    from the august publication, The Daily Mail, read by housewives, world wide,
    How Jennifer Lopez has fallen from grace due to 'bonkers' documentary, lack of tour sales and album debuting with just 14,000 streams

    She has been dubbed the 'Queen of Dance' and is considered one of the most influential Latin entertainer of all time with six albums going Platinum.

    But Jennifer Lopez's carer seemed to have plateaued of late.

    He recent tour, her first in five years, has been met with low ticket sales, while her new album is lacking her typical fanfare, debuting with just 14,000 streams and at number 38 on the Billboard 200.

    this is a far cry from her early noughties peak, when the singer sold more than 80 million records and had global headline tours.

    Even four years ago, the star was applauded for one of the greatest Superbowl halftime shows in history, where she performed a medley of her greatest hits with Shakira as millions of people watched around the world.

    So, where exactly did Jenny from the Block go wrong?

    I think its a cautionary tale, for all artists. You grow or you die, or you wind up playing at Holiday Inn by the airport or Indian Casinos.
    It's what helps to make the Beatles unique, they grew artistically an amazing amount over a short career of about a decade.

    What is this nonsense? By no stretch of the imagination can number 38 on the Billboard 200 be considered a "flop".
    Also, from the album in question:

    Can't Get Enough 8,255,880 streams
    This Is Me…Now 2,020,616 streams
    Rebound 982,173 streams
    Hearts and Flowers 762,860 streams
    To Be Yours 691,918 streams
    not.going.anywhere. 652,162 streams
    Mad in Love 626,069 streams

    and so on..

    Definitely in some social circles position 38 compared to number 1 is considered a flop

    i was even aware that she made something new, only as it was posted here, i went checking out her album on spotify ...

    its very different from 10 years ago to advertise an album today ...
    i mean why listen to new music, when you have 20k tracks in your likes on spotify?

    i think is only considered a flop because of the amount of money she invested

    yes what is referred to as bang for the buck. very low return on such a lot of money. at this point it looks like a vanity project since she paid for all her own costs.

    I think it's not personal, people are just looking for another kind of creativity and especially lyrics, regarding what's going on in Palestine and the world right now, so yeah spinning imaginary love stories is not going to make it.
