I'm going to continuously say this & fight for the concept that whoever sells merch in any part of the music/gaming/film/tv industry really needs to just bite the bullet and commission artists within their respective fanbases. There is so much talent out there and I just can't wrap my head around the fact incredible artists create so much fanart that is beyond worthy to be official merch/ designs, and the companies either ignore them or hit the like button/ leave an emoji. It's just not cool.

 

Also, the Chromatica logo literally being on there is most likely the company just re-using that mockup of the product

They're too cheap for that. There are so many artists, young and old, looking for their chance to finally make money off of their work. A lot of merch is trash.

Isn't Dua selling jockstraps too? The trendsetting. :tony:

Yeah, this is definitely some sort of agreement with this one manufacturer it seems. Its crazy how indie artists usually have much better merch than the big stars tbh

(Also, like IA with @weed , at least Gaga seems to get first dibs on most stuff, lol)

 

Gaga has always been the trendsetter, until she moves on to the next thing and everyone says she's crazy and is flopping...until the cycle repeats and they follow her again.

Big or small sales numbers, her influence in pop culture is always huge.

It looks like green hair and Chromatica jockstraps are the thing now 👀

Sooooo many artists have released artwork, music, and now merch all around green and pink space planetary themes...:madge:

I'm just like...even with the era being so bare it STILL caught the attention of so many :ohwell:

Gaga doesn't get credit where it's due and it's still sad honestly...I don't know why her team doesn't sue people more often...you never hear Gaga going after artists stealing her image or concepts...maybe cuz she doesn't wanna be referred to as a Madonna 2.0? :reductive:

Sigh I know:( it just makes me so sad. I'm an artist. I don't create anymore really, but once an artist, always an artist & I just get emotionally affected sometimes when I see all of these talented people. Some of them are thriving within their own businesses, but there are so many struggling artists who have so many passionate interests that are SO TALENTED like it blows my mind. When I see stuff like this, it just makes me upset. I actively watch Jon from ARTV on youtube, & he's talked about the fact of music labels taking advantage over fans when it comes to very expensive, but cheaply made merch. It's just sad. No one should have to spend anywhere from 40-70 dollars for a poorly printed t-shirt because they just want to support the musician/ band or have a memory from a concert. Back to the artists though, I just will always support artists of all kind, any age because of my respect, appreciation, and personal experiences within the art field. I'd always help fight for things like this. These talents are deserving

I agree with you completely, it is exploitation at its finest. I would also like to add, to be a bit more positive, that I'm seeing so many artists supporting and promoting each other on social media. It's truly heartwarming, especially seeing that some are actually doing well. Artists today are much more aware, and their tolerance for exploitation from rich, greedy companies is a lot less as opposed to before. There are (slowly but surely) many more opportunities today for artists of every kind. Unethical companies and groups can only exploit artists for so long before they have to pay up.
