It won't just like CTC and LFS weren't eligible for jazz categories and Joanne wasn't eligible to Americana categories.

I honestly think everyone here is not that serious. We know ESV can't be compared to FN in anyway (success, general run, promo, content).

In anyway FN is probably the biggest female pop era of the 2020s in every aspect. I don't think anyone else comes close to the impact of her era internationally. 

Miley is doing okay, she's not that huge anyway and she's giving the minimal on this era. She's literally sitting on the smash of Flowers, and I think she's okay with this. 

Yeah, FN is basically a collection of hits (like TD), and it will probably end up being the biggest era of the 2020s.   

ESV certainly underperformed, but it's doing fine (not great, not terrible). Some are just so pressed by the success of Flowers that they are coping with ESV's chart runs.

so basically it'll either be a mega smash or mega flop 

reality: frontloaded but did decently enough in the first few weeks that it can't be considered a flop like AP, J and C

Levitating: 2.5B streams

Gaga is aiming for artistry and legacy so she will ensure mid numbers by not giving it too much attention or sensible promo.

It'll depend on how she works on anticipation of the audience ( which is basically below than low right now). If they are planning a surprise drop with nothing more, expecting her public image to make the work just like Beyoncé or Adele, they are just not ready for the numbers.

They will be unaware of the numbers, so it's okay.

The Fame is the biggest female pop album of the 2000s in the U.K with multiple classics. Of course, it was going to outsell ESV.  

Darling I would’ve expected this 1 year or 2 years after the release of ESV, not 9 weeks after its release ☠️☠️☠️
