You can deny it all you want, but this guy was almost completely irrelevant before he died
You can deny it all you want but Blackstar was getting good reviews before his death
>>61983493
That isn't relevant.
epic trole threadddd XDDD
Can you stop making threads about him then?
>>61983555
You can deny it all you want, but nobody even gave a shit about Blackstar until he died
>>61983493
You can't be serious. He was huge throughout the 70s and 80s.
>>61983588
That isn't what is saying you mongoloid cunt. He is claiming the faggot faded into irrelevancy before his death and the only thing which made him relevant was his death.
I'm somewhat inclined to agree
>>61983600
Why isnt MC Ride a swim coach
>>61983619
maybe in 'popular culture' (read: shit), but in the music world he has always been THE icon.
>>61983619
Sure Blackstar wasn't as relevant before he died, but to me it seems that this post tries to undermine his achievements in some way and I find that to be quite unfair. The man was a legitimate musical genius.
>>61983619
Only because of ageism. Plenty of that here too. Worse than racism and sexism, you're denying people their humanity.
>>61983658
Because this was made in 2010
And Death Grips are a shitty meme
>>61983663
This as well.
>>61983493
even when he "wasn't relevant" he was still more relevant than you'll ever be OP
>>61983619
So much anger.
>>61983493
>Implying Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes weren't the best shows on BBC 1 last decade.
>>61983750
LoM was great but never watched AtA because what I read wasn't inviting. Is it worth it?
>>61983493
>>61983619
Who ever said he was relevant before his latest album released? Where did you get the impression that people are denying this? Pretty obvious and meaningless statement.
>>61983493
this.
He was only a style icon, everyone knew his music was absolutely forgettable
>>61983771
Series 1 is pretty good
Series 2 is kinda eh
Series 3 is remember life on mars? wasn't it great? here have a reference.
>>61983812
Just checked it on IMDb, no John Simm, think I'll skip it desu
Agreed. At least Lou Reed was at the peak of his career making fresh sounding music with Metallica, what the fuck has Bowie done since Let's Dance? Absolutely nothing.
>>61983600
meme school
>>61983974
Bait, but anyway
>Earthling
>Outside
>Heathen
>The Next Day
dude lolmao
>>61983586
The critics who acclaimed it gave a shit, you retard.
>>61983974
funny bait since bowie actually regarded lulu as a masterpiece for some strange reason
ot: bullshit. yeah he lost his mainstream relevance to a certain degree ( but he always remaind an icon) , but with his death and final album he regained mainstream relevance and went out like a legend
Blackstar was also critically acclaimed and comercially successful and relevant ( due to his meme music videos) before he died
>>61983555
This. Ever since the title track leaked there was interest, many people were looking forward to it and happy when it came out. It was a different style for him again and sounded exciting.
His later career did have more downs than ups, but people did care about Blackstar.
He was brought up nearly every day on /mu/ since I've been visiting.
>>61983493
Because he was in self imposed exile you turd.
>>61983586
you can deny it all you want but there were multiple blackstar threads the entire week after it leaked (the week before his death)
>>61983493
obviously. but his influence still permeated strongly with newer artists and beyond.
>>61983600
There are like three female artists in that entire chart. What a sausagefest
>>61983684
also jeff buckley being the swim coach is funnier
>>61987191
women are inherently less talented in the fields of arts as they generally lead easy lives with not much hardship like a lot of men do, and as we all know hardship is the greatest fuel for incredible art.
>>61987267
hmm. not true.
>>61987323
denying facts won't make them untrue
>he was only a super relevant rock star for 3 or 4 decades instead of 5
Wow, what a loser.
>>61983493
Who is this guy? I've started seeing him everywhere since he died. I don't know him or care about him. It's fucking annoying!
>>61988455
some shitty meme artist that /mu/ started liking recently, like death grips after fantano gave them a 10
like most artists on /mu/, its not actually good music, but liking him is a meme and I guess people find that funny
>>61983493
lol :)
>>61987267
cringe
