fromily Posted June 15 Posted June 15 this specific series of tweets is SO funny like girl keep that hammer and sickle OUT of your username until you can produce a series of hit tweets on the social function of art Spoiler but tbh this whole "expert knowledge/criticism actually doesn't exist and/or is inferior to non-expert opinion" attitude is so widespread online it's genuinely alarming :/ 1 1
Cloröx Posted June 15 Posted June 15 People give Charli too much credit when in reality it was Sophie who shaped and curated her sound

And yeah I find it amusing an alleged anticapitalist looks to the market to validate art. 3

SOPHIE's impact wouldn't have been the same without Charli. Facts.
Kummercell Posted June 15 Posted June 15 I think there's a big misconception about popularity tbh. Charli IS a popular artist. Even if she doesn't score #1s she's still more popular than 99% of all musicians that have ever existed. The existence of megastars like Taylor/Bey has warped our understanding of popularity 4

GentleEarthquake Posted June 15 Posted June 15 Popular artists take inspiration from lesser known artists all the time. My flop fave literally inspired Billie Eilish to begin her career
Colmillo Posted June 15 Posted June 15 Yes, mainstream artists get inspired by underground/lesser known artists all the time because they're the ones actually innovating and taking risks, the GP will probably say they don't have any impact because they haven't heard of them and attribute that innovation to the mainstream artists, but at the end of the day they're just the public, they don't have any involvement in the creative process so they don't know all of the inspiration that happens behind the scenes 1
