That shows that their big labels did their jobs. 50 Cent and Bieber sold way more albums than Bjork and KB; does that mean they're better? Popularity =/= quality.

>Grimes simply doesn't have the star power to compete with them,
She has way more star power than both combined. She doesn't have the proper marketing budget to "buy" popularity.

>if she was unable to do it her last few albums I highly doubt she'll start now.
When Bjork released her second official solo album Post, Grimes already did 4 solo albums + 1 EP. She's on the right track.

What is interesting about this, is
1) the information was cultivated in 2012, with nothing since then. This was years before Art Angels was even released. This is not current data, over 5 years old by now
2) Just several months before the information was gathered, as you can see she only had a 50% approval rating. Classic example of cherrypicking data for a confirmation bias

>>73703841
I'm sorry, but did Grimes already lose? Oh, that's right. The decade isn't even over yet. In fact, it's just getting started. Does not being the most listened artist in spotify counts as a loss? Is that what you're saying? Because if you're saying that I can assure you that you're wrong. Why would you make this post when the decade is still going on? Grimes is still in the industry right now and she has been the best female artist for how many years now? She's going against some of the worst artists in the industry who just happen to have hype because they're feeding off the bad taste of the masses. But you know what? They still fucking suck. Grimes is one of the best fucking artists, she has over 10 confirmed skills in different areas related to music. Maybe you should shut the fuck up before you make retarded posts like this. You know why? Because you're going to be embarrassed when Grimes wins and someone bumps this topic. Oh look at that, Grimes just said she could release a new album soon, just like people were worried about. Are you a fucking drunk? Are you retarded? Are you autistic? You are a fucking idiot and you should never make a comment on this board again and I'm fucking serious. I almost have a feeling you're the only guy making all these anti-Grimes posts because you're a faggot hater who doesn't like Grimes because she's good. Fuck you, be good at something in YOUR life and then maybe try to troll fucking genius artists on the board, like I give a fuck. It's so easy to spot out your posts now, you're a retard. Always doing stupid shit like this. Why don't you try to be a good poster? Just for once? For once in your fucking life try not to make a comment like this. That's just you, you're always right at getting it wrong. Fuck you. You are nothing.

There's a reason: on /mu/ there's always "fresh meat". Many newcomers listen to her amazing music to see what's the deal with her popularity here. You have no idea how many fans she earned after she released Art Angels.

Those who already made up their mind (like you) are mostly a lost cause. Those will never give her a fair chance anyway.

>>73705288
Come on, already. Do you really expect that? Check those kind of charts for ANY artist you want. You're going to see something similar. Activity: more interest; less activity: less interest.
>>
>>73705294
I like Halfaxa though, I just dislike Art Angels and Visions (really dislike). Art Angels was almost 2 years ago, and you grimesfags have ruined any positive attention she used to have
>>
>>73705289
You're stupid. That spike of activity happens every time an artist (ANY ARTIST) releases something, then it slowly fades away. Becasue people have better stuff to do than to search nonstop for news when the artist is between albums.

When she will release her next album, the spike will be bigger than when she released Art Angels. The cycle will repeat.
>>
I'm actually convinced 95% of the post in this thread are being posted by some IRC chat trying to troll us. It's fucking impossible that there are so many grimesfags actively posting in this board. It's insane.
You waltz in, completely disregard the established board culture, do whatever the fuck you want, call whomever you disagree with "plebs," and you say you are not being selfish? Just kill yourself. The human race can do without people like you.

Do you really expect your delusional and incoherent ramblings to be read? Everyone plonked you long ago. Do you fantasize that your tantrums and conniption fits could possibly be worth the $0.000000001 worth of electricity used to send them?

And the worst thing is that they project superior mentality every time you complain about them. You can't crack them. They're smarmy, sarcastic by telling half-lies, half-clues and insulting you in the most idiotic, vague ways possible.

3 years ago she toured, dumbass. Now she doesn't tour at all. If she kept touring the average would be above that 25 line. After she will release her next album, the average will grow up really fast. Those who searched about her are still there, they don't disappear. Just in "hibernation".

That chart is FLEXIBLE.
>>
>>73705463
>you grimesfags have ruined any positive attention she used to have
No. Let's ignore your retarded term "grimesfags" for a moment. We made her way more respected. WAY MORE. Did you see her older threads from 2012? Almost all users made fun of her, shitpost about her and basically didn't give a fuck about her music. Case in point https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/mu/thread/25409916/ Compared to that bullshit, her new threads are much better.

Even if you insult her and her fans, you know (secretly) they're badasses.
>>
>>73705585
>way more respected
she gets just as much hate in her own threads as she used to, and now she gets even more hate outside of her threads.

this is cancer.
>>
>>73705413
>Meanwhile actual stats show her popularity stagnating
That's NOT her popularity. Just how many people searched for Grimes news/articles/etc. Even if less people are searching about her that doesn't mean those people don't know or don't listen to her music.

As a matter of fact watch out when she will drop her next masterpiece. You will see a huge spike out of nowhere.

My grandfather smoked his whole life.

I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, "If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately."

Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately.

Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me.

My mother said to me, "Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your grandfather put us through." I agreed.

At 28, I have never touched a cigarette.

I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your post gave me cancer anyway.

Way less. Count the positive posts vs negative posts from each thread. Be surprised.

Stay chill; she always got hate from this board. /mu/ can't handle her.
>o i am laffin
Laughing and not being normal. Now seriously, you don't fool anyone.

>>73705483

If you look at Grimes threads on average there's around only around 20 posters, and most are haters, it's the same few people arguing with each other in these threads, you can just tell by their posts, the same arguments all the time. People act like Grimes is popular here but it's really only a handful of people.

You'd think they'd be sick of writing the same thing over and over again, this goes for haters and her fans. Just a waste of time in the end because nothing changes.
>>
>>73705899
>way less
less, but not way less. plus, I would say that the less grimes haters is more responsible to people not even bothering then you retards actually making enough of an effort to get them to leave. If you think that you managed to change something, then you're wrong, considering that the quality of the positive posts between the threads are about the same.

Just the search interest and nothing more. Check this: https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&range=latest-20&pages=David_Bowie

That's David Bowie's Wikipedia page. When he died (a super notable event) his Wikipedia views skyrocketed. But now? They're much smaller. Does that mean Bowie's popularity faded away? Or that there's less search interest because there are no notable Bowie events right now?

Similar thing for Grimes' search interest.

Whatever. Some of these haters are doing it for fun anyway. They don't really care about her, they just want drama.

>If you think that you managed to change something, then you're wrong, considering that the quality of the positive posts between the threads are about the same.
About the same? Are you kidding me? The positive posts now (2017) far surpass the positive posts then (2012). Overall, the balance is in her favor.
>>
>>73706049

I expect a little decency, cretin. Music taste is subjective. There's nothing wrong to like Beyonce (I don't like her but I don't insult those who like her). If you dislike something it doesn't mean it's objectively bad.
>>
>>73703079
Literally who?
>>
>>73707091
>I expect a little decency
Then learn more about music before you discuss it, instead of just parroting top 40 bullshit and entry level music like you're an expert. That's what elitism is against. The anon that you were replying to was not only focusing on the point that he thinks that beyonce is bad, he was focusing on the point that she's entry-level and ruins discussion
>>
>>73707091
>nothing wrong with liking beyonce
i agree but that wasnt my point
>objectively bad
again no one is saying this, but you cant bring your 3rd grade fingerpainting to an art gallery and expect to be respected now can you

Beyonce is anything but 3rd grade fingerpainting. Why do you hate black women?
>>
>>73706149

I said average, look at the post counts, I'm not talking about just generals, this one and the general up are rarities because there's 40+

It is just the same few fans arguing though, unless there are others just copying and pasting the same things.

>>73706171

I don't. I actually want to discuss music which is hard these days. Especially for someone who's both a big Grimes and a Bjork fan like me. Most threads usually turn into this one, sometimes there's threads where you get good discussion. It's probably only going to get worse when they announce their new albums. Or maybe it'll get better and we can actually discuss the music.
>>
>>73707198

I would have to say the Grateful Dead but thats not to say I think theyre the best band I listen to, my tastes skew towards jazz/folk music but really the only thing I can never get into is metal

Grimes is dollar store bjork from the now, Bjork is still an good and active artist, she's had her ups and downs but still. You should have started this thread with an inverted title because gosh darn Bjork is a better songwriter than grimes
>>
>>73710049
Grimes is the improved Bjork. This is not negotiable.
>>
>>73710075
Grimes a generic washed out pop artist with a very low skill level for the amount that she has broke into indie and mainstream popularity. It's an anomaly. Bjork is just fucking fantastic singer with good production and actually deserves recognition beyond her fanbase for her legitimate talent.
