiums.
And can you imagine the hype for when they come back as a group!?
I feel so relieved for them. They can do their service and go live their lives with knetz breathing hatefully down their necks.

Crush doing that blackface mask on that singing show should have sealed the deal of him being trash. These people have the Internet, they are not as ignorant of racial sensitivities as their fans would have you believe. They just 1000% do not care apart from getting the cool co-sign from POC.
I understand why idols wouldn't care. They are from a homogenous society who will never turn on them for being anti black or racist. But I just want to say that if your entire musical identity is based on ripping off swag and coolness and beats and music from black people..then it's utterly disgusting to be so blatantly ignorant.
-
I would love them to do older stuff like Butterfly,Love Maze, Tomorrow. But we will probably get all the group songs off of Proof ( they could have added another CD for their b-sides, they missed out all the best ones!). Hope we get mikrokosmos to finish it off. But it will probably be YTC. They should swap out For Youth for Forever. Much more iconic song imo.

I swear I saw something about them releasing a song in October for the world Cup? It can't be this?? Mic drop remixed into English would have been super good! This is trash.
-
Might be a very unpopular opinion but maybe they're just not as big in the US as the fandom thinks/projects?
Cos 50K getting them a no:1 album is shocking lol. That is an awful number. Especially for how they market themselves as the biggest girl group in the world. But sales are slumped across the board for the industry right now cos none of the heavyweights are releasing. So could work in their favour and they can top the charts. Anything to knock Harry styles off the top spot please god lol. I hope the song goes to number 1 too.

I bet even if the members wanted to serve, the government will encourage them into the alternative service where they will be beholden to the government. The amount of pressure and frustration over such an important part of their lives must be devastating for them. It makes the hiatus make a lot more sense honestly.
Officials have been hanging it over their heads for a few years now.
I'm still gobsmacked that the Busan officials thought it appropriate to go meet with jimin and jks parents in order to get them to agree to the expo concert. And the fact that they want them to put on concerts all over the world to promote the expo and busan. It'll probably count as their 544 hours but they can't get paid for the gruelling amount of work they will do while touring. Hybe will take in all those millions instead to spend it fucking up the other members solos and their shoddy PR game probably.
Let them all go for 18 months. The comeback would be astronomical and the flimsy Knetz and Kmedia would never have anything to hold over their heads if the boys start going against the status quo and living their life how they want to.
