A decision has finally been reached: Sabrina Carpenter won the tight race, outselling Travis Scott by a mere 600 units to earn her very first no. 1 album on the Billboard 200 Chart. It was one of the closest calls

Nothing against Sabrina but boooooo 🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅booooo!!! 🍅🍅🍅🍅

I wanted mother’s M.O. to blow up in her face!!

i mean i would've preferred if the person going up against her to not have blood on their hands

NEGL I would have laughed if she didn't get the no. 1 after her little Nicki tweet.

But then I remember how terrible Travis Scott is and I'm like, nah it was for the best.

Wasn’t Travis also using Taylor’s MO tho? Is it even her MO at the end of the day or has she just done it for the most weeks in a row or whatever? Genuinely asking, no shade, I just can’t keep up with the antics despite reading all these posts

I wouldn't call it fraudulent, but it certainly had a huge promotion budget. I don't recall the last time I've seen an album pushed so hard. That being said, I'm in favor of Sabrina being a new main pop girl - her current music is very fun.

I do wish we, as a society, would chill a little with the chart obsession. I feel like it's gotten worse in recent years and it makes following pop music a little less enjoyable. A song is not bad or a flop just because it didn't get #1 (and a song is not good just because it got #1, either)

I do wish we, as a society, would chill a little with the chart obsession IAWTC except for when it comes to Katy Perry/s 143 album rollout which is deeply funny to me

[bluestoplights]

there are lots of albums with big promotion budgets that flop tbh

[willardwright]

true! Camila Cabello comes to mind
