What's stopping artists like Chappell Roan from being MPGs?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Using her an an example, she released her debut album the latter half of last year to a large amount of critical acclaim, you could argue she's bringing a quirk that pop music has missed the last couple of years. Her music is (arguably) a bit T.S. coded, she's working with Dan ***** who's the producer behind Olivia's records. She's pretty, great live (and selling out shows too) and is signed to a major label. What's stopping her, and a lot of these other smaller name artists who are releasing really great pop music, from breaking through into the major markets? Is the GP complacent with the household names they have or are artists like this missing something that would take them up another level in their careers?

I liked her debut initially but there's something faceless about her persona that doesn't make her stick out to me but she's doing alright at the moment. She's touring with Olivia soon so I expect to see pick up a bigger following if she's good live.

 

to be a MPG today is kinda random... you need a huge smash + following up with other hits. that initial smash is so hard to get

the stage name is an obvious issue

The question SHOULD be what's stopping the creation of MPGs??? What new ones do we have, other than Olivia??? We're getting to the point where there will be no MPGs or MPBs.

That name for starters :celestial5: I also gave a couple of her songs a listen after I noticed some hype around her and I was unimpressed.

 

She gives Winner of The Voice teas :gaycat5:

I like some the Chappell songs....wtf does she know about MPGs?!

 

Jokes aside, I do actually like some of her songs.....she's kinda serving college theatre project w/ potential though. It's not quite there yet, but she can write a good song so we'll keep an eye out.

Her name came to mind immediately. But she doesn’t seem to be aiming for the mainstream anyway.

I think she’s a little too intentionally cringe/corny for the GP. She’s for the theater kids and baby gays.

I like her and bought the album on release week. I’d much rather listen to her pure pop sound as opposed to more RnB inflected artists like Tate McRae.

Her name is too hard to remember. The double pp and ll. Strange name. 
She needs to be more basic. Her music has too much personality and the GP loves basic. 
She's a lesbian. The GP is very homophobic and is better to hide it at first. 
Music too pop in a disco-r&B enviroment. :giraffe:

It takes some time to be MPG, I discovered Billie eilish in 2017 and was asking myself the same question and look at her now. Your girl might be future star.

shes too queer aesthetic coded. The gp likes watered down aesthetics like olivia

She’s too corny to be a MPG. Everything feels too theatre kid.

taylor swift is a mary jane, in that she plays it very straight and safe, which is attractive to families and young girls. it's easy to pretend to see themselves in taylor. parents do not worry about explaining a title like "my kink is karma". chappell has songs about being gay and her wardrobe is very fun in the way that would intimidate taylor's audience.  chappell will not be swift but she is doing great, though.

There are no new MPG's because the idea of a MPG has been replaced by influencers and content creators
