How do you know Rare isn't Selena's vision? SAMPLING and adapting lyrical content/a melody into a new context in a creative way is NOT the same as just recording your own version of someone else's song Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.peter 3,515 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 people forget theres such a thing as a recording artist. they record music with their voice to make art. Is she's talented ? thats subjective Whitney Houston never wrote any of her records... but that voice is art ! she's a recording artist Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the answer is because she enjoys it, but she- and other artists, in my opinion- should develop some integrity and write their own sh*t Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if we're calling not artists people that don't write or produce their songs we'll have like 10 artists. Gaga didn't write Come to Mama or TIHTY for example, yet we're not saying she's not an artists. Her biggest songs use samples like BR or PF. Britney does the same as Selena, Beyonce and Rihanna share Sia's custody. Being an artist is way more than not recording original songs. another shot before we kiss the other side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Selena took the odd song, like Gaga with Telephone and Come To Mama (although she has writing credits on it and  co-produced it too, same with TIHTY), then it wouldn't matter because it's a one off- but she probably barely writes anything for herself Also sampling is not the same thing. Sampling is like wearing an outfit inspired by someone else's look, but putting your own spin on it and adapting it, showing admiration in the process. Not straight up copying their look, which is in my opinion what Selena is doing on this album. A compilation of other artist's rejects Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
