Quark 7,085 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 o<(0_0)>oAt this point in time the biggest popstar is Taylor Swift. Like Gaga at her peak, she is getting the kind of attention, acclaim, and success that very few artists receive. But Taylor Swift doesn't feel Iconic like Gaga. When Gaga was at her peak, you could feel that you were witnessing something fresh, powerful, innovative, and iconic. On the other hand, Taylor feels like all other artists with the exception that she is very successful. I mean, Taylor has good songwriting talent, but overall her music and image are very simple and mainstream. At this time she simply lacks the originality to be as iconic as someone like Gaga.

Katsuki Bakugo 9,788 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Because she isn't fresh or new anymore. If All You Ever Do Is Look Down On People, You Won't Be Able To Recognize Your Own Weaknesses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brainiac 10,590 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 She 100% is not iconic. There's nothing iconic about her actually. She's just extremely popular at the moment. That's it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grenziel 538 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Based on the Title, I thought Taylor said that herself. Imagine. She's pretty stale compare to the likes of Gaga, Madonna and other popstars however she's still unique in her own way .. Some of them want to abuse you, some of them want be abused.

Bradley 57,126 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 She's somehow iconic in her own way, maybe not as huge as Gaga's version but she has some influence in this music biz today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman 4,660 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Because Taylor doesn't stir converstaion and debate. Everything she does is calculated and geared towards breaking records, PR image, and selling music.I feel as though everything she does that will stir up some controversy is deflected and polished by her PR team.And when she *tries* to be controversial like with her whole war on streaming, everyone moves on because its so transparent. And like I said, her over the top PR takes away from the natural discussion. It's science, bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIVA 666 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I feel this as well. She's been very successful since her inception, but she's never really made a huge mark of originality or steered the music industry in a certain direction. Her influence to me seems more like a Beyonce than a Gaga, Madonna, Michael Jackson etc. I think it's mostly because she creates inside the bubble of what has come before, to ensure maximum appeal/sales, rather than pushing for something more original and unique.

djBuffoon 12,003 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 First of all, I think Taylor is an excellent songwriter. She's not a good singer, she has yet to impress me as a stage performer, but her bread + butter is her skill with melodies, and she is great at it.Having said that, I think Taylor solely as a public figure, her standing as someone of notoriety, will have more staying power than any of her songs or videos. To my recollection, she has yet to have a moment that feels truly original or seismic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanko 9,860 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 not everyone is going to be gaga/madonna not every pop star has to wear a meat dress and come out of an egg or make a s-x book stop being insecure about gaga Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegiRey 443 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I agree, it doesnt feel like Gaga at her peak, but she is an icon. Gaga is like Michael Jackson, pink floyd, madonna, cindy lauper and Taylor is like Britney at her peak and christina Aguilera, and idk who else ive been drinking tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
