Capitalism And The Top 1% Of Artists + TTPD Follow Up
Manage episode 415688647 series 2922564
This week on Name 3 Songs…
⚡ Fangirl Nonsense: We are chomping at the bit to see the two horniest movies of the season: Challengers and The Idea of You. Billie Eilish is also on the cover of Rolling Stone giving TMI on her sexual life.
⚡ A week after Taylor released The Tortured Poets Department and a week after our episode dropped, we’re revisiting thoughts based on online conversations to ask ourselves if you can be a fan of Taylor Swift without being invest in the lore. We also look at Taylor’s lyrical references to Kim Kardashian in “thanK you aIMee” and why she chose to bring up the infamous Taylor-Kim-Kanye beef now.
⚡ Harry Styles’ Pleasing is hosting a pop up in Austin, Texas. It’s all very cute on the outside, but taking a closer look at the merchandise prices has us wondering – can you really buy your way into kindness and inclusivity? We discuss the ethics of capital accumulation and celebrity brands that continue to make the top 1% of artists richer while lower and middle class artists struggle to make music their full time job. This leads us to think deeper about overconsumption and market saturation, not only of physical products, but also as music as a product. We also bring Charli XCX and Troye Sivan’s collab arena tour and Halsey’s makeup line About Face into the conversation for comparison on how artists are turning a profit.
