Gagafy 296 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 For me, it was her old recipe and lack of substance in music. She constantly used the shock and gimmicky values ala; sexualized candy and bubblegum pop. Her music was still lyrically dumb. At such debut for Smile, this is definitely a nail to the coffin for her. Unless reinvention happens, I dont foresee she stays in the industry anymore. What you guys think?

BeIIadonna 5,480 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 People got bored of her & none of her songs were pushed enough (more NRO rather than anything else though). I.. don't think it's fair to say she won't be in the industry anymore though While she probably won't have anymore commercial successes (which, imo, shouldn't even matter in the first place, it should always be the actual music that matters rather than the chart placement) I feel like she still has a fanbase that'll listen to the songs she releases in the future.

That's for me personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom 1,842 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Katys audience was always young children, when she was at her biggest it was because she was the only one in the market for them, who else was there at the time, there was gaga, rihanna, beyonce, kesha, nicki, britney and that was about it, katy was the only one making music and video that children would be interested in. Over time other popstars came on the scene who appealed to children like ariana, meghan trainor, taylor (she moved from country to pop) etc etc. She was no longer the only one for them and thus her popularity went downhill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was one of her Small Talk performances that made me realise it that Hot N' Cold performance though... Just now, Gagafy said: well true, but i really couldnt connect with her much to her music, lyrically. That's for me personally. Fair tbh For me, Katy has always been an artist that I don't go to lyrics for, but listen for fun songs instead. I can't say I've actually connected with any of her lyrics either though honestly, so I get what you mean. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HausOfAntonio 8,021 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I’ll reply the same thing to every topic about this: She is not talented enough to maintain a legacy career, period. She milked it for all it was worth while it lasted, but eventually people get bored if you don’t have some sort of exceptional talent to sustain an audience. Nothing against her personally, but I do honestly believe this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsterofFame 1,785 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I think it's because even though Katy had some great singles, they became as popular as they did because of payola. It was an open secret that Katy and Rihanna's teams were huge with payola via Clear Channel (iHeartRadio) stations -- and they own all the most popular ones. When you are force-fed a song 100 times, you grow to like it. There's also the mindset that if something is well-liked by others, you will end up liking it too by association. In the streaming era, radio stations don't have much impact anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
