This is really just Taylor Swift's world, and we're just living in it.
Because honestly, 2023, when it comes to music, has just been completely dominated by Taylor Swift in a way that reminds me to relate it to sports.
Because, you know, that's my go-to.
LeBron in 2012, 2013.
It's just back-to-back-to-back trophies, whether it's regular season trophy.
whether it's well regular season MVP whether it's postseason MVP whether it's the NBA finals
championship it's everything and more for Taylor swift and her fan base rabbit fan base
that calls themselves the swifties of course now why am I saying that as a coverer of hip hop
is because hip hop has had one of the worst years ever so in turn I have to
to look at the field to kind of understand why hip hop is performing so poorly when it comes to
the overall landscape of 2023.
And look no further than this lady right here.
Let me tell you something.
Taylor Swift has a case, literally a case, to call herself the queen of pop.
Hear me out.
Hear me out.
the numbers that Taylor Swift has put up is astronomical.
Like out of this world type beat, right?
And it's to the point where she literally leads all of their other artists and nominations for the 2020 Billboard Music Awards.
So let me tell you this.
She has the potential to break records, right?
Billboard Music Awards is not subjective.
It's basically statistically speaking.
So whether you sell the most means you're going to win.
Well, let me put it more lamest terms.
Winners are determined by performance metrics on the year-end billboard charts.
So it's no, oh, who you think is going to win?
Oh, I can't.
Oh, hopefully he upsets this person or hopefully she upsets so and so.
all that is out the window.
Taylor Swift is running the charts.
Like, she's literally going to break records.
Because I remember there was one year where Drake ran it up.
I don't know if it was with views or Scorpion.
But then he went to the Billboard Music Award show,
and he took a picture of what I think was like 10 to 12 trophies
because it's statistically speaking.
It's not subjective.
It's not like, oh, he got five trophies.
So let's give the next one to this other artist because he has zero.
There's none of that.
is if you win on the charts,
you went out in the Billboard Awards show.
So Taylor Swift,
similar to the MTV Awards,
she's going to show up.
She's going to collect all of her trophies.
And she's probably going to take a picture
just being surrounded by them.
Remember I said that.
So the Billboard Music Awards,
of course, is this year, right?
And it has a lot of new categories,
including K-pop and Afrobees
that have been added to the Billboard Music
awards but the reason why i want to speak on this
is because of this topic right here
that have on the screen if you don't see it analytic dreams video on spotify to see the
video element along with the audio but with that out the way
taylor swift is continuing the heirs tour
so she is
i'm trying to find it
fans are encouraged to dress up and make friendship braces i don't know where that
came from but it's just a side tangent i'm sorry and now you know
basically she has extended her eras tour with new dates in canada latin america asia australia
don't australia isn't that the place with the humongous bugs like the drastic park for bugs
isn't that what australia's maybe i'm tripping but last time i heard you go to australia you may
get eaten by a man spire that ain't going to lie to you and europe so that is where her
her tour is extending to once again is Canada Latin America Asia Australia and Europe and then she
also has a movie coming out I swear this is not no press release I'm just read it off as
as I have it Taylor Swift also has a movie coming out no it's already out on October 12th
so yeah it's been out the Erez tour and has been shown 39 AMC theater location
and the film runtime is about two hours and 48 minutes the concert is expected to run four weeks in theaters so by the time this comes out it should still be in theaters let me see uh one two three
yeah i ain't gonna lie this week or next week maybe the last of it so i would see it soon two hours and 48 minutes of run time
it's expected to run for four weeks
that's why I said that
and the album errors in order
the movie was filmed during
Swift's first three shows
at So Fah Stadium in Los Angeles
and that's where the friendship
bracelets come in
and then moviegoers are allowed to dance
and sing along during the film
so it was like some high school musical type beat
hopefully nobody woke up on the wrong side of the bed
because man that would be annoying
so anyways she has
multiple oh that's the nominations
part the billboard music awards
would not be on TV
winners would be announced
on social media and live stream
I wish I had a boo sound effect
do I have a boo sound effect let me see
because that is what type of
it's like if the Grammys
well yeah it's like if the Grammys
had it only on live stream
and announced the winners via social
media like what type of
what type of broke you behavior
years that talk about uh budget cuts that is insane honestly that is pretty crazy i'm trying to pull
up my boo sound effect it's not working right now give me a second i think i had a boo i don't think i had one
anyways i'm here to boo them myself so for the billboard music awards all i got to tell y'all
as far as the tv and winners and stuff like that being announced on social media and live stream
and for the war show not to be on TV at all.
Boo.
Boo!
That sucks.
Boo!
All right, that's it.
That's all I got.
That's all I got.
I ain't going to lie to you.
That was my best impression of how to crowd be booing people.
But, yeah, Billboard Music Awards, that actually is pretty disappointing because I was
looking forward to that picture with Taylor Swift just surrounded by trophies.
But I'm pretty sure they did that simply because Taylor Swift dominated the entire year.
without the entire year but because Morgan Wallet had like the first three months two to three
months and then Taylor Swift dropping it was it was all pandemonium from there so uh what else
there's something else I was wanting to get into the eras tour the movie and then I want to get into
some stats so yeah let's look up Taylor Swift stats because this is ridiculous right the reason why
I'm calling her the queen of pop is not just to be disrespectful because I swear Michael Jackson fans
always
act like
I'm trying to discredit
MJ when in all actuality
you know there's other people
that you know
he may have to pass the baton to
and I think Taylor Swift is
on the rise to
receive that baton
pause if needed
I don't know
let me see
let me see
okay so Taylor Swift's first week
sales overtime so 1.6
1.5 I want you all
look at this right quick right
I want you all
I'll let me know
any other artists
that's ever crossed
a million first week sales
once right
besides a Michael Jackson
like you literally have
that's why I call her
the queen of pop
simply because of this stuff
right here
so basically
her first week sales
of all of her albums
most of them
has debuted
like the first week
that it was out
debuted with
above a million
purchase
or sales album sales not just streams album sales because if you don't know that amount of streams
for one album that's like a thousand or two thousand it's a lot right so this is album sales
there's not streams a million plus on most of her albums first week that is insane honestly
so that's why i call her the queen of pop because nobody else is doing that drake's not doing that
bad bunnies not doing that um i think adele did that once if i'm not mistaken
mistaken. Who else is close? That's basically it. Miancé definitely not. So I'm not trying to
discredit other artists. I'm just letting you know the reason why I'm calling Taylor Swift, the
queen of pop, is not to discredit Michael Jackson, is actually to honor him because that's how
I had a pack Michael Jackson was numbers-wise when it comes to his peers. So Taylor Swift,
when it comes to her peers, it's just a wide gap. That's why I said, LeBron, 2013, well,
2012, 2013, because Taylor Swift
and the next best
musician, which, you know,
I'm biased, but I would say Drake,
is a humongous gap.
Like, you don't see my hands right now,
but I'm doing a very large,
you know, to showcase the motion.
So obviously you can't see through the screen.
So anyways,
there's something else I was going to look up.
So I took, yeah, let me take that out the screen.
So a bunch of,
So Taylor Swift has sold 4.5 million pure copies this year alone.
By far, the top selling act by total album sales.
Six more times than number two.
Six more times than number two.
So I'm just throwing these stats at you to let you know why I'm covering Taylor so frequently.
Because basically it's only it's very, I won't say ignorant, but some,
dismissive to act like Taylor Swift is not existing
while I cover music.
Even though I cover hip hop mainly, specifically.
Taylor Swift and what she's doing
for the music industry as far as just carrying it
on her back, because let's be honest, hip hop hasn't been performing
all too well when it comes to the charts.
We've been getting outperformed by country artists, pop artists,
K-pop musicians, no disrespect to them,
just pointed out how hip-hop is like to go back to sports.
Hip-hop is like Team USA and basketball.
Like the world is catching up.
I know you're like, well, Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen is American.
Just stick with my comparison, right?
Hip-hop is Team USA, right?
For the past three to four years, we've been by far,
number one like not even close like if you talk about the top genres that people are listening to
is hip hop by far to the point where we've had collabs with the morgan wall in the little dirt
uh taylor swift and kentrick lamar uh taylor swift and ice spice do you not know that taylor swift
and ice spice has a song together y'all think that's just because taylor swift likes ice spice
i mean honestly reports came out that it's because of her ex-boyfriend being racist towards or something
like that. I'm not, you know, I'm not putting no
dispersions on anybody. I'm just letting you know
what us purges. I think it's us purges.
Anyway, I'm not putting now
anybody. I'm just letting you know what the reports
are saying. So she has a song
with Ice Spice, right?
And nowadays,
we have people like Jay Cole,
Germain,
doing features for
Hope from BTS. Obviously, no disrespect.
I'm just letting you know that
hip hop has become
the collaborator, the collaborator,
collaborator, can I talk? I don't know.
Collaborator, instead of the collaborator,
that makes sense. Anyways,
instead of being the one that people are coming to
for collaboration, they're going to them for collaborating.
Simply because they're the ones dominating now
and not, I'm not going to say dominating.
They're the ones coming on top now more than they used to
in the past three to four years.
I ain't that pussy.
Yeah.
So once again, Taylor Swift is a huge proponent to why pop is going or pop is going to be number one as far as the most genre listened to.
But let's just keep in all actuality.
Hip hop is still on top.
It's just they're a big dog, which Taylor Swift's the biggest, is dropping multiple albums in one year on some NBA young boy type beat.
and putting at one point it's like if mb young boy drop and consistently sold what he used to sell
with a i young boy right that's what taylor swift is doing dropping multiple times um a year well really
this is the only year she's done that but basically telling over a million first week every single time
so with that i want to get into other things okay so taylor swift's 1989 taylor's version
which is the latest album debuted at number one of course with 1.6 million million
Union's first week, which is the biggest album sale week of the decade.
All right.
Dictionary time.
Because even me, you know, sometimes I get confused.
Like, what does a decade really mean, honestly?
Like Drake said, we're going to look around a decade from now.
I still ain't, I still ain't seen big shot.
Now, just a point.
Let me chill.
All right.
Taylor Swift had the biggest album sell as far as first week of the decade, right?
a decade by definition is a period of 10 years beginning with the end year of zero or by another
reckoning one right that's in parentheses so basically all you need know is a period of 10 years that's all
you need know with that being said Taylor Swift got it man she got it I mean obviously if those
stats don't ring a bell that I don't know what will because I really do feel like
Taylor Swift is one of those type of musicians where her presence will be missed if she ever
stopped making music. It's like one of those things where if I was to act like, oh, hip hop don't
need Drake. Drake can retire tomorrow like a lot of these other people are saying not understanding
that Drake's the only reason really hip hop is even competing because if it wasn't for Drake
where we have Travis Scott and you know he's on tour so he's not really going to promote because
he just wanted to go back on tour to make money and, you know,
let me chill with Travis Scott and touring,
but you know how I feel about Travis Scott and his tours.
So with that being said,
don't really have too much pioneer presence when it comes to hip-hop.
I mean, the biggest thing we've received as far as a big voice
coming out to talk about the landscape of hip-hop is Jermaine with Littal Yadi.
And if that doesn't tell you all you need to know,
then it's not much I can do for you, man.
So that's basically why I want to get into just,
give Taylor Swift the most ultimate praise that I could give her because she is putting up
numbers that we've never seen.
Well, not never, but we haven't seen in a long, long, long, long, long, long time.
And last theory, before I wrap this up, I promise.
Taylor Swift, being with Travis Kelsey, I do not think that's a PR stunt.
I do believe that she is in a business strategic relationship.
I know some of y'all may say that's a PR stunt, but I honestly do believe that she will be with him for quite some time simply for the fact I think by next year or the year after next year, she wants to host the Super Bowl.
She wants to get to the point where Travis Kelsey is in the Super Bowl and she's performing.
Now, obviously, those two things, one's a little bit, well, it's not easy, but Taylor Swift made it look easy.
So her getting to the Super Bowl to perform is a little bit easier than Travis Kelsey getting to the Super Bowl.
but with him being on Kansas City Chiefs, you never know.
And I would not be surprised if they pull up,
oh, Usher sick, or Usher got injured, or Usher has family matters,
and his replacement is Taylor Swift.
I would not be surprised if NFL tried to pull that and act like we were stupid.
So I'm going to call it out just so they don't do it.
Because I think if enough people understand the lengths that NFL will go to
to make Taylor Swift happy,
they would probably look at Usher
headlining the Super Bowl a little differently
because they could easily
try to pressure Jay-Z and Rock Nation
because if you don't know,
Jay-Z is over the entertainment for NFL.
They can easily pressure Jay-Z
to say, hey, Usher is not performing
Taylor Swift is. I don't care if you have to come up
with an excuse, but this is what we're making happen.
So that's my last, that was a little reach,
but that's my last theory on what could happen
Taylor Swift's and her impact of 2023.
So click my link tree in my bio.
Let me know one of my social media is.
What do you think about Taylor Swift and her run at 2023?
And do you think it's the greatest run by a musician of all time?
