Yikes, tell us how you really feel. LOL

She hasn’t OD’d yet ?

I’m guessing Katy Perry has fallen out of favor with the powers that be.

Her new album is getting uniformly panned.

i gave it a listen. She’s ticking all the boxes for vapid, disposable muzak like all the other stuff, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, etc. She’s prancing around half naked in her music videos.

Hard to see where she’s going wrong. I can only assume a hatchet job is being done.

Ahh it’s a conspiracy. Interesting theory.

Let’s be honest here: Katy Perry is uninspiring and easily forgettable.

Oh Dog….have I really got to tell you, to back-up my claim with proof? Isn’t it obvious enough already? But if you really want to know, then I suggest you start with the other Kate. The English one. Kate Bush.

Dog, we seem to be miscommunicating. Sure,Kate Bush is great! I wouldn’t even mention her in the same breath as her Perry namesake.

Im referring to Perry’s peers - the current regular slew of pop tarts on the scene. I think if you compare Perry’s new album to their slop it compares quite well. That was my point.

Interestingly, the reviews of Perry’s album are pretty much on the same page. The degree of viciousness and derision (see the article) seems to be standard in the reviews.

Again, compared to the “product” of her contemporaries, It does make one wonder.

Yeah, eg, Harvey Weinstein was derailing careers. It does happen for various reasons. I take it you’ve led a very sheltered life.

Ah, well, that’s grand. I am relieved.

Wouldn’t know about that, having never listened to any of them and don’t allow any of them through my speakers for fear of breaking….the speakers that is. But each to his, or her, own.

Hmmm. In that case I’m not sure you are qualified to contribute much to this discussion, Dog, and wonder why you are trying.

Well, Swiss, having made five comments on dross/“pop tarts”, I guess you must have skin in the game. Either that, or you’re an expert on pop tarts and dross.

Actually, it’s the industry I am somewhat interested in. The pop tarts are just part of that - though a very big part these days.

Always keep an open mind, Swiss.

And you have made four.
