Because it's unfair to judge an artist with 3 albums worth of songs vs an artist with just one. If someone is a fan of either of them, it's best to look at both as legitimate artists diverging into different roads of pop music. In the current music business environment Tate is a stronger songwriter than Addison hands down, which becomes more evident when you look at the album tracks vs the singles. This could be because of the more diaristic confessional era of pop songwriting we live in, which is probably why Tate appeals more to the public and is more popular in general. But I don't think Addison is intending to be confessional in that same way. Addison has her own merits. She understands the references she is utilizing and uses them well. It doesn't feel like she is disingenuous, just a real student of whatever she is interested in. It seems that Tate crafts her songs and imagery based on who she is at that given moment not necessarily a costume or aesthetic being purposefully put on or chosen. It's similar to artists like Taylor (for a majority of her career), Olivia and Ariana. Apart from Taylor switching genres, they all usually craft the imagery of the era after the album is made. They aren't intending to do a 180. Addison seems more conceptual and purposeful- as if playing a role. This is more similar to Gaga and Madonna. It's quite obvious why the gays like one style more than the other.

Okay. I actually respect that.

Dua Lipa did an ad for Team USA as well and she doesn't even live in North America. Was that a problem too?

Out of those artists, Twigs is the only one that could be up to par with Tate's technique. Twitter gays are funny because they want dancing in pop but then they have general disrespect to dancers and backup dancers while insulting an artist they don't like. Tate has been well known in the competitive dance community for most of her preteen/teen/adult life, similar to Maddie Ziegler. That's why so many dance girls/guys respect her because she has put in the work and years of practice that they have. A random gay man who has never taken a technique or ballet class has absolutely no understanding of that community other than maybe watching it through Dance Moms. They are not the people she appeals to which obviously doesn't matter considering her success despite their ranting.

There is a lot that goes into it but Twitter gays love Addison partly because she emulates Britney from like 03-08. I think it's odd to mimic the time where she was at her messiest and was obviously going through hell but they love it. Tate is more so Britney from 99-02 and they can't relate to that polish. Tate also has fans around her own age that are women and younger girls. Look at her crowds at festivals compared to Addison. She's not making music to directly appeal to 30yo+ gay men in Bushwick. You can decide which has more longevity but Addison does not have a dedicated base.

Yes. The sound quality is like night and day for me. There were whole albums I didn't really care for that I ended up actually enjoying listening with wires again. There's a reason why the people who actually make music dont care for bluetooth. It's the epitome of convenience over quality.

they are going to need a first album before they can get to the second...

I'm tired of all hate honestly. 10 years or so ago, when communities were more contained, things could pass as jokes and sarcasm on social media. Now it just comes across as "LOOK AT ME! I can be angry/funny too! See!" as a ploy to get a hit tweet or to publicly place themselves on a side they believe is morally correct. The fact that people will actually be upset about a joke that Katy Perry killed a nun or stole an elderly veterans house is honestly insane and shows how things have changed. That nun story was originally talked about with a wink and laugh, not some weird judgement rooted in a perceived morality. It's odd to critique hate for not being genuine, but it's more so the act rather than the feeling. This goes for all female popstars too, with one obvious exception (NM) for reasons she unfortunately publicly accepted and welcomed.

who the f*ck ever said I was a Christina Aguilera fan??? The worm in your brain?

how much did GAGAISTHEBESTYA pay you for this?

This is obviously fake but who else does Capitol have? Doechii is a stand out but they don't have any other big popstars right?

its actually quite impressive she is doing this with the amount of hate I see against her every single day.

Ironically I do like Gaga way more than Katy artistically. I have seen Gaga live 4 times and Katy only once. However, I cant stand the ugly little monsters so whenever I get the chance to wack them- I will! Gaga is just collateral damage unfortunately. They love to be the morality police as if they are coming from some odd place of arrogance and superiority. They are the complete opposite of everything Gaga preaches yet they can't understand that. Maybe they are just dumb. Or it's from all the bullying when they were younger but my god, it's almost been 20 years.

Are you a teenager or something? Because you are constantly just posting about Katy. I don't understand how you could be actively employed anywhere. Probably better off for all of us though because you are a weirdo. Can't imagine ever interacting with someone like you in real life. Yuck.

So she lied when she specifically said she didn't have anymore songs or plans for an album?
