You mean the photocards that literally make K-Pop physical album sales not count towards the UK charts
fff I didn't know this. Screaming.You mean the photocards that literally make K-Pop physical album sales not count towards the UK charts
It's because each K-Pop album comes with a random set of photocards, and the UK charts don't allow releases to have "randomised elements". That's why you often see big K-Pop releases near the top of the US charts, but not in the UK ones, as only digital sales and streams are counted there. Now if every copy of Jade's album comes with the exact same photocards then I imagine that won't be an issue, hopefully she and RCA are aware of that.
Oh this must have been introduced recently because I remember the deluxe edition of 1989 having exactly that.
Considering their incompetence…
And that usually is the same with one smart link and should boost both. I’d say 3-4 weeks max but get fucking on with it RCA.
Yeah, after looking it up it seems like this was something that was implemented in 2019/2020. It's basically only K-Pop albums that are affected, as random photocards have never been a thing in albums by Western artists, I can't really think of any that had that beyond 1989.

Didn’t someone mention the other day that they felt as if Jade gave us hints of the album artwork with a poster of the “hand of the industry” holding her on both the FUFN poster and the Silent Disco posters that were shown on Angel of my Dreams videos?
She just shared a random Diana photoshoot on Instagram and my mind immediately went back to that…
Anyway, she’s just announced she’s playing TRNSMT festival on July 13th in Glasgow.

Urgh, I’m desperate to see her but after seeing Sugababes there last year, I will never step foot back in that festival.
When she uses all of these festival booking fees to fund the eventual self-release of this album…chess, not checkers!
And after she announces, we can all freak out about the tracklist.
