I hate mainstream music. I hate what happens to music that is watered down for the masses.
Do you not realize how pretentious you sound lol?
Most artists have some A&R development before they get off the ground but people don’t like it when they can obviously see the puppet strings. When it’s done well, good artist development feels organic even though it isn’t. In this day and age
when young artists are building their own celebrity and fan base in a self directed fashion online well before they get picked up by a label, someone making music like HER feels even more contrived than normal. That’s why she’s getting the dreaded industry plant label. I feel like I can see the guitar and deportment lessons when she’s on stage.
Like I said before the music, image and marketing chosen for her feels like a middle age record exec’s idea of “good” music vs something a 23 year old came created and connects with.
for the bolded, who you see out here building up “organic” followings, bcus the idea that anyone can the way you said is a fantasy. but still, I’m curious as to who you are referring to bcus I don’t see none of that
I don’t think having a&r development means having “puppet strings”. You need to construct your vision and who exactly you are as an artist before being released out into the world, where if you don’t have neither of those, ppl will grow tired of you.
