stands to reason that artists with more fans woud have more sales, even if sales only make up <10% of an artists income.

Buying physical media in South Korea is a "thing", a way to show your support and get exclusive content like photo cards and shit. Crazy fans will buy several copies of a new album.

seriously though this is peak cringe how the fuck did boomers listen this and not want to vacate their brain matter from their skull?

>zoomers have no joy its all dark depressing shit
I don't think that's necessarily true, I see a lot of zoomers getting into the whole "New Sincerity" thing, the most popular songs have always been slightly edgy. That seems to be the formula for pop chart success no matter the decade, taking a goofy ass pop song and sprinkling in just enough angst to give it fake depth = broad appeal. I don't think any generation is going to have as bad a victim complex as millennials.
>>
>>129472866
true, theyll hype up another whiny whispery egirl singing about her ex boyfriend
>>
>>129472888
If you sang and danced to "party rocking in the house tonight" unironically you are spiritualy a boomer. At least real boomer music wasn't this cringe.

>the most popular songs have always been slightly edgy.
not true at all. the 90s were full of non-edgy hits like mmm bop and if you steal my sunshine, which would never fly today because the new generation is too jaded and ironic
>>
>>129472960
1) only 16 year olds listen to that music
2) even if i was, you were 25 getting down to "everybody just party in the house tonight" which is infinitely more embarrassing.
