This week I decided to read different comments on twitter revolving around different artists. \u00a0These comments ranged from positive and regarding certain artists as gods to extremely negative and completely dragging these artists through the mud. \u00a0I find this all so interesting. \u00a0When people log on to twitter and an artist has recently released a new project, twitter goes nuts! People talk like crazy, and it makes me think, why? and who are you to say anything? \u00a0As soon as we click the log on button it seems as though we’re clocking into work and we’re some kind of talent experts. \u00a0I notice that there are different fan bases, and if the artists doesn’t like an artist, the fan base won’t like that artist either, regardless of the talent that artist may have. \u00a0For example, the most twitter fan battles are between Nicki Minaj fans and Lil Kim fans, ArianaGrande fans and Mariah Carey fans, and Beyonc\u00e9 fans and all pop singer fans. \u00a0These fans will go back and forth to defend their favorite artist, and at some points I ask why? \u00a0These artists don’t know you personally, nor do they see the arguments all over twitter. \u00a0To me, it’s a waste of time. \u00a0Arguing back and forth doesn’t solidify or insolidify an artists artistry. \u00a0But, yet you waste your time arguing with somebody on twitter that you’ve never met over twitter that most likely you’ll never meet over who is the real queen of rap. \u00a0What does it prove? Also, it really irks my nerve when an artist drops a new project and people with call it “trash” or “a flop” meaning that it wasn’t successful. \u00a0There are professional people who are paid to review music and yet, we have teenagers calling it trash or comparing it to the new age bible. \u00a0Who made you a music expert? On what degree do you have any credentials to say what makes music good music? \u00a0More importantly, why does it matter? Why can’t we just let artist be great at what they do and make their music and we enjoy it while we have it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
