Clario and Lana Del Rey have the EXACT same level of artistic merit (zero)
>both are rich kids who wanted to be pop stars but had no talent >both had their rich dads pay for their careers, stylists, publicists, song writers, marketers >both are literal 5/10s even with hundreds of thousands of $ put into their image >both just took on a popular aesthetic at the time >i.e lana acts sad and brooding (even though her parents are literal billionaires) and dresses like its the 50s >i.e clario acts like shes making music out of her bedroom and wears unisex jeans and doesnt pluck her eyebrows causes shes hip and doesnt care >both have virtually no input on their music or aesthetic yet somehow fully get away with it as if they're authentic
Atleast billie made the initial moves in her career around 3 years ago before the strategic marketing/stylist team took over
These two are quite literally everything wrong with the music industry and couldnt exist if there was an ounce of integrity, you all need to stop endorsing a cancer on this thing youre supposed to love.
lana del rey's early stuff is great (lizzy grant). lana is amazing. clairo has her own thing as well
Leo Ramirez
My love for Clario is greater than my love for music
Aaron Reyes
LDR could at least make radio singles that got decent play and regard by the general normie population. What has Clairo done? Made one YouTube video?
Christian Wright
What do you mean by make? she has ZERO input on the things that are released under here name, do you people really not comprehend what services billionaires can buy?
People here masturbate to them and pretend to like their music as justificaction. Billie Ellish falls under the same category. Fuck all of these shitty pseuds and all their fans.
Lana Del Rey is a regular popstar, nothing wrong with that. Clairo is pretending to be DIY when she isn't.
Ethan Bennett
Doesn’t matter if she herself produced/wrote/“made” or not, zero artistic input and nothing but corporate money can still make chart toppers. Clairo has all the industry connections in the world and still can’t land a single to save her life
Christian Allen
she did pretty girl herself. the album is a result of friends in the business.
Ethan Gray
she doesnt pretend at all, she explains pretty clearly how it happened
but she doesnt have all the industry connections in the world. she made a viral video (herself) and then when it got popular, she reached out to their family friends in the business. her famiy friends have some connections but are no where near the pinnacle of hte music business.
they sent her to work with a produce, not a huge well known producer but a good one. he actually worked well with her sound and didnt try to change it ; amplified its good points but didnt surpress her sound. he did a good job.
her song bags is pretty good; so is softly and sofia. the whole album is pretty decent. not earth shattering but really enjoyable, simple and sweet but sad in a way.
lana is on a whole different level. she has real connections and is at the pinnacle. lana actually worked hard early on even with her connections. you can see her playing small shows back before she blew up. working out her songs and peformances. lizzy grant etc
You dont understand what being a BILLIONAIRE entails, she didnt work hard or grind smalls shows, thats not how BILLIONAIRES work you fucking clown, its all paid for and merely effective PR working on virgins like you
None of this is music, why are you on this board
Brody Garcia
i know you're the resident clairo incel, but anyone else who actually believes this is brain-damaged. lana is the most talented female pop act of the last 30 years. people should look back on her 2011-2014 run with fanatical devotion.
Xavier Sanchez
Neither Billie or Clairo have released anything good, Lana's career is spotty at best.
Robert Hill
You all think of Jaden smith like some kind of manufacturered artist whose parents paid for everything (and he is) yet Lana is ok? Will Smith is worth only like 300mil, Lanas parents are billionaires, over triple this and its not new money its legitimate old ingrained money, if you think for a second she earned her status youre retarded
Hey at least is not Grimes! T-b-h s-e-n-p-a-i f-a-m people study to become an Engineer why can't she get a career on the free reefer with champagne and cocaine.
Henry Williams
she followed me on s*undcloud about two years ago and ii followed back for the clout. her music is shit but shes very pretty and sweet as a person too i hear..
