Meme hair.
>>
>>60593295
she was always awful
>>
>>60593295
She isn't and she wasn't a sellout. She makes the music she wants to make. Nobody tell her what to do.
>>
>>60593335
you were always awful, not her. you're envious, that's all.
>>
>>60593342
This. Annie is god tier and always has been. I love her but even I can admit she's a bit pretentious.

is this an anti-annie thread?
>>
whenever she combs out that ridiculous hair then she'll be a sellout
>>
>>60593390
Yes, she's a bit pretentious, nobody can deny that. But she's also down to earth and actually charismatic.

>>60593434
No.
>>
>>60593516
I can deny that. Just because she's the best female guitarist in the history of rock music and she knows it, doesn't mean shes pretentious but rather self-aware
>>
>>60593606
By "a bit pretentious" I mean more the way she talks in interviews (many metaphors, references, neologisms, etc). Just a bit, tho.

Other than that, she's really great.
>>
>>60593606
Shes also one of the best song writers imo.
>>
>>60593675
so basicly she used some big words in an interview and you faggots think that equals to being pretentious?

now who's being pretentious kek
>>
>>60593807
Just calm down. I don't diss her, I'm a fan of her. Don't be such a fanboy.
>>
>>60593807
Nigga chill we all love Annie in here no need to be rude
>>
Only on /mu/ this can happen: a fanboy argues with me when I'm actually a fan of that artist. Ridiculous.

And she stars in commercials she wants to star in?
>>
>>60593295
Aren't all professional popular music musicians inherently sellouts?

Starring in commercials =/= sellout. It's acceptable these days for musicians in order to earn some well deserved money.
>>
>>60594040
Also I'd rather be more concerned about artistic sellout.
>>
>>60594080
>It's acceptable these days for musicians in order to earn some well deserved money.
So then it's impossible to sell out now?
Why was it ever possible to sell out?
Why are musicians that you like now deserving of selling commercial products for "deserved" money?
>>
>>60594150
>So then it's impossible to sell out now?
It's very possible. See the artistic sellout, when an artist change his style to appeal to the mainstream, usually forced by his/her/their label.

>Why are musicians that you like now deserving of selling commercial products for "deserved" money?
The sales are quite low these days, so any decent way to earn some money is acceptable. It's not personal, it's just business. As long the music stays great, I don't have a problem with that.
>>
>>60594040
what commercial did she do?
>>
>>60594239
Sonos i think

For Sonos, wireless speakers. Related to music, so no big deal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hd6v52RULbY

Very nice.
>>
>>60594265
As I said, if the music is still great, I don't care. It could be the biggest sellout in history.

She's been a sellout since at least the lates 00s when she was on that Twilight soundtrack.
>>
>>60594345
The song was actually very good, so it doesn't count: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOsuw1rBbG4
>>
>>60594251
meh, makes the whole discussion moot. not a very selloutish product desu
>>
Everyone knows it's not a real Annie thread til I show up
>>
>>60594345
Thats like saying Battles sold out because they wrote a track for one of the twilight movies. That track was fucking great. And so is St Vincent's.
>>
>>60594299
>>60594313
>>60594378
>>60594387

So if "I like it" then it can't be selling out?
gr8.
So the concept of "selling out" becomes moot altogether.
>>
okay people, since we're all here already, and we do like Annie. Lets figure out how to help her make some good music for a change.

ideas?
>>
>>60593295
well she's slinging tacos now for whatever thats worth
>>
Remember when we hated based Annie for a few months there? Glad we're back on track now.
>>
>>60593295
hey isnt she that dyke dating Cara
>>
It seems that a lot of mutants live in an idealized world. IRL things are different. FYI, artists don't have money making machines. They also have to pay bills. Think about this next time you download for free their albums.
>>
>>60594440
The concept of "selling out" is subjective. For example it could be for you but not for me.

Consider this: Battles also sold out, once you're making money for synergistic American media oligopolies you're sell out af. You're only allowed to make soundtracks for 4 hour Hungarian films, and even then it's only acceptable if you're scoring the whole.

Obviously SM. Actor a close second.

Actor.

I opened a voting thread: >>60588903

I will continue it until I receive at least 500 votes.

>>60594460
>Lets figure out how to help her make some good music for a change.
Funny guy. She already makes good music for years. Not a bad album since she started her music career, that's quite a spectacular achievement.
>>
>>60594440
yes, it's not a hard concept dude, if you love McDonalds and you happily make a commercial for them, it's not really selling out, is it?
>>
>>60594467
Yeah, there was a dark period of hate. People turned against her because of the shitposters and their endless spamming.
>>
>>60594572
that album with david byrne was bad, the rest was meh. im a patrician btw so you can trust me
>>
Hey, who deleted my voting thread? That is clearly music related.
>>
>>60594572
This. I cant wait for her next album.
>>
>>60594608
You're a pleb if you can't appreciate such great music. It's too good for you I guess.
>>
>>60594582
>>60594500
But then you can't claim that anyone is selling out, they're all just doing what they want and selling products that they think are neat.
>>
>>60594621
I saw that. What the fuck mods.
>>
>>60594467
all me btw

Some trigger happy mod with too much free time.

delete all the st vincent threads stop the viral marketing
>>
RING RING PHONE
>>
>>60594652
that's true. Artists with no integrity can't really sell out because they had nothing to sell out, but if an artist says stuff like "fuck the corporations" and then makes a commercial for coke thats selling out
>>
>>60594695
She's already established, dude.
