outside of all Bowie and Beyonce memes I seriously challenge you to explain why you think the one is is so much better than another, because I think they're equally overrated

>both hyped concepts are based exclusively on celebrity status
>both albums are bland and have nothing unique sonically
>both try to have more than just a top40 appeal, but do it enough only to impress masses
>both albums are praised by /mu/'s biggest jokes (p4k, fantano)

and please lets stay out of meme that they don't make their own music, because it can't affect your musical experience

One is shitty mass marketed focus tested pop that will be forgotten in a year and the other is the experimental,at times amazing and overall solid swan song of perhaps one of the greatest artists of the last century, not only standing on it own as one of his top 5 albums but also turning his very death into a work of art but whatever keep on memeing like the faggot contrarian you are
>>
>>68602427
a poppy rip-off of Bish Bosch is not experimental

the fact that it's his last album doesn't make it any better

How so?
Like I said it stands on its own regardless.

>>68602492
just listen to Bish Bosch, there's nothing original in Bowie's album, it's just a lot more accessible:

>>68602527
>not liking beyonce makes you contrarian

yeah maybe if you hang out with 15 year old girls and blm protestors
>>
>>68602506
All I'm gonna say is no. Bowie is not bish bosh and how dare you just brush off Bowies last album I don't care if your b8ing fuck right off m8

Bowie made a album about dying and died.
Beyonce made a album about her husband cheating as is still with him.
>>
>>68602506
Calling Beyonce shit in serious music conversation is contrarian now? Wew lad, even if it is similar to something else its still experimental compared to most popular music.
Bottom line is you could like Lemonade more because musical taste is very subjective but general consensus and my opinion favor Blackstar for reasons already given.

as good as it gets

Lemonade is also experimental compared to lots of other popular albums, so what?

>reasons
so basically you like it just because it's a poppy rip-off of Bish Bosch made by celebrity? doesn't it mean that it's a mass marketed focus tested pop btw?

and once again, it's subjectively nice concept, but the fact that it's his swan song doens't make it any better

It's ripping off Cilmate of the Hunter, Bish Bosch is completely different you retarded wannabe-patrician.
>>
>>68603138
nope, it's definitely inspired more by Bish Bosch, but I can feel Cilmate of the Hunter inspiration as well
>>
I enjoyed listening to Blackstar more than I enjoyed listening to Lemonade, it's not that hard
>>
>>68603155
Bish Bosch is a pisstake on Walker reputation and the only thing they got in common are electonic drums that he lifted straight out of hiphop not BB. He admired Walker but Bish Bosch isn't even remotely musically similar. Try again.
>>
>>68602185

One is listenable and one is not, Blackstar being the former and Lemonade being the latter

I don't like either desu, both are overrated (but since Blackstar was so close to Bowie's death, it's kinda expected)
>>
>>68603396
it is similar, listen to it at least once
>>
>>68603396
Blackstar is pop version of Bish Bosch is exactly my point. You may not gear it because Bish Bosch is lot less accessible, but denying the fact they are pretty similar is just a delusion.
>>
>>68603420
>One is listenable and one is not, Blackstar being the former and Lemonade being the latter
so, uhm, it's just subjective again?
and what do you exactly mean by "listenable"?

I prefer lemonade over blackstar and I'm a huge bowie fan
but both are overrated. idk why you made this thread on /mu/ its half /pol/ and social outcast who will auto hate anything pop because "normies"

>It's just too avant-garde for you
I actually love Walker but saying BB is doing something radically different from Tilt or The Drift is just delusional. He's basically laughing at people like you that listen to avant-garde to feel like art connoiseurs when you can neither explain nor analyse the difference between Blackstar and BB. Bowie took inspiration as a crooner and thematically from Walker but the musical difference is astounding. Walker is all about focused mood pieces that explore cacophonous repetition. Blackstar are basically jazz-inflicted electronic jams that still adher to classic rock structures. But it's so easy to act smug and pretentious.Yikes.
>>
>>68603729
>saying BB is doing something radically different from Tilt or The Drift is just delusional
who was saying that?
all your descriptions of BB and Blackstar don't deny the fact that Blackstar is basically a more accessible BB in any way. But it's so easy to act delusional. Yikes.
>>
>>68603763
>more accessible BB
Because they're both old dudes trying to sound like opera singers or what?
>>
>>68603788
no, but because they sound similar in lots of ways, and have similar mood and aestetic

if lemonade is your aoty you need to listen to more music

if blackstar is your aoty you need to listen to more music

Walker telling fart jokes and dadaism worship is like Bowie coming to terms with dying?

Walker said in interviews it was basically a comedy album. Sure, it's twisted and dark but if you can't tell walker is flicking his middlefinger at the music press on BB, listen to it again. The 24 minute dwarf song? Bizarre, yes. Devastating? Not at all. Death hangs way more heavy over Climate and Tilt but it's not even close to Bowie's personal apocalypse.

Goddamn, just spit out what's the whole deal with Bowie ripping off Walker's Bish Bosch but not sounding like that album at all. I'm genuinely curious cause your explanation is weak as fuck so far, my man.

It's a meme because you don't articulate yourself you dip.
>>
>>68604098
because it SOUNDS like Bish Bosch, but more poppier, I've heard it at my first listen to Blackstar, then I started digging and found out that Bowie actually appreciated Walker a lot, so it seemed logical, then a couple of other people on /mu/ noticed it, but his death was so hyped no one even cared about it.
I don't know how you are don't hear obvious similarities in sound, maybe you're just so triggered by OP you deny to accept that, I just suggest you to stop shitposting and listen to these albums once again, they're both moody artsy jazz-rock albums with old men's singing, where Bish Bosch has more satirican concept and Blackstar has more dramatic concept based on celebrities death, isn't that fucking obvious? At this point I seriously hope you're baiting.

I think you're missing a huge part of this...

Bowie's death as a celebrity is important because it's not just some happy advantage for him, it's a circumstance that threads into his album like any other concept.

Here, Major Tom has to deal with death not only as a man, but as a celebrity. He even admits to us in Blackstar that everyone is watching him, expecting something golden. The fact that he actually does give us something golden is a testament to his skill and experience as a musician

But he's never happy about the celeb status. I think that's been a conflict he's had with all of his performing life, which is why it hits so hard in Blackstar

Think about this: David Bowie can never die as David Jones, only as David Bowie. I think that's what Blackstar was trying to tell us

A lot of the musical devices in Blackstar will probably not be heard again, just like Bowie.

For example, we'll never see something musically like 'I Can't Give Everything Away' again. I mean, hell, it SOUNDS aged. Perhaps these songs are not the dying gasps of a musician, but the music he produces as well...
