@lizardBoiFr @nbduckman sorry to yet again add to this thread i keep thinking of more
to be completely fair, james blake's new album had little to no promo either, and his new "good boy records" is using the exact same setup as palace creek

@lizardBoiFr @nbduckman it seems a lot of the promo for this album was just for the lulz, my head canon is the entire marketing budget went to the clank off

Alright, controversial take: This latest Joji album has been somewhat of a flop.
I'm not saying the album was bad (I like it a lot, as I've said many times). I'm also not saying didn't have a lot of hype for it (it was the 7th most pre-saved album on Spotify of all time)
But it hasn't had anywhere near the cultural impact of Ballads 1 and Nectar, or even Smithereens for that matter (purely because of Glimpse of Us, though).
Slow Dancing In The Dark, Sanctuary, and Glimpse of Us are all iconic songs. The most popular song on on PITW, Pixelated Kisses, has had nowhere near the impact of these songs.
Other than Pixelated Kisses, the second most popular song (Love You Less) has the same number of listens on Spotify as the least popular song on Smithereens.
I also think the doppelganger thing was a huge mistake that backfired spectacularly. It was meant to be funny, but once people realised they weren't going to see Joji at all (whose image is a big part of his career), they sort of tuned out.
Joji has only performed once since the album released, and only a single song, but it wasn't even a song off of the album.
I personally believe this is the reason that Filthy Frank was mentioned in the promo reel for the tour; purely because there wasn't enough passion about the album itself to create interest in the tour.
I'm probably gonna catch some heat for this lmao, but I'm interested to hear what others think.

JOJI’s “SMITHEREENS” received more streams than “Piss In The Wind” on Spotify yesterday.

@lizardBoiFr @nbduckman can't really say no label though, he still gets support and benefits from UMG distribution
English

@nbduckman Also too Joji not being on a label does actually matter. For not being on a label this is a successful album. But for Joji this is a flop regardless. I agree with everything you saying pretty much tho. There were definitely a lot of measures Joji could have done better for promo

@kanyewest anyone else pre-order Bully back in 2024 and never get it? Ye, where’d everyone’s $5 go?

@jimmyjerkit @QNDZYcom you can walk into some shops and get a digital store key for xbox and nintendo games. you can't get that on playstation, "CD keys" don't exist. only direct from playstation store in terms of digital downloads.

@QNDZYcom Is the UK going broke or something? They’re on a litigation spree versus the gaming industry.

@TernsCheese this. and then to create a bunch of special modes (festival, rocket racing) and then seemingly just give up on them overnight...

@JP1996K @7jayseven @TheCartoonBase well he still his own character with his own story and his own villains. shouldn't that creativity come with some kind of reward instead of a bare minimum hourly wage??
English

@mattsolol @7jayseven @TheCartoonBase Miles is another spider man why would a co creator deserve a dime?
English

@monsternihilist @7jayseven @TheCartoonBase if employed or contracted by a company to create a character or whatever, that becomes property of said company
English

@7jayseven @TheCartoonBase I'm assuming he already sold his copyright long ago
English

@7jayseven @TheCartoonBase quite common unfortunately. miles morales co-creator also sees no royalties from spider-verse
English

@TheCartoonBase They're making a movie based on his creation coming out in theaters THIS YEAR and they can't help him out? That doesn't seem fair
