Friendly reminder that Grimes will never release a bad album. She will use any means necessary to make it as good as possible.

>it's annoying i know haha, but my albums take a long time to create because i don't buy songs/ hire producers/ writers or engineers. the majority of artists do, so they are able to release music faster. unfortunately it takes me longer because if there's a style i need to learn i just have to figure it out by trial and error, or if im stuck on a lyric or beat sometimes i have to start again. i think it leads to more original product though, and hopefully the fans are happier in the long run. that said, i am making a lot of music right now, but i also want to have more of a sonic theme to this album so i'm using less of the stuff i'm recording. in any case, ill try to be as swift as possible!"

Just one time it would be cool to have a nice grimes thread without any shit posts. Lofty goals I know.

Lol hi James Rinaldi.
How's that restraining order working out for you?

>>73492911
Okay, I know Claire personally. I don't feel comfortable sharing this as she may find out who leaked this without her permission, but I know I'm amongst trustworthy friends here who will protect me and have my back. A few years back, me and Claire, along with a small group of 6 other people did a volunteer event in which we presented a seminar/workshop for foster kids. The purpose of the event was for young adults who were separated from their parents to asks questions and receive advice from our panel about what to do after high school. Those in the panel were staying in the same hotel and thought car pooling would better since it meant less rental cars and pollution, etc. I was in the group that Claire was in. We would take turns throughout the day switching up the driver. I remember Claire was asked to drive and pick us up some food we had ordered. I decided to go with her to help her out. This is where I got to meet the real Claire Boucher. While driving towards a 4 lane intersection I noticed the stoplight coming up had gone from green to yellow. The law states that a yellow light states for caution and that all drives should begin slowly their vehicles down, prepping for stoppage. Claire however did not. She did the exact opposite. She speed right through the yellow. I was flabbergasted. I couldn't believe what I just saw. Immediately I said to Claire, "do you realize what you just did". She simply replied "yeah, we almost got stuck in some nasty traffic". I couldn't believe that Claire had the audacity to say something like that so nonchalantly. I've never seen someone break the law before and show not even the slightest bit of sympathy or remorse. After that day, I never saw Claire the same nor did I want to be near her ever again.

Claire is beautiful. My favorite MV is Realiti.

She's borderline Ana without being Ana.

High energy MV

thread:hide
it's that easy

>>73492954
Truth. It's easy to write her off because she's got mass appeal and leans towards pop.

Doesn't change that her lyrics and compositions are complex and reach deep into the collective soul for inspiration. I can't think of any other modern pop artists quoting Shakespeare and expanding on ideas he brought up. I don't know any other modern artists down to write an entire album about their love for Dune or willing to deprive themselves of sleep and food for weeks at a time just to get into the right mindset to write and record something both disturbing and beautiful.

It's easy to hate what you don't know, but hard to be an artist in it for the art.

This is why no one takes grimesfags seriously

>>73495433
She didn't do that. Manic fans did that. Mistaking the artist for the following isn't really fair to the artist. Once you make your work and let it out into the world, it's no longer up to you how people experience or enjoy that work.

Ok, so I've listened to a few of this chicks songs on YouTube and I don't understand why she's so popular on here. Someone please explain why?

Her music is extremely mediocre in my opinion. It sounds like some Japanese tribute by a westerner who doesn't really understand anything, but more just likes the "image". Furthermore, the songs were all just "beats" that sounded amateur as fuck, drowned in effects pedals, with some chick half squealing/half singing over the top.
I mean anyone could make this, and many people DO make this. Go on Soundcloud, Bandcamp and you can hear people that do it better. And many of them have been doing it longer! I do not understand.

Is it the image that sells it for you people? Her quirky persona? The unwashed look? What? I simply do not understand.

Also, I could go into more detail if you like, but this is just a relatively quick post to see what exactly am I missing?

i think most of you fucks just like this chick because you want to fuck her, and somewhere in your head it makes sense for you to be a fanboy or w.e

1) she makes pleasant, exciting, unique, dreamy, energetic, catchy, emotional songs
2) she's a one woman band: she does almost everything in her art. how many artists at her level of success do you know that do producing, singing, songwriting, sound engineering, playing multiple instruments, directing and editing music videos, drawing the cover art? i'm not even talking about some extra stuff like dancing, modeling, being a philanthropist.

>>73498387
So, you listened to a few seconds from her major singles and concluded it sucks? Dude, don't be an idiot. Her music is very diverse and it requires some patience. Listen to her whole discography and then we're talking. You just don't check few seconds of her music and pretend it sucks.

>extremely mediocre
Extremely? Mediocre is mediocre. I never heard of extreme mediocrity.

>Furthermore, the songs were all just "beats" that sounded amateur as fuck, drowned in effects pedals, with some chick half squealing/half singing over the top.
Ha ha ha ha! Nice try. Just beats you say? How the fuck did you miss those gorgeous basslines and synth melodies? Are you deaf? Case in point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9XKLqGqwLA

This tune is chock-full of melody. Even her haters admit it's a fine song.

>I mean anyone could make this, and many people DO make this. Go on Soundcloud, Bandcamp and you can hear people that do it better.
Then why nobody talks about these folks if it's that easy? Name even one similar song from Soundcloud or Bandcamp similar to her music. Go ahead.

>Is it the image that sells it for you people? Her quirky persona? The unwashed look? What? I simply do not understand.
You don't understand because you didn't really listen to her music. Or you're a pleb. Her image and quirky persona wouldn't guarantee such acclaim and interest. Read the damn reviews: http://www.metacritic.com/music/art-angels/grimes Do you think these people reviewed her image or her music?

that all has to do with the way you perceive her as a person, not her actual music.

someone who only listens to music for music's sake learns to separate art from artist. knowledge of her involvement with the music has no bearing on the way that the music sounds.

Are you actually retarded? What kind of answer did you expect then?

>>73498543
yes but those are all buzzword soundbites to make her seem "talented". Are you her PR manager or something?
Her music videos aren't exactly great, they look like school projects
A few of the songs I listened to sounded like spare bits of better songs thrown together and released as a new song

What I'm trying to say is: She had a few songs I could MAYBE nod my head to, but for the most part it was all uninspired squealing over some stretched sample of someone squealing with a shit dance beat and more effects to camouflage the mediocrity of it all

K, how do you get her out of your head after she's in there? I've tried listening to my other fav artists... ain't working.

Do you think they give a fuck for researching this chick squeals? She looks to me like an artist having a severe crisis who cannot decide whether to appeal to a wider audience or continue being mediocre for the devoted fans.
I listened to enough to understand that her latest work is more accessible than her previous. And it's still shit, hence my need of an explanation. Am I wrong?

>I never heard of extreme mediocrity.
Then you are fucking moronic as well as tone deaf. Congrats!

>gorgeous basslines and synth melodies?
They sound ripped off, and the song Realiti sounds like every other pop song on the radio from 5 years ago. That being said, that song is one of her most accessible yet I'd say, and it's still mediocre. Thanks for proving my point though fanboy
>tune is chock-full of melody. Even her haters admit it's a fine song.
see above, you are just ignorant to other genres of music. how much edm do you listen to? not very much?

>Then why nobody talks about these folks if it's that easy?
Because they don't have marketing teams promoting their mediocre shit
Are you really asking this shit? Stop being fucking stupid

>You don't understand because you didn't really listen to her music.
I just said to you I listened to enough to know what she was going for.
You're a butthurt fanboy who can't bare someone criticising his obsessions mediocre music

> Her image and quirky persona wouldn't guarantee such acclaim and interest.
It guarantees a fan base of awkward internet virgins who obsess over Japanese culture despite not really understanding it
>Read the damn reviews
Reviews can be bought, reviews ARE bought
>Posts metacritic
Lmao jesus christ

>>73498740
>what exactly is it that she is doing?
i'm not the anon who asked that question. my point is that knowledge of her image and her public persona has a large bearing on your opinion of her, and you admitted that yourself in this post >>73498543

>>73498481
>I'm trying to see the hype.
Then listen to her music, dummy. LISTEN TO HER MUSIC, not just to a few snippets here and there. She has 4 albums and an EP: listen to them. After that you'll have the right to complain about her music.

>>73498742
>it was all uninspired squealing over some stretched sample of someone squealing with a shit dance beat
In other words, you are just too pleb to get into her stuff. She makes quality and catchy songs and her production is top notch.

>>73498526
Let's pretend the image sells it to the people. But what keeps the people interested? Hint: it's her music. She's a musician, not an actress. Her looks is secondary to her music.

>>73498606
That's fair enough. I am TRYING to see what the hype is about. So far, not so good.
>>73498624
>Le edgy "we don't care"
Yeah but she probably does care though. All artists to some extent care what people think of their work. Sure, they might be doing it solely for themselves, but it is still a piece of them at the end of the day.

Anyone who tells you otherwise is some fucking retard with the "i don't care if you like this thing i just spent like 5 percent of my life pouring my heart and soul into bro"

>>73498838
>Her looks is secondary to her music.
sure. but her looks/persona still play an enormous role in her popularity here

>>73498844
What do you usually listen to? Maybe synthpop is not on your favorite genres list. Don't blame her if that's the case.

>>73498849
Because it's becoming disruptive. She using jedi mind tricks or some shit? It's very persistent. I don't want to turn into one of them waifufags. Her music is fun, but thinking about her all the time is not.

You may be surprised, but not that much. I visit these threads for a long time. Look right now at the stats: 170 posts and barely 36 pics (many of them being memes). That's about an image every 5 posts. There's way more discussion that photo sharing. Fact.

Her look is important but her music even more. You can't see that because you're blinded by hate towards her.

t. Fanboys
Listen to me cunts, I listened to enough of her songs to see what she was/is going for. I don't need to listen to her discography.

I kind of likes some of her songs, they were okay. Fair play to her. She has a niche and a devoted fan base who dig her sound (read: dig her image for their tumbl blog) so, it's whatever.
You guys all love her squealing and quasi-japenese gimmicky imagery, paired with her ""quirky"" personality. I totally get it! Thats your taste

Just please stop making out as if this chick is extremely talented or in any way above mediocre, (with occasionally decent catchy almost pop songs) but at the end of the day: She just isn't that great, man.

Cheers.
I hope she continues to make music anyway though, she's alright on some songs, sometimes, I think. Yeah.

>>73498690
>that all has to do with the way you perceive her as a person, not her actual music.

how the fuck these
>producing, singing, songwriting, sound engineering, playing multiple instruments, directing and editing music videos

don't have to do with music? are you an idiot? this is what she actually does to create her art, not some personal opinions.

I don't care, like what you like, just stop making her out to be Jesus or whatever.
Her music is alright. quasi-Japenese aesthetic. Echo. Delay. We get it. You like synth.

But shes nothing beyond mediocre

>>73499006
I am me, I decide what is good or shit, since it is up to me alone

Where the world comes in my way - and it comes in my way everywhere - I consume it to quiet the hunger of my egoism. For me you are nothing but - my food, even as I too am fed upon and turned to use by you. We have only one relation to each other, that of usableness, of utility, of use. We owe each other nothing, for what I seem to owe you I owe at most to myself. If I show you a cheery air in order to cheer you likewise, then your cheeriness is of consequence to me, and my air serves my wish; to a thousand others, whom I do not aim to cheer, I do not show it.

Yes. You got it wrong: she's split between pop and experimental, between mainstream and underground.

>And it's still shit, hence my need of an explanation.
Why do you need an explanation if you already made up your mind? Do you seek validation? Why don't you just go back and listen to something you like, imbecile?

You must be really mad. Stay mad, asswipe.

I highly doubt you even turned on the radio in the last 5 years if you say such blatant lies.

EDM? LOL! Dude, this thing is called electronic music. I listen to everything from Autechre to Zero 7. Spare me of your bullshit; you don't know how much music I listened to in my life.

For example, I don't like Kanye or Death Grips or Bjork, so I don't go to their threads and don't hatepost there. Why is that? Because I'm not an autist like you and our life is too short to spend it on discussing things that we don't like.

So you're an expert are you? I don't care what meme bands 4chan told you that you should listen to either
Her more accessible music like the song 'Realiti' sounds like thousands of pop songs. You're just a pleb, don't blame me for pointing it out

>Because their music sucks, that's why.
what, so any artist who has won awards, has been given interviews and "decent" reviews doesn't suck? Are you mentally handicapped?

>Speaking from experience?
Yes, from my experience of people like you and many of the people who browse this website. They are virginal men who watch and wank to anime. They tell you this much themselves. Are you stupid?

>>73498959
No worries, i'm not the guy you're arguing with. But that person is very protective of her and her music. I would say if you've given it a shot that's great, I think she'd appreciate that but ultimately if you don't like it you don't like it. That's fine.

Nobody should feel obligated to like grimes. If you like her, great. If you don't, you don't. I'm not going to argue with anyone who has a varying opinion of her or her music. I'm happy to discuss either way.

No. (I'm a fan)

>>73499576
I think the ones who are super defensive of her are "in love" with her. Thus blinded to the reality of her audience and the greater music sphere.

I like her a lot but haven't the delusion of being "in love" with her because I know that's not true. She'd have to reciprocate for it to be so. And that's not likely to happen at all so I don't get mixed up in that thinking.

Plus the side benefit is that I can look at objective critiques of her music and not lose my shit. I think it's all good.

I hope she reads this thread/s (I think she does, to be honest)

I'm out of here. Cheers for the "discussion", if you can call it that. I won't be buying her album or supporting her in any way simply because her fans are just unbearable cunts.
All of you worship her, it's alarming to tell you the truth.
I kind of think she's alright, it's just a shame about the put on quirky bullshit persona (i could look past that), and some of the music is a bit shit at times, but yeah...

do you need a break from the internet?

I'd like to apologize for any anons who are trying to relay their displeasure with her work and or want to critique it on its merits. We SHOULD be able to discuss that.

These threads could stand to be less combative. I have tried to explain to the other (protective) anons that being so reactive does not help anyone convert over to grimes or give a shit about her work.

Just know, anons with alternative viewpoints, I am watching and I am hearing what you say and it's okay.

It's okay not to like grimes. I think if you give her a shot you might like her stuff. But that's just me. If you don't like her work, that's cool too. It's not going to be everyones cup of tea. I'm a metal head myself so hey, I try to listen to everything. All music, to me, is fuckin' rad!

>She'd probably respect my opinion more than yours mate
Yeah sure. It's ok to not like her music, but to come here and express your ignorance and hatred (just count how many insults you used ITT) and then play the victim's role, it's pathetic. Don't complain that a snake bit you if you annoyed it. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

>>73499902
Based grimesfriend. Thoughts on her first two albums? They always seem to get thrown by the wayside in favor of Visions and Art Angels (two albums I personally dislike), even though they're both incredible. What's your favorite artist? I wish most grimesfags were like you (a grimesFRIEND)

>>73499921

It's just words, fanboy faggot. Where we are going, we don't need words.

>>73499902
>It's okay not to like grimes.
Of course. But it's not ok to post trollish posts and whines that her music is shit, like that nitwit did. That's frankly pathetic. Hint: he never intended to have a decent discussion. Read again his posts.

Shut the fuck up, you fucking mongoloid crab.

You cannot call a negative opinion "shitposting" just because you disagree with it. Artist discussion can be negative or positive. You clearly don't have any understanding of the rules so you should really just leave the board and also this world while you're at it.

you are pathetic.

kek. this thread has been quite a ride. i dont even care about grimes but this has been very entertaining

>>73499935
My favorite album is Halfaxa > Darkblooms > Unreleased > Art Angels > Geidi > Visions... something like that.

I don't like visions either lol. Art Angels was a little more out of touch with her older style, you're right. I don't prefer them, but I still enjoy her entire discography though.

Also, thanks. I think the ones who are reactive are in love with her so that blinds them and binds them to play the white knight role. I know she's not in these threads and likely doesn't give a shit what we think good or bad. Not that she's above our opinions, but she's a busy girl.

Why insult her fans?

Being in "love" with an artist is a common thing among any fan base.

>>73499954
Again, Anon. I think they do this on purpose to piss you (and other waifus) off. It's just too easy for them to come in and say some shit and you to go crazy.

The moment you can calm yourself and these things they say no longer effect you (they don't effect claire at all -- she's not in this thread, she's not reading this bullshit. So don't worry about what she thinks).

And agian, Anon. I must remind you, she's a strong girl. She is more than capable of defending herself. Give her some credit. She doesn't need any white knights. I think this behavior sullies everyones opinion of hers (ie. they start to think her entire fan base are lunatics -- so they'll distance themselves from her which is unfair).

>>73499984
Pretty much sums up what I was thinking. Shame.

>>73500093
favorite artist?

Again, Anons. I encourage you to share your thoughts on her work, good or bad. Don't feel obligated to post simply praise. I truly believe even if she saw these threads and you didn't like her work that negative comments may in fact encourage her to try harder (she's trying very hard, mind you). We should always tend towards self improvement.

However, i'd politely ask you all to mind your shitposting and keep your comments relevant to her work (good or bad). Stuff regarding false press or pure bullshit designed to elicit raging monkeys should be minimal. Please and thanks.

Not a mod. Not going to ban, just asking politely. Thanks again. Hope you guys enjoy her work.

>>73500238
Hard to say... Soundgarden was my favorite band of all time. I was truly lost for words the day I found out he took his own life. Sucks so bad man. He was such an awesome dude.

I listen to everything, Anon. Slayer, Sepultura, Metallica, Baby Metal, Celine Dion, I don't care... James Brown, Bob Marley, Grimes, Taylor Swift, The Weekn'd, Drake, Outkast, DMC, DMX, Fuck man, i'll even listen to Justin Bieber if it's what's poppin'. But don't forget them classics. Vanilla Ice, Milli Vanilli... I could go all day.

I like it all, Anon. How about you?

grimes threads are the most exciting on /mu/.

>>73498591
>not her music
People who like her music overwhelmingly like HER personally because her music is a direct reflection of her as a person (since she constructs it all independently.) Hence why she tends to incite such strong emotional reactions from people.

>>73499770
that's a very reasonable opinion. there were many people here before who said they couldn't understand all the hype about her but they asked nicely and they got decent answers.

it's very important the tone of your message: if it's negative or hateful the results will be quite unpleasant. offer respect if you want respect.

>>73500307
Yeah, RIP.

I'm really (really) into experimental music, so shit like drone and noise really tickle the right musical nerves for me, although I do enjoy "lighter" stuff as well, hence why I like Halfaxa so much (given that it's a great fusion of the two). I've been led to believe that I am the "Avant-pleb" that the more extreme fans bring up. Although I like most of the artists you wrote, (especially Slayer) I don't enjoy a lot of them, although I understand that people have different tastes. Favorite bands are probably Boris, Sleep, Keiji Haino, and Tetsuo, if I had to do a list.

>>73500312
Wouldn't that be some shit, Anon? I think that'd be rad as fuck but I truly, deep down, don't believe it. I think she's busy as fuck and she keeps herself occupied with her work and/or hanging with friends and family.

I don't think she's immune to checking this shit out though, or going online and seeing what people think when she needs to know what people think. But I think if it's negative shit, it effects her ability to do her job so I think she keeps this shit to a minimum.

Think about it, if someone comes out of left field and calls her a cunt maybe she's having a bad day and then she starts to wonder if she IS a cunt? You know? Or rather there could be 100 positive comments, it just takes one to fuck with her mind. So again, I doubt it Anon.

It'd be cool as fuck for her to be in here with us though.

>>73500319
Probably because she tends to have a polarizing effect on people. Some love her, some want to be her, others hate her fans because of all the waifu shit. Not many artists can pull that one off.

But yeah, that's why i'm in these. They're fun, and i'm bored as fuck.

>>73498690
>that all has to do with the way you perceive her as a person

>>73500362
Grimes is an extremely rare case where what you hear is completely representative of her as a person - for better or worse.

>>73498740
see
>>73500443

>>73500387
Yeah it's cool to listen to experimental stuff. See where music is morphing. I love it too man. That's part of why I think I became so quickly attached to Grimes. Her stuff was really unlike what I was hearing before. And it wasn't just some sort of screechy bullshit like I tend to hear sometimes. But it had great melody, great bass lines, good hooks. She's wicked sma't it seems.

>>73500014
Hey retard, this crap you posted >>73498240 (that was the post that initiated my reply here >>73498364 ) has nothing to do with music. GTFO, you shitposting maniac.

The funny thing is that blew up in their face e.g. >>73499746

They wanted to troll her fans, but they were trolled even harder. That's the beauty of /grimes/: trolls being meta trolled.

>>73498787
>I listened to enough to understand
Then why are you posting in this thread about needing help to understand what the appeal.is in her music?

Again - which of her songs/albums have you specifically listened to? Because it sounds like you haven't listened to very much desu.

Do something about that. I could recommend you some good tunes if you're interested.

Gentleman and ladies, can we clean up the comments a bit? I know we're all quick to get heated. But I think we can keep name calling shit to the playground maybe?

I mean if you guys think the other hasn't got the right opinion, maybe explain yourselves. Calling each other retarded or 'wrong' or a 'fuckwit' isn't helping anything in this thread.

Just asking. Please and thanks guys.

>>73500561
Yeah but I don't think that's helping anything. Sure as shit ain't helping Grimes. She's just trying to do her thing and get her music out there. If people like it, cool, if not well that's cool too. Pissing off trolls is going to turn them off trying out her music. I mean the shits free online so that's no loss but if her fans are being crazy then it's going to put a bad taste in everyones mouth who's even THINKING of listening to her music (trolls included -- you KNOW they're curious).

>>73500609

So you admit then you wanted to troll intentionally.

>>73500152
>>73499984
Huh? Did you even read the post of the one who started all this mess? Here it is >>73498387
That dude is baffled that her fans like Grimes. His whole attitude could be expressed as "stop liking her music" and "why do you like her music, damn it".

>>73498787
>They sound ripped off
From where, exactly? And what would be wrong with that if true?

>>73500633
No, that's not me. I'm just marveling at how easily trolled Grimes' fans are

>>73500642
Right, and that's his/her opinion. They're allowed to have an opinion, Anon. We don't have to agree with it. But they're free to post it.

>>73500642
>his whole attitude could be expressed as "Stop liking her music"
more like "why do you like her music, I personally don't (and will give my reasons as to why) , is there anything I'm missing"

>>73498787
>Realiti sounds like every other pop song on the radio from 5 years ago.
Which songs, specifically? "Every other song" isn't a song desu. It's a gross generalization which indicates you don't actually know what you're talking about (regardless of whether you actually do or not.)

>>73498787
>you are just ignorant to other genres of music.
Which other specific genres of music?

>>73500631
>Pissing off trolls is going to turn them off trying out her music.
You're caring too much about the "poor" trolls. They didn't even want to listen to her music. They had all the chances to try it. There's Youtube, there are streaming services, itunes, free downloads. Nothing stopped them to try her music. If they will keep refusing to try her music nothing of value will be lost.

>Sure as shit ain't helping Grimes.
It doesn't matter. This thread is about her but she's not involved in it.

>>73500652

What's to marvel about? When someone attacks her fans and they defend themselves and her music, it just means they enjoy the music she's made.

It's crude to poke people who want nothing more to post in peace because the troll felt the urge to ruin.

If they're that thin skinned they need to fuck right the fuck back to whatever shithole they crawled out of. I'm pretty sure she could give a crap about the usual few shitposters who come in here on a regular basis.

>>73500714
I'd rather these threads be about converting trolls to grimesfags than being exclusionary and treating grimes like it's some elite fanclub. I hate that sort of shit because it devolves into 'one true scottsman' type fallacies. Ie. who's the biggest grimesfag of them all.

Remember folks, there are no grimes points, your conduct here cannot be used to influence grimes, or gain favor from her. So your opinions are all valuable, good or bad (to me).

>>73498787
>Because they don't have marketing teams promoting their mediocre shit
Oh, but they do anon...

Also, who is this "they"? Who are these other artists you are failing to reference in order to complete your point?

>>73500752

But unless you're Grimes herself, it isn't your call to decide that for everyone.

>>73500752
Yeah but here's the thing. They're in here because they're curious. They can shit post all they like, but you know, deep down, they care and they want to like her stuff. That's WHY they're here.

Being a dick doesn't do anything other than lose potentially brand new fans of hers. And i'd rather someone come in here trying to troll and accidentally become a grimes fan so I can see them share their first reactions to falling in love with her music.

>>73500686
Really? Read other posts of him.

>>73498481
>SOMEONE TELL ME WHY THIS MEDIOCRE SINGER ISN'T DIABOLICALLY SHIT?

>i think most of you fucks just like this chick because you want to fuck her, and somewhere in your head it makes sense for you to be a fanboy or w.e

How the fuck someone could take seriously this fuckwit? Don't you see how he treated her fans? He pissed on their taste, he pissed on the fact they genuinely like her music, he said her fans like her because they want sexual relationships with her. Disgusting.

>>73500804
Let it go anon. His opinion is his to have.

>>73500849
I don't think he has to listen to them all. I think, based on what i'm reading, he's very intent on causing a ruckus partly to offend but probably because they didn't find the songs of hers they liked.

Attract bees with Honey, Anon. Putting out piss and vinegar will only strengthen their anger.

>>73500825
>fueled by 41 dedicated shitposters
>>73500804
the first quote fits the example I gave, he's asking why he should like her
The second one is a random (and funny imo) guess as to why people like her when he has so many problems with her
The third one is just associating the fact that grimes fans love her despite all the thing that he doesn't like, which he even ends with an admission of subjectivity

>could anyone take seriously this fuckwit
think harder before you type, anon

>>73500845

I suppose. I'm not the hothead (this time), but I understand people defending her and her music comes from genuine appreciation of her work and her.

Maybe you're another artist without a fan base like Grimes on /mu/ so you couldn't understand why.

All in all, that troll got what he deserved. He knew her fans are savage and he tried to mess with them. The troll bomb exploded in his face. He wasn't honest with his intentions and he rejected any argument every single time. He didn't want to be a decent discussion partner, he wanted to piss off her fans. Like all trolls before, the fucker threw a tantrum >>73499746 and left in disgrace.

Exactly. She's in charge of everything in her music, even the music videos and cover art.

WORD

Even if these threads are entirely made of shitposts ("It's shit posts, all the way down!") I'm still having fun in them. And you guys/gals should all feel free to express your opinion.

I like reading contrasting opinions. And again, there are no grimes points to be had in these threads. There are no goody bags either (sorry, there's no budget).
