David Bowie was not a pop star.
Seriously, stop calling him that. It's offensive. He's one of the most progressive and experimental musicians of modern times.

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
