There is a downside to having one of the biggest-selling albums ever.
Meaning of the quote
Having a hugely popular album can actually have some drawbacks. Even though it means lots of people love your music, it also comes with more attention, pressure, and expectations. The success of a best-selling album can make it hard for the artist to create something as popular in the future. Sometimes, being too successful can create challenges that an artist has to deal with.
