"
ofc true but as a wealthy artist with pretty much full creative autonomy, a billionaire partner, a healthy record of cultural appropriation, and a willingness to anthropomorphise climate change into a posterfronting anime character for cheap concept points, I think it's a bit facile to close the book there. I do think this site should have a rule whereby every criticism of a female artist for a misplaced concept should be accompanied by a revisionist review of any concept prog and/or metal album made by white men"
God you are such a star

"Okay this has to be a joke."
Well yes duh, but also the amount of total bollocks people have accepted from vintage rock bands under the guise of concept albums or similar without raising an eyebrow is a pretty healthy reflection at the kind of double standards robertsona referenced. Didn't imagine this would need unpacking

“Didn't imagine this would need unpacking” is spot on. How dare I infer that there might be a liiiiittle prejudice baked into a website frequented by, well, I dunno, what do you think the percentage of straight white males on here is? I’m one of them, and I don’t hate any of you guys, but pots getting SO defensive without really addressing anything I said, just calling it dumb, is pretty funny
|

I didnt call it dumb I called grimes dumb. And I'm not being defensive I'm just saying everything you said comes off as a cheap flex rather than anything insightful. I didnt find it worth seriously addressing such tired business.

Like I get it u went to college
|

are u saying it might be a bit try hard to argue about white straight male bias on a music site like Sputnik dot com?

I could probably stand to be a little less pretentious in my delivery for sure but this shit goes on completely unabated, someone has to say something like what I’m saying every once in a while

the point is if someone calls grimes dumb there doesn't have to be some sinister sexist subtext and always looking for the subtext whenever the object of criticism is a minority or a female is exhausting

I know structural thinking seems counterintuitive and you’re bound to feel like I’m attacking you but I’ve read a bajillion comments on this website and the spite almost always flows in one direction and not the other—especially as regards the putative intelligence or humility or overall personality of the artist outside the context of their music (which, again, I assert: who care)

I’ve performed this lonely vaudeville act many a time and literally every time my interlocutor says that. Oh well, you’re not a bad person or anything Grimes is pretty buckwild but this means you have to say azealia Banks is smart. Sorry it’s just logic
