How did she become such a well-known name in such a short time?

How did she become such a well-known name in such a short time? Did her parents have money or connections?

I like her music but it's obvious that she self-produces and is an amateur, so how did she get so much attention?

She plays music that falls within a genre popular with young adults.

She's profitable in her looks in the way of modeling.

Social media, including having her own Tumblr.

Feministic views and ideas.

Popular with social media = global popularity..

I asked you a simple question.
>>
>>61990926
I'm not him. You're posts are also not on topic and just help further derail threads, just like his.
>>
>>61991000
I don't derail threads, he derailed it when he talked about sexual attraction.
If he wasn't such a retarded waifufag, maybe he could actually contribute by responding to OP.
>>
>>61991056
He derails it and then you derail it further by responding with another off-topic post. If you really want to do some good, ignore shitposts instead of shitposting yourself with meta posts.
>>
>>61991362
>ignore shitposts
Then they will come up again the next thread.

I'm trying to do something more, by eliminating shitposts from /mu/. It's not an easy task, but Rome wasn't built in a day.

>>
>>61991390
I'm sure you mean well, but I honestly don't think your approach is the best way to go for "eliminating" shitposts on this board.

Well, it's not like I have any ideas, but sometimes doing nothing is better than egging them on
>>
>>61991390
That's the problem though, you're not eliminating them. They're still there. You're just adding to it. Nothing you have ever posted has ever deterred someone from shitposting.

You complain that people aren't actually contributing to a thread and yet neither have you. You're meta posts are not actually contributions and they're not actually helping.

by being a good artist? i dont know how did odd future, asap rocky, danny brown, churches, pc music, skrillex, all become over night successes? by doing new innovative shit with a cool overall aesthetic. kids and blogs liked them so much they spread word fast and thats how. retard.
>>
>>61990172
She used to fuck dudes to play shows back in Canada. Plus the lisp is fake and shes putting the whole "fairy queen" persona on. Back in the day she was the kind of girl whod try to get with music scene guys as much as she could. I dont know if she was actually attracted to them or if she was just trying to improve her own career, but I guess it got her this far.
>>
>>61992453
I wouldn't put chvrches in that category
>>
>>61990172
Oblivion and Genesis were great singles, she's relatively interesting and outspoken and she wears clothes pretty well. Literally the same way every "underground" artist goes from internet hype to mainstream success. I don't get how this isn't obvious.

she wishes she was as eccentricas miharu koshi

She didn't blow up overnight.

She had an album before Visions remember.

Visions became a cult hit

Art Angles reached wider audiences.

Pretty typical rise to fame.

it's sad that /pol/ dominates /mu/
every single thread about a female musician results in sexism
if you hate women so much why don't just assume your repressed homossexuality

She used to be fire on Twitter.

>>61992564
This is pretty much it, from what I've read. I can't remember if it was something on Pitchfork, but it was piece in which some people from the late 2000s Montreal scene were interviewed and they were like, yeah, she was always hanging around.

Björk and Kate Bush, but they made more so the arrangements, which is probably harder than playing it. Anybody can learn to play an instrument and learn to play it well, but not everyone can arrange and write music, you need to have vision for that. Anybody could have that vision, man or woman.

Even someone like Grimes makes albums by herself. She made it a point to not have any help from anybody (except for her collaborators like Janelle Monae), she played every instrument and produced it just so she could say she did it herself.

I'm pretty sure you couldn't do that anon, but oh well. A Helga Pataki looking, smelly ass, vegan bitch made entire albums by herself, and you're posting anonymously on 4chan. Yeah, no you're definitely the expert....

I saw a video of her talking once, it was awful. She reminds me of a girl who camped near us at a music festival. Bright dyed hair, goes topless, doesn't shave, falls in love with smelly shits she meets while on acid and then whines about it.

I am almost certain you aren't the same person as The Unofficial Helper of /mu/, since he was a lot more subtle about shitposting and his trip password was revealed.
>>
>>61995828
Oh my god it's the same girl. I didn't recognize her because of her hair. Fuck. This was four years ago I think? She just played ukelele or some shit back then.

I'm not that guy. I was responding to you saying she was being "criticized" by highlighting all the sexist posts.

I don't know what you expect though, citing every thread that's ever involved a female musician? I understand he over exaggerated but that's an interesting bit of semantics you're getting riled up about.
>>
>>61997829
The reason I take issue with it is because there are lots of female musicians who don't get a bad rap at all here

Grouper is basically queen of /mu/ and with good reason, people don't say shit like that about her.

Even undeserving talentless hacks like Tegan and Sara have been positively memed to high heaven

Nobody is bothered by female musicians until they start acting like Lena Dunham or Jennifer Lawrence
>>
>>61997888
It's not only female musicians who get bad raps that get sexist comments though. Waifuposting in a thread not even intended for that could also be seen as sexist, and that happens very often.

You're right in that it isn't every thread but I think his general point rings true. Nothing happening in this thread could be called uncommon.

like 3-4 years? thats not really a short time.

waifuposting is literally no different from women going "omg channing tatum is so hot xDD"

only a cunt would be offended by it
