>>48094005
julia holter definitely used her looks as a way of marketing her music.
>>48093828
Every female classical musician, except maybe opera sopranos
epic live show
>>48094049
explain
>>48094049
as does every other attractive musician, female or male
>>48093828
Joan Baez.
Marnie Stern.
Gregory and the Hawk, maybe.
Fiona Apple is a little hit or miss for me but she's unique.
Bjork. I'm not sure if she counts because of that one music video that's literally heavily edited video of her sex life and the weird jewelry
Gwen Stefani before everything after hollaback girl.
the lead singer of mum
inara george

I love Laetitia Sadier in a total non sexual way, I think she's such a great artist
OP here, hard mode: electronic based musicians, not folk/guitar stuff pls
>>48094512
I like stereolab, I'll check the other 2 out
would anyone have ever listened to francoise hardy if they hadn't seen a picture of her first?
>>48093882
BANKS
Jhene Aiko
>>48093828
Yuna
>>48094585
pauline oliveros
i love all of those artists but they are all very different so i dunno if you'll like them
>>48093828
it's often not their decision though. just saying
often it's not even the marketing's decision, it's just stupid fans
>>48094604

>>48093828
Lavren Mayberry
Ain't even joking. She's like a chunk of sexual kryptonite.
>>48094164
>gigantic
>>48094680
I'm not saying she's bad (although her music doesn't really engage me), but she probably wouldn't be popular if people didn't think she was "sexy".
>>48093828
Lorde?
I dont think dancing like a weirdo on stage is a "sexual image/body" thing
>>48094585
Eliane Radigue, maja ratkje, Christina Kubisch
>>48094585
Bjork again.
Mum again.
I liked crystal castles II.
Beth Gibbons.

not true. her voice is beautiful. like, reaaaaally nice. Listen to her song "Higher" & then tell me what you think

>>48094671
>sustaining the life of said artists career
>the artist is thinking about quitting because of sexism
>inb4 she should get used to it
>>48094755
come on. shes not a bad singer but her image definitely is used as a way of marketing.
>>48094801
lol, I stand corrected.
>>48094816
well yeah. shes fucking hot. But you were implying that she wasn't good & that her image "made" her. Just look at Lorde. Shes BTFO & very very mainstream & popular. All that matters is that you have a great voice.
>>48094755
Great voice. Good instrumental. Probably not gonna come back to it because it doesn't really engage me.
>>48094795
yea but she's wearing a turtle neck, not even her neck is exposed
>>48094699
ill check her out next
>>48094795
personally I don't see it as "depend(ing) on their sexual image/body" but OK...
>>48093828
>>48094858
The guy you responded to just now wasn't me.
>you were implying that she wasn't good
Never implied that.
>that her image "made" her
There are many women who make good music and work hard, but it doesn't hurt that she attractive.
>Lorde
She's an outlier (I love her music and I think she's adorable).
>All that matters is that you have a great voice
100% not true. There a thousands upon thousands of singers who with great voices who will never be famous due to various circumstance.

Lorde
Cat Power before she got famous and started making mainstream music
she had crippling social anxiety and such good music
not that i'm not glad she got over anxiety, i'm just saying she couldn't even handle being in a spotlight at all, concerts were breaking her, she couldn't even play on stage
i can't even find the video because she got so famous since that there's a ton of live videos on youtube now
>>48094618
forgettable, maybe I should listen to more, but meh
>>48094662
listened to ikonika and now laurel, im enjoying them so far
>>48095213
she's good looking, it's another thing that she doesn't wear make-up and has that haircut, her mouth is also rather big for some people but other than that she's perfect
>>48095441
>haircut
i like the haircut, tbh. i think it works for her

Gonna get shit for this, but Lauren Mayberry doesn't really play up the sex appeal either. She's cute as fuck, but she dresses like an old maid about 80% of the time.
>>48095486

I think tune yards lead singer could be one. I think she is attractive but she doesn't make beauty her get up.
>>48095798
she's ugly as fuck, alright music though
>>48095798
made me think of karin from The Knife

P-pls give it a chance.
>>48095488
Totally agree with this about Lauren Mayberry. She's not "sexing it up." She's just being who she is. She can't help it if she's cute. And those fucking shorts. God. Where does she find them? Goodwill?
>>48095900
I regret the fact that I did.
>>48096002
:^(
>>48095978
hey, whats wrong with goodwill?
>>48096152
But shit, it was 99 cents!
>>48096165
Bag it!
>>48096152
Come from a big family? You're used to hand me downs?
>>48096165
lol how do you know how much lauren spent on her clothes?!?!
>>48096216
yes and yes. Never actually shopped at a goodwill store, but I mean surely theres a slight off chance that you'd be able to find something good if you're lucky.
>>48095846
I hope you're joking, because she's the complete epitome of selling sex
>>48096240
Oh yeah. I was just being a dick. Great place to buy silverware, kitchenware, cookware.... Stuff like that. Great for work pants, too.
>>48096255
But her first few albums are GOAT
>>48096531
I don't necessarily agree, but she did depend on her sexual image/body completely to get people to listen to her music though and always has
>>48095337
She used to be a qt

>>48095441
>she doesn't wear make-up
This is what males actually believe.
>>48098355
other than the eyeliner? she clearly doesn't most of the time
>>48098474
Aside from her omnipresent mascara and eyeliner?
google some photos of her. She's wearing foundation in nearly all of them, and lipstick in a good chunk. A bit less when she performs live, obviously.
I'm always astounded that so many men don't know what makeup looks like.
>>48095441
>it's another thing that she doesn't wear make-up
are you fucking serious? i don't think she's EVER appeared in any photo or video, or live, or anything without make up caked on. are you blind?
>>48098775
I know make up when I see it. Most of the time she only wears it around her eyes. The times she's wore lipstick or foundation are rare.

>>48094858
imo for female artists in the r&b/hip-hop scene, their looks are part of their image and are a very important part of their appeal, just like rappers image (their style/attitude is more important than looks) is extremely important in their appeal.

>pulling an argument out of a technicality
Yeah, her face is not on the album cover but that's not the end of the story, m8. You cannot deny that she takes extra good care of her looks in order to attract an audience full of horny males who are mesmerized by the cuteness of her stage presence. In fact, one could even go as far as to argue that if Lauren wasn't fetishized by so many of her fans, CHVRCHES would never have become famous on the merits of their music alone.
Basically, the less a female artist takes care of her looks, the more eligible she is to be mentioned ITT.
