Still pressed that Greedy, Touch It, Bad Decisions, and Sometimes never got to be singles Honestly though I think the whole album minus IDC, Knew Better/Forever Boy, abd Moonlight had single potential

Ariana will probably have one of the most hyped lead singles in 2018. I truly wish she can come up with a bop and get her 1st #1. She got all the attention on her this time around.

What I PERSONALLY want this era . 1 to 2 #1 singles, 500K+ sold they can fudge the numbers and count the shipments but i need sold. Market it as 3 times platinum!!!! by including sold + shipments or better yet say 8 times platinum by including digital single sales into the mix! I want 3 urban bangers, 2 mid tempo r&b cuts, and atleast on ratchet stripper anthem. The cute girl shit is old we know you aint sweet. the rest of the album can be the usual pop filler for yall. I want her to wear a hat sometimes because ponytail and hats are HAWT! I need her to go on Wendy Williams, Good Morning, Ellen and couple of the funny night people. I want her to also get a new boyfriend cause the one she has now looks dirty. this album is huuuuge, if she cant meet my demands

I never liked the dark roots, platinum dip-dye look. She can pull anything off, but eh. I really liked her last look with the TERF bangs. Still lowkey pissed that her previous album wasn't a bigger deal. It's seriously good. It did pretty well, actually. Took a minute for the singles to get off the ground, but it did decently in streaming. Her raw sales are and will continue to be ass for the foreseeable future because she's the closest thing to a superstar this side of a generation who has no concept of music ownership, if that's what you mean. In general I would like to see the label really push AG4. She's in that weird in-between Rihanna found herself in before the Chris Brown incident that really threw her into the spotlight. Not that I wish anything like that on to Ariana, obviously, but she needs an angle for the public to care about her and not just her hits. Her raw sales are nothing to sniff at. They aren’t AMAZING. But she’s proven to be consistent and can move albums when a lot of her contemporaries can’t.

I'm not mad at her sales. None of the newer acts are going to sell much anyways.
I just think the era could have been handled a lot better. Be Alright should have been a single over Everyday (and Into You missing the top 10 is still a crime).

It wasn’t radio really. Ariana and Scooter had seperated briefly during that time, for whatever reason, and she started to suffer for it. Promotion for the single was all over the place too. The burden of responsibility lies on her for not handling the single as effectively as it could have been (see ‘Side to Side’ taking off almost immediately after she plopped right back down on Scooter’s roster). Still, the single had a pretty decent impact for how it performed on radio, and honestly that’s arguably the least relevant format these days.
I’m more surprised ‘Everyday’ bombed. That seemed to be exactly the sound from her that the public was resonating with.

I think that godawful video may have been what did it in. She had an opportunity to make a video as iconic as "Side To Side" and instead we got a Jackass-reject.

Everyday is the second best video of the era. As iconic the song Into You is, the video was very boring.

People use the word "iconic" so loosely. I've seen that word thrown around several times and I can't help but to chuckle.

The best thing about Ariana getting some Christmas love is that she's relevant all year round - unlike certain others!

It's hard for me to be interested. I'll be honest here. She's a good singer. Her range is incredible and she had to have some good vocal training. But besides that... nothing else interests me with her as an artist. I'm curious to see what direction she'll go. But I doubt it'll mean much to me. Not expecting much.

I'm thinking they're gonna go with a summer release but I wouldn't hate a single in a few weeks. I need some new music!
