he (according to him) fell in love with a 16 year old girl. he was also homophobic. he was allegedly a domestic abuser. he devalued women and constantly manipulated them.

im just wondering why people never talk about it? also i know hes dead, but hitler is also dead and still a bad person.

It can be songs from her older Albums or newer Albums.

I've been wondering this for a while because my experience between the two subs has been completely different.

I made a discussion thread on r/popheads that wasn't a low-effort post. It got a few comments going, people were actually discussing the topic, and then it got locked anyway. That kind of killed the conversation for no real reason.

Meanwhile, I see discussions on here that feel a lot more relaxed. People actually seem willing to talk.

Is it just a difference in moderation? Does this sub have different posting rules, or is it simply more discussion-friendly?

I'm genuinely curious because I find myself enjoying the conversations here a lot more than I ever did on popheads.

any pop moments you feel like are laziness disguised as “artistic“.

so I love the Music, Fashion, Film songs so far

however I saw an interview where Charli said the under 2 minute time of Rock Music wasn’t out of laziness but an artistic choice that felt right

and while I can totally see that. But imagine if an artist just said that but really there could be more effort into it. but I kinda feel the same way about the rest of the choices here. especially since brat this was such high effort.

look at Underscores. So amazing, imagine if she stopped half way thought Music and said “it’s done thats all” but she kept going and made a masterpiece with an outro

New Reddit community for fans for the Welsh singer Duffy as she prepares to make a comeback.

The iconic tweet by Katy Perry in 2014 is widely believed to be about Taylor Swift, but who in the industry could be described as "the Regina George in sheep's clothing" in your opinion?

Who could you imagine actually being a mean or calculating person operating under a veneer of niceness?

This is an open discussion and all opinions are welcome.

This Halftime Show debacle of starting with only three headliners, then suddenly adding more people, was one of the worst ideas.

The only performances that really carried yesterday’s show were Madonna’s and Shakira’s. I know Madge’s was pre-recorded, and there’s even gossip that she got upset after the last minute artists additions, when everything had already been planned around just three headliners, so she did the pre-recorded thing.

Even so, Madonna’s film did more than most of what happened on that stage, with Shakira ultimately saving the show at the end.

Bieber even looked like he was forced to be there.

I’m new to the thread and love to discuss this sort of thing!

Mine is: Teenage Dream is not pop bible. Outside of the singles, the album tracks sound dated and have little to no replay value. A pop bible would have album tracks be equally as popular and quality as the singles. If you stopped someone in the street and asked them to name 5 non-singles from the album they’d struggle. I don’t think songs like Circle The Drain, Dressin’ Up or Peacock have stood the test of time and I heavily doubt they will suddenly go viral or resurface anytime soon.

A couple of albums I would consider pop Bible to me include 1989 and Future Nostalgia.

Let me know what you think!

Rolling Stone even did an article on Joe Alwyn talking about his songwriting and acknowledged his co-production.

I think it would be super interesting.

For me it has to be the cure by Olivia Rodrigo!!! I feel like whenever I keep listening to the song, I can never get sick of it cuz it gets better every single time!!!

Why is there such a disconnect between what the GP and the gays want from Gaga?

I've noticed this for years and it's always been interesting to me because it feels like Gaga has two completely different audiences.

The GP seems to love when she leans into adult contemporary or softer pop. Million Reasons, Shallow and Die With a Smile all became huge with the public.

Meanwhile, a lot of the gays seem to want the complete opposite. They want songs like Abracadabra, Rain on Me.

It almost feels like whenever Gaga gives one side exactly what they want, the other side starts complaining. When she releases bangers, the GP doesn't seem nearly as interested. When she goes the AC route, the gays start asking where the dance tracks are.

Why do you think there's such a disconnect? Is it just different audiences wanting different things from the same artist, or has Gaga built a career that's so varied that people now expect completely different versions of her depending on who you ask?

It’s unfathomable that a star of her calibre hasn't been asked at some point in my opinion.

It's a ratings game and she'd definitely bring in a huge audience.

What do you think the reason is? This is an open discussion and all opinions are welcome.

What album do you believe to be 10/10 masterpiece full of pop perfection top to bottom? No skips, just x time of straight bliss?

Taylor debuted in 2006, yet she's somehow released more music than a lot of pop girls who debuted years before her. How is that even possible?

When you actually stop and look at her catalog, it's kind of insane. Original albums, re-recordings packed with vault tracks, deluxe editions, soundtrack songs, collaborations, live releases...it just keeps growing. There are girls who had a 5–10 year head start on her and still have smaller discographies. Hell, Rihanna debuted a year before Taylor and Taylor has already surpassed her in studio albums.

I know every artist has different priorities. Some moved into acting, business, family life, or just don't feel the need to release music as often, and that's completely fair. But even as someone who isn't a Taylor fan. Her work ethic when it comes to making music is genuinely admirable.

It made me wonder if Taylor is simply hungrier for music than most pop girls. Since she debuted in 2006, I honestly can't think of a single year where she hasn't released something music-related. Even when she wasn't putting out a brand new album, there was always a soundtrack song, collaboration, re-recording, vault tracks, or another music related project.

Is she just built differently when it comes to making music? Does she genuinely enjoy the process more than most of her peers, or is her drive simply on another level? Almost twenty years into her career, she's still one of the most consistently prolific artists in mainstream pop, and I can't think of many of her peers who have maintained that kind of output; Beyonce is the closest of her peers who is as just as hungry when it comes to new music.

Justin Bieber was on the biggest stage. and did nothing.

Where are the pyrotechnics? Where are the lights? Where are the costumes? why isn’t he doing baby or beauty and the beat?

Where are the pop stars at? Harry isn’t doing anything. Benson is Christian rock. Sombr? No. There’s no popstar that could perform a true pop performance today.

Olivia Rodrigo is more singer songwriter than popstar. Ariana is barely doing it.

BTS was there. K-pop is kind of the only place that really has true pop stars.

Madonna did great. Actually benson does at least do backflips. I’ll give him that. but Sabrina might be the only one?
