Racism accusation

[edit]

Through the years, the Swifties have been accused of racism and misogyny toward nonwhite ethnic groups and especially African Americans artists.

In January 2024 American rapper Tyler, the Creator accused the fanbase of trying to apply the cancel culture on his career after he took over the number one on the global Spotify Top Artist Chart, stopping Taylor Swift 698-day tun at the top.[1][2] In February 2024 Black Lives Matter activist and professor and chair of Pan-African Studies at California State University, Los Angeles, Melina Abdullah stated that "it’s slightly racist to be a Taylor Swift fan. [...] I said feel, not think. Kind of like that feeling I get when there are too many American flags".[3][4] In Novemebr 2024, after Billboard listed Taylor Swift second on the "Greatest Pop Stars of the 21st Century", naming Beyoncé at one, Swifties had started posting racist comments and photos towards Beyoncé on social media.[5] As a reaction numerous users and members of Beyonce's fanbase, the Beyhive, post pointed out incidents where Swifties have targeted black artists, including SZA and Nicki Minaj, with racial slurs in the past with the hashtag #SwiftieRacism.[6][7]

Some (or all) records released and sold prior to a certification system's establishment year may not be found within the available searchable certification databases. Year of establishment (from largest market to smallest based on Retail Value each market generates respectively):[39][40] Certified sales might sometimes be larger than actual sales, if stores order more albums than they are able to sell, due to certifications generally being determined by shipments and not actual sales. Often, however, actual sales are larger than certified sales, since record labels must pay a fee to obtain certifications. Record companies often apply for certifications only when a record reaches a multiple certification-levels, meaning certifications might not be visible in the databases for more than a short period of time after an album reached a certification level.[66][67] As global music sales declined in the 2000s mostly due to CD burning and downloading from unauthorized sites, certification bodies opted to reduce their certification levels.[68] See the changes in Certification-award-levels in the following markets:

    • One lead artist and one featured artist. (The issued certification(s) should be added to the total of both, the lead artist and the featured artist as both will have almost equal amount of part).
    • Two lead artists.(The issued certification(s) should be added to the total of both lead artists as both will have almost equal amount of part).
    • Two lead artists and one featured artist. (The issued certification(s) should be added to the total of both lead artists as well as the featured artist. Both lead artists will play a significant part in a song and the part of the featured artist also should be significant enough).
