Who's the better artist?
>>
>>63179028
I prefer Bowie, but Dylan is amazing too.
>>
>>63179028
Objectively: Dylan
What everyone will say; Bowie

Why? Because bowie jumped on their precious Kendricks dick and rode modern trends on blackstar then died so everyone is a huge fan now.
>>
>>63179066
Are you serious? Are you fucking serious? I hate Kendrick and Low is my favourite album of all time. To imply something like that is enough to almost make me completely lose faith in this place. Is everything just memes now?
>>
>>63179066
At least Bowie had more than just a crooning deep voice and an acoustic guitar.
>>
>>63179116
Maybe its time you went to your precious rddit and left us the fuck alone

Bowie is better because he changed and tried new things during his career

Every Bob Dylan album is the same acoustic guitar folk horse shit

I just listened to blonde on blonde a few days ago and it sucks fucking cock every song sounds the same I couldn't even tell when the songs changed
>>
>>63179717
Hahaha so fucking this
>>
>>63179717
Dylan is famous for dramatically changing his style. You have literally no idea what you're talking about.

Dylan could ether Bowie
>>
>>63179130
It's not like the most famous moment of Dylan's career is when he specifically used an electric guitar.
>>
>>63180137
Eh, I'm >>63180364
If this was still the sixties/mid 70s I'd agree with you but after a certain point Dylan stopped expanding his palette.
>>
>>63179028
I prefer Dylan but people are going to say Bowie
>>
>>63179028
Bob Dylan
David Bowie can't reach to the level of blonde on blonde or highway 61 revisited
>>
>>63179028
of the albums posted her; Dylan wins.

If you were forced to listen to both discographies in full: Bowie, because Dylan has twenty million albums and so you'd get tired.
>>
Dylan is the poet
Bowie is the artist
>>
>>63179044
would you say the same thing about Miles Davis vs Bowie?
>>63180470
Poets are artists, that's a stupid claim to make. What you mean is Dylan is the poet, Bowie's the musician.
>>
>>63180470
Dylan is an amazing instrumentalists and his pop song structure is fantastic.
>>
Dylan > Eno >>>>> Bowie
>>
>>63180481
No, I meant Dylan is the poet, Bowie is the artist
>>
>>63180545
Then explain what you consider the difference between the two.
>>
>>63180553
Dylan is a poet
Bowie is an artist
>>
Dylan. Never listened to Bowie, and when he died, seemed like a bit of a meme to start listening to him.
>>
>>63180565
Dylan is an artist
Bowie is an image
>>
>>63179130
>Bob Dylan
>deep voice
>backed only acoustic guitar in any year after 1965

You aren't even trying.

Bowie was a talented trendhopper. Dylan was a talented trailblazer. The answer is obvious.
>>

fucking stop

Fuck off

Stupid to even out Bowie on Dylan's level. Dylan literally changed the direction of music. Dylan is God. Maybe when he dies hipters will know how great he truly was
>>
>>63180701
Two albums in 50 years that contradict my obvious exaggeration. Nice.
>>
Without Dylan there'd be no bowie
>>
>>63180137
>Dylan is famous for dramatically changing his style. You have literally no idea what you're talking about.


no hes not you faggot im suare he changes his style but the end of the day it's still some sort of folk music

bowie went from folk rock to glam rock to soul to low and heroes in less than seven years

bod dylan sucks a pair of non white balls
>>
>>63180769
I'm >>63180380
>>63180364
They're two relatively un-discussed albums in his career, it seemed (and still does) that you didn't know about them.
>>
>>63180772
Without Little Richard there'd be no Dylan, does that make Lil' Richard the better of the two?
>>
>>63180773
because Bowie desperately hoped different trends to stay relevant.

After establishing himself as the hero for the anti rock people, he suddenly went electric, alienating his entire audience and completely pioneering rock music with ambition, creativity for song writing in melody structure and arrangement that no one had began to imagine for rock music. He predates the Velvet Underground and his achievements are at least on level. He went from a prodigious Woody Guthrie impersonator that eclipsed his ability by miles, to being peers with the Velvet Underground
>>
>>63180517
yup

>>63180565
>>63180545
>>63180470
a really epic troll
>>
i find Bowie's music and song writing way more interesting than Dylans

but Dylan has inspired so many
>>
>>63180905
>desperately
no
he hopped to trends that he found interesting, and he did so in a way that was inspiring to many future artists
he created brilliant music in one genre then moved on
>>
Dylan has two albums that still stand up. Historic pioneering aside, Bowie made more good music.

is it inaccurate in some way? (answer: no)
>>
>>63182660
this board has literally nothing to do with anime
/a/ does though
>>
>>63182681
the entire website is an anime imageboard you dumb nig. it was built from the ground up to be the english speaking equivalent of a japanese anime imageboard.
>>
>>63179028
Bowie doesn't even compare. Are you fucking serious?

Dylan never wrote a song, "Song for David Bowie".
>>
>>63182538
>anime
>>
>>63180905
if bowie jumped on trends he would be doing punk or disco during the late 70s but instead he came out with the berlin trilogy during that period you dumb ass

and velvet underground is another band that sucks a bag of unclipped dicks of course a faggot like you would .listen to a band where the lead singer cant even sing and he just talks through all his songs

lou reed should have been shot
>>
bowie is shit and a meme
>>
>>63182733
David was just patting Bob on the head for being a good boy.
>>

literally fuck off you cancerous piece of shit lol
>>
>>63179028

Dylan. I like Bowie a lot too.
>>
I prefer Doobert, but still appreciate Dylan.
>>
>>63182733
Just cause Dylan inspired Bowie does not mean he was better Bowie was also inspired by little Richard he also thought that album Lou reed did with Metallica was a masterpiece. it doesn't mean shit
