he was an artist, not a musician

He was a pop star! and that's ok, because he took his weirdest influences and made them accessible so that people might come across his work one day and think
>wow this is really weird
next minute they're onto Brian Eno and Robert Fripp's stuff and you can open up a fucking world of experimental and weird stuff from there.

Pop **Artist** in the truest sense

pop isn't necessarily a bad thing. the fact that he could make music that worked so well as pop and was still experimental was his greatest strength
