According to NPR, Beyonce is better than all these ladies.

I don't care desu.

Noone gives a fuck about your opinion. Welcome to the internet.

I do not disagree with your statement but the list is made to attract the younger girls to go and listen to such artists.

who are bottom left and bottom right?

>>74158319
Who cares, the only thing NPR are good for are their Tiny Desk Concerts

because they're paid too. That's how marketing works. You sign an artist. Then you pay people to talk about that artist so more people listen so you make more money

>>74158439
Holy shit, how?

>>74158439
Bottom right is Fiona Apple.

According to /mu/, Kanye West is better than Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Brahms and Mendelssohn.

>>74158439
left is Chelsea Wolfe
>>74158319
Bush > Newsom > Vincent > Wolfe > Bjork >>> Apple

Apple doesn't belong there desu.

>>74158625
>Chelsea Wolfe

>>74158574
But he is better than them. Classical music is for old faggots

>>74158625
>>74158694

>>74158319
>>74158625
Kate>Joanna>Bork>PJ>Annie>Fiona

That said, they're all amazing artists.

>Fiona last

>>74158789
they're all great, she's just the least great
which of the other 5 do you think has the worse discography?

>>74158789
The Idler Wheel is her only great album. The others are okay to good

>>74158319
How does the number of people involved in an album somehow lessen its quality?

>>74158815
Not that guy but I don't think it's unreasonable to put Fiona over St. Vincent

Did at any moment NPR mention Moe Tucker? If not then poptimism truly is the worst thing to happen to music in years.

>>74158946
It doesn't but it shows that the "artist" is not an "artist", only a manufactured product by the record company.

>>74159020
Beyonce is a singer, just like Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Elvis, etc. etc. were.

And it doesn't matter if the album is "produced" or "manufactured" if it's good, because all that matters is if it's good.

Are you going to argue that Thriller or Off the Wall are bad albums? Because despite being heavily manufactured albums, they're undeniable classics.

>>74158351
what if the intentions behind it are sinister and your not caring is contributing to the suicide of all non-consumerist western culture? hypocritically speaking

>>74159119
Yeah maybe. Sinatra and Elvis are overrated imo. Michael Jackson is the exception, Thriller is miles and miles better than Lemonade.

Switch Bork with Joanna and your opinion is fact.

>>74159221
Thriller might be miles and miles better than Lemonade, but that doesn't mean that Lemonade is bad. It may not be to your liking, and that's fine, but that doesn't make it fake music, or Beyonce a fake artist. She's an incredible vocalist leveraging what she has to make music that a lot of consumers and critics find to be engaging.
