The music industry - and especially pop music - is a competition so it is okay to pit people against each other. Because nobody does it to the men. The women want to be treated as individuals with their own careers. Gaga for example wants to be respected as an artist. She doesn't try to be like her peers and it pisses her off when she's compared to Madonna. It's like it belittles who they are and belittles their music. Gaga could put out a hit and Katy Perry could put one out at the same time that's totally different. But the media will compare them and create a rivalry. Even though they both could be minding their own business living their own lives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a sports thing but it proves there can be competition without disrespect and personal rivalry. I’ll keep looking for Wonderland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not the object of anything. Now look what's left. Just some people trying to make a living by entertaining you. There's room for all of them. They don't have to be rivals. Because of the charts, awards and sales numbers, because of "stans" who want their idols to be the most succesful in everything. As long as people care about those things there will continue to be competition in the music industry. Especially in pop music, because pop artist are expected to be popular and succesful. Nobody cares if an artist like Björk or Sufjan Stevens doesn't hit number 1 or top 10 or even top 50 and nobody cares about their album sales and how much money their tours earn. Because they're not pop artists, so they aren't expected to be super succesful. But Lady Gaga and Britney Spears are pop artists, so people care about their chart succes (or lack thereof) and they care about their sales numbers. And as before mentioned there is the stans. Gaga stans want Gaga to be the best and most succesful. Britney stans want Britney to be the best and most succesful. So they pit their idol and against others. That's the way it is. That's why I see the music industry (especially pop) as a competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That J 12,166 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 The people most concerned about chart positions and things like that are the fans. An artist is just thrilled to be able to create for a living. The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than The Driver Of The Screw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
