P!nk is without doubt more relevant than Britney and Christina nowadays, but Britney's name is bigger than P!nk's and she is more iconic than P!nk as well. I'm happy that P!nk is doing good though, she deserves it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because someone likes an artist doesn’t mean they are unique or interesting. Theres plenty of songs that I like but that I don’t find creative or unique. Sales do not equal intrigue.

There are different people with different tastes that like different things and find different things interesting. Obviously for Millions of people Taylor and Ed are interesting right now, just as Gaga was interesting for Millions in 2009-11. We are not talking about uniqueness, that's another thing, you said Taylor was not interesting, but she is not interesting for you, if you ask others they'd say Gaga is boring for example. You can't say what's interesting and whats not, you can say what's interesting for you, you know? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say much about quality of their work though - most people wouldn't know good art if it hit them in the face, they just go along with the hype Men are naturally more dominating, aggressive, and logical thinking because we have balls.

Well the debut week has more to do with hype and fan base more than anything else tbh... most ppl who bought the album barely had time to decide if they liked it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can tell when something is of superior quality in comparison... Just, when it comes to nuance, you have to pay more attention... It's that nuance that's usually skipped on people who haven't been making or looking and examining art extensively... There are artistic skills that are a lot more difficult to master and thus are more valuable - there are things across different disciplines that are more difficult to pull off, so no, it's not all subjective... It's just that there's a difference between saying 'this is good work', and 'I like this work'... I always found the whole 'its just an opinion' argument lazy... It kinda makes it sound like all opinions are equal - they aren't... That argument is similar to 'nothing really matters cuz everyone will die eventually' spiel - that may be so, but aside from provoking a thought or two, that argument is useless - there's little application to it...

GagaMyBlood95 9,867 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I mean, it is a huge number but we really have to take into consideration that half of that is from the ticket bundle which is again huge.

That's why I said talented popstar. One who has shown their true ability to the GP lol. It's consistent with other popstars who have gotten mad respect from the GP lately like Gaga.
