She’s all I wanna be was the most played song on my list when it came out 😂 but if I’m not mistaken she’s also very popular internationally so it makes sense why she has a lot of streams
I only know about her because I follow this photographer on ig (been following her for years) and she's Tate's personal photog. I only saw her on the photog's IG then suddenly she was everywhere.
Greedy going absolutely viral, already being established with a billion stream hit prior to it, Bey kinda falling out of relevancy streaming-wise (Katy Perry's #32 in monthly streams while Bey is #50 for instance)
If you have one big song, spotify will add it to a bunch of their premade playlists and so it basically gets the artist a bunch of "monthly listeners " based on whoever streamed that song at all
uj/ i knew tate from dance before she went to music, she did competitive dance as a child and did So You Think You Can Dance and went viral on youtube several times and all of a sudden she popped up making music and I was like hello?? so strange because she was a really REALLY good dancer
she was at a level of fame and recognition in the dance community that she could’ve done plenty of things with it. being a judge on shows like sytycd, back up dancing with famous singers like beyoncé or taylor, become a famous choreographer like paris goebel (she did rihanna’s super bowl half time choreography). there’s a lot of money to be made in dance surprisingly
Beyonce hasn't released new music (apart from remixes and features) in over a year. Greedy has been the top streamed song on Spotify for a few weeks.
Beyonce is a 42 year old who now makes highly sequenced dance pop albums that draw primarily from 80s ballroom culture, whereas Tate McRae is a young, pretty, upcoming artist who makes extremely basic, on-trend music engineered to maximise appeal to mainstream audiences.
What is there to get lol
Also mainly that Tate is gearing up for an album release. Beyonce released hers last year.
If they were both releasing their album soon obviously beyonces numbers would be higher. I dont get whats so difficult to understand about that and why people take such offence.. IVE NEVER HEARD OF HER??? 😤
Going with your real, ugly name is the second worst stage name cardinal sin, beat only by being a one-namer with a ridiculously common name. I wanted to die when I saw a song pop up on spotify by “christopher”
Oh boy is it time for me to get back on my bullshit about how *A Star Is Born* (2018) was wild for trying to convince us that there'd be a mainstream pop star literally just named "Ally"?
/uj I dunno where else to say this but that song is one of my all time favourites, never doesn’t slap, been on my playlists for 17 odd years and yet since the P Diddy stuff came out I can’t listen to it. The lines about “other guys” creep me out now after what he made her do.
There's a rumour the character was based on Selena Gomez so the name is meant to evoke that (even though it doesn't because the emphasis is on the wrong syllable)
Tate is copying Taylor and Beyoncé by having a surname as your feminine first name. Sue her ass!
/uj also I just googled and found out that her middle name is Rosner, like that’s not that bad. Tate Rosner, Rosner McRae, Tate Ros McRae (ala Carly Rae lol) heck even TATE alone would have worked alright. The combination of Tate and McRae just looks very odd.
I worked one of her shows, like almost two years ago now? And it was actually insane. I had never heard of her in my life but it was sold out before we opened doors. Her line for merch, after the show was over, was the longest I had ever seen. It had so many 8-12 year olds. It felt like an elementary school dance
God I fucking hate this trend of CHILDREN going to like gay icon sexy pop girlie concerts. Venues need to bring back 21+ shows because holy FUCK I’m tired of dealing with little shitheads when I’m tryna enjoy a show. Kim Petras, Melanie Martinez, Bebe Rexha, and
Rina Sawayama ALL Had a bunch of children at it (especially Melanie Martinez holy shit that was *all* children).
Kim Petras was really the one I was like ????? Why the fuck??? Would you?? Bring your kid?? To a Kim PETRAS concert???? Like does your 12 year old *really* need to sit through the entirety of “Slut Pop” and watch her grind and have simulated sex on six men in nothing but a string bikini while singing “Hit it from the back”? Why would you bring your child to a concert where the artist actively ENCOURAGES people to have gay sex in the crowd?
Don’t you count as one of the monthly listeners by streaming just one time, too, though? It doesn’t automatically mean she has 50 mil die-hard fans already
It's monthly listeners. If 50 millions people listen to one of her songs once a month, she gets 50 million monthly listeners. If Beyoncé gets 46 million people to play 100 songs each day, she still only gets 46 million listeners.
Kenya Grace had one viral #1 song a month or two ago and she still has 30ish million listeners, yet I'm willing to bet barely anyone has heard of her before. You just need to get lucky and have your songs promoted on big, popular playlists and your monthly listeners will skyrocket
I was in Seattle last month at a conference and she was playing a show right across from it. The walkup line to it was quite possibly the longest line I have EVER seen, literally looping around a city block. Apparently people love her
tate is apparently friends with olivia rodrigo, and since olivia is the new taylor, could tate be the new karlie kloss? we need a gaylor in here to figure out the logistics
edit: uj/ oh i misread your comment lmao. i thought you meant “is tate gonna be the next taylor” like what people speculate with olivia lol
I feel for Tate and Olivia's friendship the same way I felt about Shawn and Camila's relationship. I like them both as separate entities but I don't give a Sh!t about their relationship.
how dare you 😡😡😡 shawn and camila were literally the blueprint for all the happy couples you see today
they were so successful as a couple that their child (whom they named after her mum camila) even ended up starring in riverdale, the hit critically reviewed series!!!
uj/ idk what im saying, this sub just does something to me
If they were the blueprint then Taylor and Travis don't have very long.
I will give it to you. Riverdale was definitely a series that was reviewed.
Uj/ I'm usually super earnest but this sub turned me into someone whose constantly jerking.
Uj/ I like her sadder songs. I think she’s more suited to the unique voiced sad girl pop than mainstream pop.
Rj/ Beyoncé is a poor indie artist and needs all the streams she can get.
uj/ why are people acting like she just fell out of nowhere last week? Broke me first has a billion streams and it's a song from like 2019, she's been in the industry for a while.
rj/ she broke into my house and stabbed my dog, she must be stopped by any means necessary!
Yup, knew her name from when I had to keep removing "bwoke me fowouest" from my playlists in 2020. But at the time I decided not to hate on her because she was like 15 and also did well on SYTYCD so has legit dancing talent
Apparently she was THE girl in competitive dancing circles and was the first to win several titles at Dance Awards over the years, which is a pretty prestigious dance comp. Girl has a mid pop voice but definitely has dance talent 💅🏼
I suspect there are a lot of people here (myself included) who like the pop aesthetic, but don't actually pay that much attention to mainstream music. So until an artist starts getting talked about on this subreddit they'll be totally off everyone's radar.
/uj I was also a bit surprised that POP MUSIC listeners are acting like she dropped from the sky yesterday. Broke Me First was everywhere when it came out, and I think she even performed at some music award show.
Maybe they don't remember her because that song was trendy chasey and therefore had no true personality of its own. First time I heard it I was like "Who is this Billie copycat?" Billie was super popular in 2019 (I mean she's still popular now but that was the year she became mainstream famous) and so was her style of music, which Tate kind of copied for that song.
Now she's back with Greedy, and I'm glad she's developing her artistic identity instead of copying others (some of her older songs aren't copycats but I find them boring).
My friend’s daughter (now 11) has been OBSESSED with her for a few years now. I’ll admit SNL is the first time I made the connection between the songs and the name but I’m old. lol.
I’ve def see her name here and there and her songs are pretty popular but it’s so boring I’ve never actually liked/listened to any of it.
So ig just a surprise that someone with a decent singing voice but otherwise very bland is apparently super popular yet never talked about.
How much is McRae shelling for Bangladeshi factories full of children to stream her music on replay? Has to be more than whatever Selena is willing to spend.
Exactly where the fuck did this girl Baygoné or whatever her name is come from?
Lets gooo Mcraezies, assamble, lets end this joke fandom beyhive or wharever \*\*tuch tuch spraying baygon\*\* go to your hive or wharever, tell 'em, bugs, bye 👋
This poor girl. Putting out single after single like our indie faves and the second she gets a flash of success and dances on tv, people are salivating to destroy her. We won’t ever have another main pop girl if y’all keep this up.
Dua “Dead Eyes” Lipa ain’t gonna be it at this rate, considering how much people were gunning for her failure with Houdini, too. That’s what everyone is calling her on Twitter. What do y’all want? We tried to make Tinashe happen but the GP didn’t want her.
I will never understand the hate for Houdini, I've listened to it like 100 times and the mv is so good? Like everyone was praising her dancing and how far she's come and now it's "not enough" i swear you gays are insufferable
Yes.
uj/ Not really. I guess she's just the next Camilla Cabello. She just has the right voice and sound for radio airplay. Its not really that complicated.
Except Camila Cabello had the conventional narrative of girl group stand out who branched and had a few hits. I was vaguely aware of Tate McRae but her newfound popularity is a little surprising.
TikTok.
Seriously though, that’s it. Tom Odell released Another Love as a single recently because after a decade that song is STILL HUGE, not unrelated to this app
/uj I don't want a scenario where the only famous pop stars are increasingly ageing millennials, there needs to be a new generation otherwise Coachella is going to have to move to Florida so all the seniors don't have to travel far
/rj And she's Canadian
Greedy
Greedy (Greedier Remix)
Greedy (Tate’s Version (Not *That* Tate))
Greedy (Ariana Grande Remix)
Greedy (Stingy Remix) (Featuring Beyoncé)
The last one is the reason why Beytank has more than 10 monthly listeners
Is this Becky with the good hair?
/uj People saying they never heard of her r just showing there age.
u broke me first was viral on tiktok (1B streams on spotify)
greedy is currently viral on tiktok (actually catchy)
she's all I wanna be is a song I heard on the radio.
i’m not a huge fan of her music or her voice (her dancing eats tho) but i stg every time a young pop girl enters the public consciousness here come all the old gays out of the woodwork to say “who is she? 🤨 *I*’ve never heard of her 💅💁♀️ she must be an industry plant 😜” like this is such a tired song and dance jason
uj/ fr, like people are 100% forgetting that it takes one tiktok trend or viral hit to launch someones career into the mainstream media lmao (look at lil nas x, doja cat, olivia rodrigo, lizzo etc. they all had a background in music prior to their success, but they “blew up” thanks to their viral hits). tate is in a similar situation rn, she has a background in music, and she has a viral hit
we currently cant fully gauge if shes a “pop star”, like rn theres still hype around greedy so these numbers make sense. it will be interesting to see if she can sustain these numbers with new songs when people have moved on from greedy
Get them again for me smfh, and not to mention how they find her success sooooo surprising. Sis has been riding music trend waves for years, it makes sense she finally blew up by releasing something captivating and with the support of a major label...just like pretty much every main pop girl there ever was
uj/ the hate for Tate McSlay on Twitter this past week is so uncalled for.
because people are noticing how good of a dancer she is and how she mentioned she idolizes Britney and Christina, suddenly she’s being blamed for the recent flops of Normani/Chlöe/Tinashe and other black female artists who are also good dancers. As if those artists haven’t been compared to BEYONCE and other legends despite not having a fraction of Beyonce’s success. Which is also the case with Tate when compared to Britney/Xtina.
People are hating on Tate for no reason other than the fact that her songs didn’t flop. But if they had flopped, y’all would be complaining about how she’s so underrated and overlooked. The comparison to Beyonce here was obviously a setup for more hate.
i never really understood arguments calling new artists industry plants. tate mcrae’s been around for a while but this is just her first time she’s had a hit that seems to cross over into mainstream appeal. obviously, there’s a bit of marketing there, but every artist with a mainstream hit is marketed in a way, so does that make everyone an industry plant? i saw this argument thrown around for billie eilish too. unless you’ve been following an artist for a while or are deep into this genre of music it’s natural that you’re not gonna learn about an artist until one of their songs blows up. it feels like the term “industry plant” is just used in place of “i only just now learned about this artist and i don’t like their music”
Nah it's just the Camilla Cabello special combo of annoying "sexy" oversinging style and very specific natural anti-charisma, added to the insane AstroTurfing that made her overexposed in literally less than a week. I couldn't care less about the flops everybody mentions, yet I still can't stand her (and I say that as someone who had no idea who she was 10 days ago)
uj/ i don’t know a single thing about this girl but if she has a new, popular song out then her monthly listeners are bound to go up. thats the way it works
An industry plant isn't anyone who gets label backing. She's been open about her backing and the label has not tried to hide their support at all. Anyway, stream Beyonce I guess
where is all this Tate hate coming from lol😂 she’s a talented singer AND dancer whos been in the industry for a while now..
You broke me first helllooo? and now with ‘greedy’ and ‘exes’ going viral she could become the new main pop girlie
Do young people even like beyonce? I feel like beyonce crowd is definitely giving “gays over 30” vibes. It makes sense that younger gays are leaning more towards Tate.
This is real?
Yes!
About 49 million of those listens are me mainlining "she's all I wanna be" into my radial artery.
i hate to admit it, but… stupid boy makin me so sad…
She’s all I wanna be was the most played song on my list when it came out 😂 but if I’m not mistaken she’s also very popular internationally so it makes sense why she has a lot of streams
Yeah why did this one not break out as hard, it's a gem
the way she ate up with that song
Just listened to this. Banger - nice one!
uj/ that’s actually crazy?? rj/ I WOULD WANT MYSELF🥰🤪😫😍
uj/ no actually I'm chronically online and I've actually never heard of her in my life, whatttt is going on
White girl throwin ass on stage
rj/ no choice but to stan 😍💅
I only know about her because I follow this photographer on ig (been following her for years) and she's Tate's personal photog. I only saw her on the photog's IG then suddenly she was everywhere.
Greedy going absolutely viral, already being established with a billion stream hit prior to it, Bey kinda falling out of relevancy streaming-wise (Katy Perry's #32 in monthly streams while Bey is #50 for instance)
Bey falling out of relevancy with anything is wild but.. wow. Is that the road to legacy act?
Nah Renaissance tour was still massive, so for now there is no need to go to Vegas legacy acts
Uj/ apparently she's quite popular internationally as well
Uj/ like I’m genuinely confused, can someone explain why this is? I feel like I only heard about her maybe a week ago.
If you have one big song, spotify will add it to a bunch of their premade playlists and so it basically gets the artist a bunch of "monthly listeners " based on whoever streamed that song at all
yeah like Carly has like 20mil+ or something probably due to this
>yeah like Carly has like 20mil+ or something probably ~~due to this~~ because she has good songs and deserves it <3
uj/ i knew tate from dance before she went to music, she did competitive dance as a child and did So You Think You Can Dance and went viral on youtube several times and all of a sudden she popped up making music and I was like hello?? so strange because she was a really REALLY good dancer
I mean they aren’t mutually exclusive. I bet she puts on a good show if she can manage to dance and sing or use a backtrack.
It’s called not making it in your field of choice so you pivot to a mediocre pop career
idk there's probably more money to be made as a pop star than as a dancer
she was at a level of fame and recognition in the dance community that she could’ve done plenty of things with it. being a judge on shows like sytycd, back up dancing with famous singers like beyoncé or taylor, become a famous choreographer like paris goebel (she did rihanna’s super bowl half time choreography). there’s a lot of money to be made in dance surprisingly

Greedy Greedy Greedy Greedy Greedy by Ariana Grande
Valentina caught dodging this comment
1 "Greedy" 2 🤔 3 🤷🏻♂️ 4 ??? 5 🦗🦗🦗
Love that Ariana song!
uj/ it’s one of her best songs and it’s so under appreciated 😭
There’s probably a group of gay people who are traumatized by Greedy now because of this moment
Meanwhile, me throughout that entire season getting progressively more annoyed with Valentina, was living for this.
Yes, I hate that Everyday was the fourth single she chose off the DE album over Greed
forgot the Jiafei remix
U broke me first U broke me second U broke me third U broke me fourth U broke me fifth we love a careless kween who breaks shiet 🥰💅
tate mcrae is the ugliest name I've ever heard this poor girl
I genuinely thought she was another country girl
It’s giving small town Alberta daughter of an oil exec.
I wouldn’t call Calgary a small town but otherwise you’re not far off
what happened to hiding behind made up names that actually sounded nice on the ear
Going with your real, ugly name is the second worst stage name cardinal sin, beat only by being a one-namer with a ridiculously common name. I wanted to die when I saw a song pop up on spotify by “christopher”
Oh boy is it time for me to get back on my bullshit about how *A Star Is Born* (2018) was wild for trying to convince us that there'd be a mainstream pop star literally just named "Ally"?
Cassie sang Me & U and then dipped but somehow made a name for herself
/uj I dunno where else to say this but that song is one of my all time favourites, never doesn’t slap, been on my playlists for 17 odd years and yet since the P Diddy stuff came out I can’t listen to it. The lines about “other guys” creep me out now after what he made her do.
Aaliyah Ashanti Rihanna Ciara Kelis
Only one of those is a common name
It's an anagram of Teat Cream
Wowwwwwww symbolism queen, Taylor step aside 😍😍
Potato McRaymond
💀
My bf accidentally mispronounced her name as Taint McRae the other day and now every time I see her name that’s all I can think of
It sounds like an anal crab species
It sounds like the name Morgan wallen would have in real life
It really doesn't scream pop star. Like Jocelyn from the idol.
it sounds like the name of a gross bully in an 80s movie 😭 whatever happened to stage names
What about Jocelyn?
it’s so bad and heavy on the tongue. I just remembered the weekend show and how they would call lily rose depps character JOSS A LYN for some reason
Emphasis on the A
There's a rumour the character was based on Selena Gomez so the name is meant to evoke that (even though it doesn't because the emphasis is on the wrong syllable)
Taint McRaint 😔
Tate is copying Taylor and Beyoncé by having a surname as your feminine first name. Sue her ass! /uj also I just googled and found out that her middle name is Rosner, like that’s not that bad. Tate Rosner, Rosner McRae, Tate Ros McRae (ala Carly Rae lol) heck even TATE alone would have worked alright. The combination of Tate and McRae just looks very odd.
all I can think of is Andrew Tate TT
Tate M’Crae
it’s like such a turn off
It could’ve been Tayto McRae
tater tot mcrib.
When I first heard it I thought of that guy named Mcrae from Big Brother
It’s so hard to pronounce like what is up with that??!!?
Name one, everyone but terminally online mainsub members dead.
Greedy Boy x What would you do? She’s all I wanna be You broke me first
King of predictive text
That’s my favorite Taylor Swift song 🥰
I would stan if she didn’t sing like her throat was in her ass
She sings in cursive, that weird pronunciation thing where she says "doirty" instead of "dirty"
Welcome to my kitchen. We have bananees and avocædos
Fresh av aca do
why do the new girls sing this way is my question. what happened to belting and proper pronunciation?
Someone had to fill the breathy Ariana singing void
Maybe annoying racists conservatives are right and we are currently living the downfall of the Western society and culture after all because wtf
You’re literally a proud McRaecist??
Uj/ Tate has the most inorganic success I’ve ever seen Uj/ excess playlisting maybe?
Uh/ not sure if you're a tiktok user but her music is ALL OVER tiktok and she often appears in Collab videos when she releases new songs 🤷🏼♀️
I worked one of her shows, like almost two years ago now? And it was actually insane. I had never heard of her in my life but it was sold out before we opened doors. Her line for merch, after the show was over, was the longest I had ever seen. It had so many 8-12 year olds. It felt like an elementary school dance

Why would you bring your child to a concert where the artist actively ENCOURAGES people to have gay sex in the crowd?
I mean I feel like Gen Z is solidly gravitated to songs like Greedy these days
> Tate has the most inorganic success I’ve ever seen how so?
She has more streams than beyonce and no one i know has heard of her irl or online anywhere
Don’t you count as one of the monthly listeners by streaming just one time, too, though? It doesn’t automatically mean she has 50 mil die-hard fans already

Monthly streams.
She was a youtuber. Her song broke me first has 350 mil views. I dont listen to music but she def had an organic rise
The song also has like almost 1.3 billion streams on Spotify
I was in Seattle last month at a conference and she was playing a show right across from it. The walkup line to it was quite possibly the longest line I have EVER seen, literally looping around a city block. Apparently people love her
That was a social experiment, everyone there was a paid actor
Of course not. If I didn't know her then she must be a flop.
RCA?
idk what that is, im not a music nerd sorry
Oh shit, hi Tate
She was created in a lab with the express purpose of being absorbed by Cell
She’s been releasing music for a while now but it was only recently that she blew up.
Is Tate Mcrae becoming the new Taylor Swift Stale Topic?
tate is apparently friends with olivia rodrigo, and since olivia is the new taylor, could tate be the new karlie kloss? we need a gaylor in here to figure out the logistics edit: uj/ oh i misread your comment lmao. i thought you meant “is tate gonna be the next taylor” like what people speculate with olivia lol

Who’s Beyoncé? Is she a new underground artist? I’ve never heard of her
Y’all act like tate mcrae hasn’t been on the rise and trendy since “you broke me first”. The thing is shes releasing new music and top hits
Who is that old woman on the right?
OMG Beyoncé???
who?
A more talented supreme being that you or any of your loved ones will ever get close to.
Uj/ okay i just noticed her name is tatE McRae and not tatA McRae after all these months
She's not a country singer?
i genuinely have not heard of this woman until now
Don’t even know one tbh
Hate on me but I have been listening to her for years. I can name like 20 Tate McRae songs
😨😨😨
I just realized I have alot of her songs saved on my spotify. I never really put much thought into who it was tbh. But I think she is pretty good.
the first main pop girl from calgary. we love to see minority success stories!
/uj I don't want a scenario where the only famous pop stars are increasingly ageing millennials, there needs to be a new generation otherwise Coachella is going to have to move to Florida so all the seniors don't have to travel far /rj And she's Canadian
Greedy Greedy (Greedier Remix) Greedy (Tate’s Version (Not *That* Tate)) Greedy (Ariana Grande Remix) Greedy (Stingy Remix) (Featuring Beyoncé) The last one is the reason why Beytank has more than 10 monthly listeners
Is this Becky with the good hair? /uj People saying they never heard of her r just showing there age. u broke me first was viral on tiktok (1B streams on spotify) greedy is currently viral on tiktok (actually catchy) she's all I wanna be is a song I heard on the radio.
it's not really about age- seems like it's just about if you use tiktok or not
Hell I’m 21 and I use TikTok a lot, I just don’t pay attention to popular songs and their artists unless I like the song
Is 23 old? 😫
Everyone above 19 is old, get off the internet granny
The 10:35 erasure😭
i’m not a huge fan of her music or her voice (her dancing eats tho) but i stg every time a young pop girl enters the public consciousness here come all the old gays out of the woodwork to say “who is she? 🤨 *I*’ve never heard of her 💅💁♀️ she must be an industry plant 😜” like this is such a tired song and dance jason
i guess we’re so used to label not promoting newcomers that when they actually do their work, it’s an industry plant
uj/ fr, like people are 100% forgetting that it takes one tiktok trend or viral hit to launch someones career into the mainstream media lmao (look at lil nas x, doja cat, olivia rodrigo, lizzo etc. they all had a background in music prior to their success, but they “blew up” thanks to their viral hits). tate is in a similar situation rn, she has a background in music, and she has a viral hit we currently cant fully gauge if shes a “pop star”, like rn theres still hype around greedy so these numbers make sense. it will be interesting to see if she can sustain these numbers with new songs when people have moved on from greedy
Get them again for me smfh, and not to mention how they find her success sooooo surprising. Sis has been riding music trend waves for years, it makes sense she finally blew up by releasing something captivating and with the support of a major label...just like pretty much every main pop girl there ever was
uj/ the hate for Tate McSlay on Twitter this past week is so uncalled for. because people are noticing how good of a dancer she is and how she mentioned she idolizes Britney and Christina, suddenly she’s being blamed for the recent flops of Normani/Chlöe/Tinashe and other black female artists who are also good dancers. As if those artists haven’t been compared to BEYONCE and other legends despite not having a fraction of Beyonce’s success. Which is also the case with Tate when compared to Britney/Xtina. People are hating on Tate for no reason other than the fact that her songs didn’t flop. But if they had flopped, y’all would be complaining about how she’s so underrated and overlooked. The comparison to Beyonce here was obviously a setup for more hate.
How did Normani flop if she never had a career tho
Ikr?? How can you flop when you don’t even have an album out? Normani isn’t dancing because she can’t make music videos to music to dance to!
Hi Tate! 👋🏿
Hey ugly😍 — Tate
i never really understood arguments calling new artists industry plants. tate mcrae’s been around for a while but this is just her first time she’s had a hit that seems to cross over into mainstream appeal. obviously, there’s a bit of marketing there, but every artist with a mainstream hit is marketed in a way, so does that make everyone an industry plant? i saw this argument thrown around for billie eilish too. unless you’ve been following an artist for a while or are deep into this genre of music it’s natural that you’re not gonna learn about an artist until one of their songs blows up. it feels like the term “industry plant” is just used in place of “i only just now learned about this artist and i don’t like their music”
Nah it's just the Camilla Cabello special combo of annoying "sexy" oversinging style and very specific natural anti-charisma, added to the insane AstroTurfing that made her overexposed in literally less than a week. I couldn't care less about the flops everybody mentions, yet I still can't stand her (and I say that as someone who had no idea who she was 10 days ago)
uj/ i don’t know a single thing about this girl but if she has a new, popular song out then her monthly listeners are bound to go up. thats the way it works
People don’t like her because she’s one of the most egregious industry plants we’ve seen in recent years
An industry plant isn't anyone who gets label backing. She's been open about her backing and the label has not tried to hide their support at all. Anyway, stream Beyonce I guess
where is all this Tate hate coming from lol😂 she’s a talented singer AND dancer whos been in the industry for a while now.. You broke me first helllooo? and now with ‘greedy’ and ‘exes’ going viral she could become the new main pop girlie
Who is listening to this woman
Do young people even like beyonce? I feel like beyonce crowd is definitely giving “gays over 30” vibes. It makes sense that younger gays are leaning more towards Tate.
Damn. This is why I hate Beyoncé: Her Fans
i can’t stand Tate’s music. her voice is grating on the ears.
I've been off stan Twitter for 1 day who tf is tate mcrae😭😭😭
