Reginald 13,841 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I'm only really enjoying the singles + Witness and Pendulum, but her promo is very entertaining this time. Also kudos to whoever does her makeup, her eyes in the OP interview look massive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so experimental and electronic omg. I had an eargasm listening to it I think it's better than how it's generally perceived but this is not touching Ray of Light.

bumblebee 2,528 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I don't hold anything against Katy Perry as a person. However, I do question her authenticity as an artist. Katy is more of an entertainer, and I think the giant problem of her image originates in the fact that she doesn't seem to understand that being an entertainer and being an artist is not the same. To begin with, she is kind of stuck with her Max Martin/Dr. Luke team for the vast part of her discography. Witness is the only album of hers to not feature Dr. Luke, while One of the Boys is the only record without Max Martin. What I mean to say is that she relies so much on well-established composers and hit writers that her own input in her songs is not clear enough. And she doesn't push any sonic boundaries by staying with them for four LPs, to a comical extent when her songs can be easily attributed to Taylor Swift/Avril Lavigne from The Best Damn Thing, etc. What partly makes Lana, Lorde and Gaga great is that they brought new producers for their sound and they are not afraid to change them instead of relying on the calculated formula. What also has always puzzled me about her is that cold marketing calculation that stands behind most of the things she does. It's like even when she does that streaming sessions you can't help but try to guess: is it genuine or is it another attempt of her and her team to sell you her newest music? Katy has always acted looking at her target audience and has always planned her actions and campaigns to please the audience. The real relationship between the artist and the audience is different, artists need the audience, but they create out of urge to fulfill their own artistic desires and principles. Shall I remind you how many times Gaga has "disappointed" her fans by giving them something they didn't seem to like or enjoy? Or how outraged some of Lana's fans were when they heard that guitar-tortured ULTRAVIOLENCE and understood that Lana would never serve the Born To Die beatness? Etc. Katy always tries hard to please the audience, to an extent that it seems that her only artistic principle is the loyalty to commercial success. And finally for someone who is not way too artistic herself, she takes too much credit when she allows herself to criticize other artists. I am not talking only about "fart joke" incident here, the list is rather long. I respect her as a person, and I must say that she probably is a great entertainer, surely a successful one, but that does not ensure her cultural legacy - that is something many of her fans struggle to understand.

Prism, Teenage Dream and Witness sound the same, though I love them all. But yes her personality and looks have been evolving.
