St. Vincent doesn't care if artists' dog dies or have heartbreak

[SoldierofLove]

 

"Me, as a fan, when I love something, it's like, no, I don't care what the artist was going through. I genuinely don't care if the artist was going through heartbreak or lost their dog or whatever. I just know that when I love a song, it's mine."

 

Hm first artist that comes to mind is Lorde. Did she come for her? 

 

What about you, ATRL? Do you feel more connected to a song when you understand what the artist was going through when they created the song?

This feels like Taylor shade… She's basically saying "I don't care about Taylor Swift"

[Mezik]

I feel this has nothing to do with anyone, at all, and she's simply saying "sure they were in a bad spot when they wrote X song, but I don't like it".

 

This is totally normal.

@Lorde they’re dissing

This is clearly Cardi shade. Annie wants CB2 and doesn't give a **** how many hoes Offset has slept with to delay her Sophomore release.

[Loca]

She is right about this one

Annie worked with Taylor and has always spoken positively about her. It seems like a reach to assume she's shading her out of nowhere, especially with such a specific reference to a dog. Also many artists write about heartbreak in their songs.

Miley shade?

sounds like to me someone else is obsessed with coming up with reasons to Trash Taylor, not annie.

 

and it's fair for someone not to care for biographical criticism.

Me, as a fan

She's not shading other artists. She's @ing the fans.

 

But every musician says something like this ~ the song becomes less and less theirs/what they wrote it about.

I can't believe it's almost 2025 and we're still taking her words hugely out of context to make her seem as cynical as possible
