It’s actually not exhausting thinking the way I do. As I’ve said before in MANY posts, idgaf about charts. I take what she gives me at HER word. Just yesterday she posts “This album is my heart, my NAME!”Tomagaxtchi wrote: ↑Sat Nov 19, 2022 12:55 pmIt’s amazing how some fans think they know xtinas personal life. She a is a superstar, she makes money when she sleeps, she has her family, kids to raise, she paid her dues so you really think she’s concerned about what some of you are thinking about how she “rolls out” her projects? She puts music out when SHE wants to. She performs where SHE wants to. It’s HER career. Regardless of how she does these projects she is still winning Grammys 22 years after winning best new artist. She doesn’t care about charts and numbers, her “roll out” pays off. Over the last 20 years I think we have all learned what her pattern is when it comes to her projects, we will never be 100% with all her decisions but damn some of you are unbelievable. If she releases an album with 1-2 singles you’re mad, if she releases a Grammy winning album with multiple singles and videos, you’re mad about it not charting, not understanding the video storyline…There is no winning with y’all. It must be mentally exhausting to think like you do.Cruz2318 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 19, 2022 12:10 pmWith all due respect, this is the most insane comment ive ever read. Christina herself let her efforts go unnoticed. A whack ass rollout, a mindnumbing incoherent storyline of the first three music videos that SHE couldn’t even explain herself at that Billboard interview, disappearing for a couple months in the middle of an era. A random ass UK tour in the middle of a Spanish era, performing the same three Spanish songs…AS wrote: ↑Sat Nov 19, 2022 9:15 am
I definitely agree with you on the fact that the Latin fans ain't shit (for years they talked a big game, swearing she would do Shakira's numbers and lit up the charts when in reality they failed to show real support, letting Christina's efforts go unnoticed)... BUT imo the other big reason the album didn't chart is the ill-fated strategy adopted by the label (the EPs, streaming-only release, zero promo outside the US, etc.). With the same approach, even an English album wouldn't have charted.
Come on girl.
Girl, it’s your heart when you’ve barely acknowledged it? She’s done this for years now, which is talk this big game, act like she’s completely invested and then leaves her fans in the dark about everything.
At this point I’m a fan of this woman for her voice and voice alone, because it’s still one of the best the industry and world has ever heard, but words don’t match her actions… if anything is exhausting, THATS what is. And fans like you make me laugh because you justify this behavior by saying “you think she cares about how she rolls things out?”
UH YES she should!!!!!!! Lmfao. Because when you don’t engage, when your projects are confusing because you don’t even know wtf is going on, that’s gonna reflect on your fans and how they purchase or don’t purchase your music. Which is my 3/4 of the masses have no idea this project even exists.
