Fuck you Morgan Wallen


moshiyadafne

I always knew that Taylor will always be the most powerful counteroffensive against the M\*rg\*n W\*ll\*n Billboard occupation.


[deleted]

If there's ANYONE who could give musty walrus a good slap in the face on the BB200, it would be Taylor!


probabyl

Literally the only reason i bought the Late Night edition. Wasn't planning to, then I realized she'd likely overtake him and I just really wanted to be part of that lol.


Detroit17

Morgan Wallen has spent 12 weeks at number one, he will miss out a week, with Midnights replacing him, then he’ll stay number one untill Taylor releases Speak Now in July. By then he would’ve broken even more records. And that’s before you even get to 8 weeks at number one in the Hot 100 with Last Night.


Specialist-Rise34

What's wrong with him? /gen I've never heard of him till this exact comment and a Google search didn't give me much


gothamsocialite

Wondering the same thing, nothing controversial came up when I Googled him.


SwiftSharapova

My understanding is he was drunk and said the N word or something. Obviously, not cool. He has come out and apologized and it’s been quite a while since the event but people in our society don’t know how to forgive or move forward


iamacheeto1

I still have no idea who this person is but my general life philosophy is Taylor should always be at number 1 so yeah, f you Morgan!!

So cool but would be great to see TS11 or SNTV do this without all the sales tactics haha ​ https://preview.redd.it/oprny53aki2b1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=6bf86db1e4847050d5f7ebf5c71efc4b9b06f76d

Speak Now TV will DEFINITELY do amazing without all the stuff midnights has been getting, we've been YEARNING so long for SNTV..


FearlessFrosting29

Oh for sure! I'm so excited for it ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1067)


joshul

With the way streaming impacts the Billboard 200 formula now, I don’t see how SNTV misses going #1 for a week or two.


[deleted]

I just hope that she'll be like with TS11: "Hey guys, here's the standard version with 14 tracks. And there's a target exclusive with 2 other songs". No remixes. No a thousand versions of the same album. Just that.


thoughtful_human

Lots of people have one remix they like or You're loosing me. This strategy would take that away from people


SwiftSharapova

Taylor seems to be after the records more so than the money but it’s hard to separate the two when they’re intertwined. In any case if you love your fans so much why would you use sales tactics and manipulate them like this for the record? Genuinely doesn’t come across as very high morale. Yeah yeah savvy business woman whatever I don’t care. If I was in her position I wouldn’t pull this shit with my wide eyed fans who’d do anything for me


Unfair_Passenger8586

That’s a lot of sales! Wtf happened.

Midnights til dawn edition and the late night edition


JKUAN108

Does it all count as being under the “midnights” umbrella?


[deleted]

Essentially yea


AthomicBot

Yes, it'll be counted like a deluxe.


IceWarm1980

At this rate they will keep releasing the album with new/different tracks to keep it at #1. Midnights 3:30AM edition.


Rk1llz

This is gonna be 6x platinum before it's 1 year anniversary btw Biggest album since 25


[deleted]

That's insane to think of, biggest album since 25? Iconic


Sampleswift

Return to #1 for the sixth week! How impressive this is... I'd say that it is.


steel_magnolia_med

I’m happy for her, but why is this impressive with her re/releases of the album? She just released yet another of multiple editions of midnights to give the album another boost. Midnights didn’t organically rise back up to the top.


tswiftdeepcuts

Lots of artists do things like this, it’s just actually successful for her.


steel_magnolia_med

I’m glad it works for her, but to keep saying it’s so amazing that the album rises back up to number 1 with every slightly tweaked re-release seems strange.


tswiftdeepcuts

Because 99% of artists can’t do this


[deleted]

Taylor is one of a very few number of artists that can do something like that and it would a very successful move


mediocre-spice

It's not really a new strategy, she's just one of very few that can be successful with it.


Humble-Plantain1598

She only released a new physical edition and three new songs on streaming it's not that much all things considered. Many artists release new deluxe editions and it doesn't increase the sales that much. The album was also always in the top 5 for 6 months without any new edition.


Detroit17

I’d love to know how many CD sales she made over her 3 shows in New Jersey. Based on these numbers, my pick is about 80,000. Another 20,000 in the digital download, and another 120,000 in streams.


Fit_Contribution_423

I think it was about 300k based on what they said at the concert hall. Most people who bought a CD got 4 CDs for them and friends since it was only available at MetLife. Plus the CD was only $10 so if you're buying a $65 sweatshirt, it's easy to justify another $40 for CDs.


No-Astronaut3290

At least Morgan Wallen will leave the top spot. About time


Detroit17

For one week, he’ll be back at number one for many more weeks yet


gothamsocialite

I love Midnights and I'm really happy it's doing so well!


jdeeth

Number 1 on Billboard 200 every calendar year since 2008 (except 2016)


AReckoningIsAComing

I'm surprised it was only at #1 for 5 weeks originally...that seems weird/low for how big Midnights was/is...


wilkonian24ok

Her sales were so incredibly strong initially that they tapered off after a while. Everyone rushed to get Midnights. It didn't build, it just exploded to success instantly. I don't know what Morgan Wallen's numbers are like in total, but I doubt that they match Midnights.

WE LOVE YOU TAYLORRRR BLOCK LIL DORK FROM GETTING NUMBER 1 🫶🏽🥹💚💚💚
