The price maybe should have tipped them off.

This is stupid and the fans are right to be mad. I don't care that it costs 10 dollars, it's lazy af, she deserves to be called out.

I mean, she’s not forcing anyone to buy them or overpricing it. I’m assuming the album is out on regular CD and LP too. As far as I know, she’s also not touting herself as a visual artist. If anything, this seems completely on brand. Artistic visual ennui.

I’m not offended by this at all, although I get some of the criticisms. But imagine if Taylor Swift did this to increase sales. ONTD would want her head on a stick lol

Taylor would charge 5x more lbr

[colossusx]

have they started calling her billie flopish yet?

[hypermuseic9]

$10 is cheap, people really have it out for her

lol you can't even buy a cd for $10 let alone a signed one.

besides this is a cute idea.
