It’s not s bad song per se, but her delivery is kind of corny:

Bury a friend is song of the year

It’s falling off the charts fast.

Also didn’t she write the song about X?

Why would a 17-year old white girl sing about politics?

Zoomers get off easy.

If she was truly “deep” her cheerleaders would be able to provide concrete examples as to why.

There's nothing to understand. She's the fad and she will be gone in a few years just like the rest of them.

I know. Read what I said.

As a zoomer myself (1999), I can say nobody in my scene (clubbing/raves) gives a fuck about the newest industry plant. In fact, hardly anyone I know has even heard of her. I don't think she actually represents zoomers as much as she wants you to believe

Except a pseud(ointellectual) is one who at least makes an attempt to look knowledgeable and wise/deep. Billie has never done this from what I know of her music or what I’ve seen of her in interviews.

Both of these songs are shit.

here I go!

And gets tons of unearned praise for doing so.

This is true, but...

Most people my age have grown accustomed to being constantly bombarded by advertising and media. Billie Eilish is an archetype (industry popstar) that people in my circle have grown accustomed to filtering out. Or at least that's my guess.

have you talked to any of your peers at all? i don;t know a single person under the age of 20 that doesnt at least kind of like her. i worked in a fast food place full of highschoolers, when the album dropped i almost quit to get away from it.

On what basis?

I go to university in Montreal and hang with people I became close with through shows, clubbing and sharing music. When I asked them what they thought of Billie Eilish they said "who" except for one of buddies who said that his sister was a fan. For reference, we mostly listen to SoundCloud rap and experimental electronic music

I listen to Billie with my AirPods in Flac

Part of me wonders if Billie's choice of subject matter on her album is her (and her brother's, and her label's) attempt to copy what's currently popping in hip hop. Xanny is an anti-drug song; take these other examples of songs denouncing drug use by Cole, Denzel, etc. Or the song All The Good Girls Go to Hell, obviously about some kind of Manichaiean good-vs-evil type thing which is also highly present in contemporary hip hop ("imma demon/imma angel"-type shit). And all th songs alluding to depression and wanting to die, OBVIOUS sadboi imitations (think Yung Lean, BONES, Lil Peep) albeit with less sincerity.

Dunno, this is just my hypothesis.

rote

As a 19 year old living on the edge of a decently populated western city that isn't socially inept I can confirm that nobody I know takes xan. Ket, followed by coke are the most popular excluding weed.

>not a fan of this brain-fried thot
anyone else

No it hasn't.

This is a complete caricature. Opiates like percs and fent are much more prevalent among western youth than xannies are. The state I grew up in is currently going through an opioid - read, NOT antidepressant - epidemic and the bulk of people dying from ODs are 18-30.

Oh fuck, you wouldn't believe how many zoomers in the city where I live now are doing heroin.

But the xans are laced with fent.

The drugs “xan” is a catchall term for all hard drugs. At least I thought so with the way she’s describing it

It’s very obvious that the focus group attached to her management and her label control everything about and anything relating to her image and music

>can’t have simple disagreements with people
You don’t deserve to be in a band if you’re this autistic

It amazes me how people assume it's just her and her brother making pop songs independently in their bedroom. Doesn't Billie have a 360 deal with Interscope? I know she and her bro don't own the masters.

Plus, her image change was definitely not organic.

>Suburban America is the whole world
Xan is a fad and be gone in a year, it's only considered a problem because of soundcloud rappers constantly talking about it.

Which is probably why Billie chose to reference Xanax in her song as opposed to, say, an opiate.

The songs lyrics are pretty specifically about Xanax though.

>those results
Eeek.

Yeah but you could replace xan with percs or oxys or any other painkiller or opioid and it still applies. I don’t think the point of the song was to fixate on a specific drug but the usage of drugs

Not understanding how this is politically conscious, not even we-live-in-a-society. Just "I'M SAD EVERYONE AROUND ME IS DOING DRUGS AND I'M NOT."

If Billie did decide to sing about politics, which political issues should she sing about?

My pick: smashing the gender binary (given her rejection of corporate femininity).

if she spreads her legs for him, then that's not rape. I don't give a shit if that's the law. it's clearly consensual.

Yeah but in most states it’s still illegal for a 25-year old to fuck a 17-year old. Why make accusations especially without evidence?

most guys and girls do it with no consequences. girls always lose their virginity to older guys. calm the fuck down, nobody is going to jail. there not going to promote her with rape accusations, not that soon in her career

It's just fun and age appropriate music. I would have written the same kind of thing (albeit not as eloquently because I don't know the first thing about songwriting) when I was her age

I mean, if Billie were 18 she'd in no way be getting the free pass she seems to be getting now. Iggy's racism was arguably the product of her own ignorance, i.e. an Australian girl not understanding American race politics. Billie's culture vulturing has no excuse, especially since she's hanging around "woke" rappers like Denzel who should be doing their job to teach her a thing or two.

Billie will be forgotten in a few years, calm down

Most of the venues she's playing barely have capacity for 10k people.

The charts don't lie. Just off the top of my head, last week she had something like 14 songs in the Top 100 (her entire album minus the intro and outro, plus Ocean Eyes and the song she did with Khalid) with five of those songs in the Top 40, Bad Guy being her only Top 10 hit. Now she's only got three songs in the Top 40 and nine tracks on the charts overall. Literally most of her songs are barley clinging to the charts as it is. That's a pretty serious loss for an artist who's so hyped up beyond belief. How long did Ariana's singles stay on the charts? What about Post Malone's? Billie doesn't even come close.

A ton.

Billie has "flavour of the month" written all over her. The only way I could see her maintaining a career in five years is if Denzel keeps giving her more features (gotta be a man and provide for wifey somehow), or if she learns to break out of her ASMR vocals and learn to sing properly (speaking as a female who used to sing in high school, I can confirm her vocal style is specifically done by young girls unsure of their ability to stay on-key or sound good, so they essentially bury their vocals in the melody. It's great when you're 14 but by 18 you really have to learn how to sing out).

Or, if she mentally grows up and starts singing about serious subject matter. I can't listen to Bad Guy for more than 40 seconds without cringing. I like Xanny though.

I was here when all that awful Jumex shit was being spammed. It was a nightmare.

>Denzel keeps giving her more features (gotta be a man and provide for wifey somehow)

Are they actually dating or are they just collaborating on music?

She's said in multiple interviews she has no interest in having a boyfriend, so.

Post has been crazy successful. Shits still selling a year later and he's #2 & #3 on Hot 100 this last week with Wow & Sunflower. Ariana had her entire 13 song album debut top 40 and had the #1, #2, #3 songs at the time. She's had a #1 on the hot 100 for 15 weeks since November.

So yeah, Billie isn't either of them.

And Post is like Billie in that his music isn't "conventional" pop but highly trap-influenced. Billie is more of a novelty act, and her hype will start to die once she turns 18 and the "child prodigy/bedroom pop" thing no longer applies.

Did Billie outsell Ariana or was it all a false alarm?

this should have been her big hit instead of bad guy imho.

No. She sold very well, did over 300K, but Ariana did 360. In Billie's second week she did 118 vs. Ariana's 155 and is projected to do 85 this week vs. 117 in Ariana's 3rd week.

She did sell more actual cd's first week than Ariana because she did a tour bundle promotion.

>In Billie's second week she did 118 vs. Ariana's 155 and is projected to do 85 this week vs. 117 in Ariana's 3rd week.
Geez those numbers are dismal for someone promoted as "the next big thing". Pretty much confirms how her success thus far is about to be short-lived.
