Billie never claimed to be counter-cultural or anti-system. She doesn't even claim to be politically leftist, so how is this ad an indication of her "selling out" exactly?
>you can't fake authenticity
i like her dress sense desu
>sang the hook on a political Denzel Curry song
>has songs about social issues on her album
>has made political tweets which indicate she swings to the left
>gets praised constantly for being "woke"
>"she's not a sellout guize she NEVER CLAIMED to be anything but a braindead pop star!!!"
Maybe she's poking fun at the people calling her a plant?
she didn't make the ad moron
But she came up with the concept.
"no"
Look, I don't care if she's a plant. What I care about is how she denies being one and puts on a fake woke persona (see: ) in order to appear counter-cultural and gather all the praise as if she is. Major labels always try to take over the underground because the underground is where the innovation lies. That's what Shillie is and that's why I oppose her on principle.
She's about as edgy and original as a bottle of fucking Coca Cola
Reminder that Fantano called her the Leonard Cohen of the Zoomer generation
as a zoomer this pisses me off. no one i know, even the normiest girls, likes her. only time anyone has mentioned her is when one of my fiends said she had big tits.
>comparing a literal poet to someone who can't even write her own lyrics
Cringe.
>>sang the hook on a political Denzel Curry song
She wasn't even credited.
>>has songs about social issues on her album
Xanny isn't even about kids dying of drugs but about how lonely she is because she's the only one who's sober.
>>has made political tweets which indicate she swings to the left
Such as?
>>gets praised constantly for being "woke"
I have never seen her called socially conscious once. I see more people on Yea Forums saying this than in the media.
She isn't a sellout. She's doing product endorsements like every major artist at the moment. It's what artists do since it's an easy paycheck and good promotion.
>She wasn't even credited.
so?
If she wanted to be true to the DIY ethic she implies she espouses she wouldn't touch a major fashion ad with a 50ft pole.
I thought her music was entirely made for basic white girls.
You're right, she's not woke. She's a pseud and her music is pseud-core.
one would think. for someone so 'popular' you'd think i'd know at least one person who listens to her irl.
I live in Canada and have heard Bad Guy and When the Party's Over play on mainstream pop stations. She also gets tons of entertainment press coverage here.
maybe she gets played on the radio, but no one i know my age actually listens to the radio anymore.
I know quite a few basic white girls that like her. My girlfriend is going to her concert (if Shillie makes it to the summer) I'm very close to breaking up with her, she's such a fucking normie it's embarrassing
To be honest, I want to go to her concert when she comes here, just because I want to see Denzel upstage her. Tickets are like $250 CAD though and it's sold out.
Fun fact: the "huge" stadium they're performing in has a capacity of under 9000.
Billie Eilish makes music for girls who live vicariously through her “badgirl” aesthetic but are afraid to say something if the fast food worker forgot their straw
Lorde makes music for girls who post out-of-context Nietzsche quotes on their IGs.
Billie makes music for girls who buy Nietzsche's books only for the purpose of taking a pic with a cup of coffee.
>paying over $200 to see an industry plant whisper for an hour and a half
I mean tbf, she did put out a post on IG not too long ago of her making fun of a woman who had gotten a misandristic tattoo, and stating something along the lines of had the gender roles been reversed women would be outraged.
So there's that, at least.
Not very social justice-y of her.
I'm willing to bet she's pretty dumb and just repeats "smart" shit she's heard in order to look intelligent.
That slogan alone makes me cringe.
why do singers need to flog shit other than their music?
to keep the shekels flowing
Product endorsements are needed to pay back the debts they've accumulated from their labels. If Shillie's getting loads of payola, she needs to make all that money back via her royalties. You can bet she'll come out with a fragrance line too.
She has a different opinion than you /pol/tards, thats it
big ol jim halpert face at that one desu cunt
I'm actually a leftist. That's why Shillie angers me, I can tell she's a gigantic poseur.
Shes turning 18 in december, still need to mature and learn.
Disproving her political position because shes an industry plant is a stretch.
If she was a principled lefty she wouldn't be so quick to sell out, or would at least be more vocal about her political positions through her art.
She owes us shit man, stop being so autistic.
/Thread
don't thread yourself prick
I'm confused as to why she's popular. Aren't there any artists with a similar """aesthetic""" that actually singing ability and a shred of originality?
Not really , good singers dont dress like sad bois
Watching her LARP as a lefty while being a big fashion shill is still cringey.
FKA Twigs
Checked, why LARP?, Man just let people be...
Not the same aesthetic, retaded faggot learn to read
So, a girl who dresses like a SoundClown but can actually sing? Not sure.
>is a hypocrite with shitty optics
>YOu caN't FaKe aUthEnTIcItY
zhe abscholute state of zhe propaganda industry my gott *schniffs*
>>sang the hook on a political Denzel Curry song
She drank his cum sauce for that feature.
I jist dont see why it hurts you so much, thats how it has been forever, and doesnt mean an artist doesnt believe the bullshit they speak, you dont want sellouts and hypocrisy?, Dont listen to pop music
I'd agree but there's reason people would be skeptical when Billie is specifically marketed as countercultural and "not like other pop stars".
i don't listen to pop music i just share a board with advertisers and simps who cynically consume it unfortunately
They have all the right to call her out for teying to pass as an indie fenomena, no artist has an obligation to support the same political views as us.
