I was just talking to a friend about mainstream, famous singers who get polarized reactions. She has indeed received a mixed response, as is common with many artists who make it big in the industry. Some admire her unique style, distinctive voice, and willingness to push boundaries in music. She definitely brought something different to the table. I appreciate her authenticity and the vulnerability in her lyrics. Others think she’s just not that much. Not that particular, not that special, unworthy of all the hype and overestimated, forced in wanting to appear like the quirky, different girl in music. In the end, it’s all very subjective.
