Sums it up. As big as her career is, she really only caters to one demographic - the basic, self-absorbed white girl with first world problems. "Omg I'm literally shaking right now because Starbucks messed up my order and now my day is ruined, I can't even" in musical form.
The thing is, she's clearly huge in other countries/continents in a way that most artists aren't.
Which is strange to me, because I just don't see what pulls them in.
Her songwriting is good but her actual singing/performance is basic to bad.
She couldn't win a talent show at my local middle/high school, deadass.
Like, I get why MJ ruled the world at his peak.
Singing, crazy dancing and just a general oddness/weirdness to his music that others lacked.
Beyonce as well, in terms of singing and performance.
Gaga for singing, oddity edge as well.
Her performance was mediocre but she COULD sing at least, and her songwriting was interesting.
Taylor though? None of that, aside from songwriting. It's like media inertia propelled her to the top or something.
She's like if the Make a Wish foundation put in a script for an all American popstar into chatgpt.
Just benignly milqetoast and blandness manifested into reality.
She's smart, talented and beautiful. I like her music. She's one of the only artists out there making wholesome music and not making "thot" songs and promoting "thottism" like Cardi Lame-O and those other clowns.
