The majority of humans currently on planet earth have heard her music lol. Are you more of a tik tok original fan or what? Or are you using a platform you know nothing about to clamor superiority.

I’m no super fan of hers, but literally every major artist(even those most obscure artist only you and your friends know and you’re a super fan of) respect this album, so let’s just all agree you like to target seemingly easy targets with no knowledge of anything.
Um no. I just heard this hot garbage for the first time through this article.

I hate to be the one to tell you that your ears don’t account for half of the earth’s population.

If you’ve never heard one of her songs living in a country where macrumors is available for you to comment, it’s safe to say you may not know a lot of things happening.
 
We all have,..and all agree it's garbage. Maybe we all have listening ears that appreciate good & great music, which this certainly is neither🤷‍♂️
You skipped over and ignored a lot of what I posted to try to fit your view, which was not great.
Who is “we”?
What else are ears for mainly other than listening?
What is good and great music, and who decided?
Does that make you a sheep for avoiding pop music without listening or a sheep for being told what is good and great music?
It has to be one or the other.

Apparently "we all" is the 4 people in here complaining..."Fatties Gone Wild"? Jesus Christ.

Newsflash: Billboard > few anonymous opinions on a tech forum. She has multiple #1 singles this year and billions of Spotify streams. The album opened with the largest sales week of the year and that still stands as of now. She's clearly doing something right. Blackjack is likely out of touch with current music in general, and sounds miserable.
 
Anyone else getting reminded of this:

Yes, Elvis Costello. He loves it!


Costello replied: "This is fine by me.
"It's how rock & roll works," he wrote. "You take the broken pieces of another thrill and make a brand new toy."

He added: "That's what I did."

The veteran singer-songwriter also included hashtags referencing Bob Dylan's 1965 classic Subterranean Homesick Blues, which inspired Pump It Up; and Chuck Berry's 1956 single Too Much Monkey Business, which influenced the Dylan song.
 
Well that sample was horrible.
Probably a combination of them sucking and me being too old for their brand of suckage, if I’m being honest though.
I do like to think that good art is truly timeless, however, and if that’s the case then yeah this isn’t good.
 
Well if it makes me a sheep to avoid aweful music,..then baaaaa! 😁😏..oh btw, I'm in the industry & can tell good music from bad 👍. This certainly ain't a quality tune.
It’s so good for you to share this much needed information with us, in the comments section of this article WHICH ISN’T ABOUT HER MUSIC. I’m so glad that we all now know, uh, your opinion about something.

Now that you’ve flashed your credentials and shown that you know more about about music than anyone else on the forum could possibly know, and have made your pronouncement about the quality of her music… can we get back to talking about Apple?
 
Corporate promotion is corporate.

Good luck random female popstar #64. At first listen your music is pretty generic…hope you can navigate the balance of making art with the drive for fame.
Not sure if this is sarcasm are you’re just proving how creepy and pathetic keyboard warriors can be.

Are you okay? We have been the whole time talking about Apple partnering with an aweful musician,..no? No offense, but we will comment on whatever we chose to, not on what you decide. Why are you wanting to censor peoples opinions? Did anyone stop you commenting on I Robot 😂

Your welcome.

Sold her sould to the devil, it's a requirement to be signed on by a "label" - it's such an inbred industry it barely matters.

Contracts with the music industry are forever. It's literally like signing your soul away and in return, you get fame.

Listen to Tom MacDonald "brainwashed" that's real music, real message, real rap, and ... intelligent conversations.

I don't dump on art, in general, but the propaganda-pushing music labels and hollywood are over. Even artistically they seem unable to produce anything real, even with all their budgets and professionals.

I don't have to smell an elephant's turd to know it stinks. I've smelled plenty of other turds to know it will. I don't have to smell every single variety of turd. To make a general conclusion that turds stink and a particular one I haven't will stink.

Maybe there's a chance one will smell great. But I won't spend my life. Smelling every bad one. In the hopes one mighr smell good.
It's a frequency thing - some get it, some don't.

I don't have to watch every hollywood movie in existence to prove that they all push the narrative that the news is reporting facts (- open your eyes next time, when the news is on in a movie, it's always 100% correct facts, and the cast always learns about important events from the news -) .

But in every movie where the "news" features, it's the same. It's pure propaganda. In real life the news is as correct as the news in China or Russia, namely not at all, never about what happened, only about the agenda that needs to be pushed at the moment. All fake all the time.

So we see the music machine in action, producing one brainless earworm after another, pushing it hard to get into all the minds of the people, not anymore as successfully as they used to be, but still, with much force, and we just know it's crap.
Why is it crap? Because it's supposed to be crap. It's not supposed to make your life better, it's not supposed to make you happy, it's not supposed to empower humans to be more free, it's not supposed to capture the beauty of existence - it's supposed to keep you stuck in a loop of desires and depressions. It's supposed to be crap, and they're pretty good at it by now.
 
Yes, another article involving a teenage female where all the comments will be about how she’s terrible, never heard of her, doesn’t deserve to be famous, virtue signaling by going to the White House etc etc while never listening to the music or knowing anything at all about the person, but has plenty of time to comment how terrible pop culture and awful she is at singing….
Normally I am one of them, but, after listening/viewing content from 2 links from another poster just below yours I think she isn't that bad, actually surprisingly fresh.

Note: I don't like most of the music made nowadays.
