20th century folk revivalists first heard woody guthrie and pete seeger in the 1940s then listened to their music for another 40 years until they were all deadwhy is the lifespan in the limelight of modern musicians so much shorter? is it because everything's been done already so the novelty wears off faster?
>>128483087>why is the lifespan in the limelight of modern musicians so much shorter?Talent and length of career tend to directly correlate. OHWs are usually OHWs for a reason.
>>128483113i guess woody was also a one hit wonder when you think about it
>>128483087>why is the lifespan in the limelight of modern musicians so much shorter?A billion times more musicLess financial incentive to support anyone except the top actsCompetition with the top acts of the past via hedge funds pumping catalogues
your picrel was right wing agitprop that was immediately dropped when he stopped toeing the line lol
>>128483087He noticed the fanbase he got, didn't personally agree with them, and quickly backed off of pandering to them. He sacrificed money for integrity and I respect that. But if you mean other artists and not just Oliver: no fucking clue. Probably just luck.
>>128483087>why is the lifespan in the limelight of modern musicians so much shorter?Cuz your money ain't shitAnd neither are youCuz you're 4 foot 2And you're probably a JewAnd you know it's trueWoo hoo hoo
>>128483087He pandered to MIGA cucks and then he regretted about it because his music was being “weaponized” lmao
>>128483087>why is the lifespan in the limelight of modern musicians so much shorter?It's the opposite. Innumerable bands now indulge in reunions and anniversary tours.Duh, Woody and Pete lasted. They were the two biggest artists. Now everyone lingers on for decades, whether they were good or not.
>>128483683no artist ever gets 100% of the fanbase they want, there's always going to be some people into your music you don't like.
>>128483087Gee I don't know, why does astroturfed political shit have a short shelf life?
>>128484868Yes. You will get some people you don't like. But in this case he was noticing the fanbase he didn't want was a MAJORITY of the people. Once you have a song that gets giant in the right wing crowd you have two options: A. Go full-on grifter and revolve all of your music around it to make $$$$ or B. Change topics and lose the fanbase. And he probably just didn't want to be a country version of Tom McDonald so he dropped it and moved on. If those were my only options I'd probably pick B too.
>>128485033You need to quit being terminally online, seriously.
>>128485042what's wrong with what he said?
>>128485070The fact that he started bringing up e-celeb grifters proves he's terminally online and should probably have sex instead.
>>128483087>why is the lifespan in the limelight of modern musicians so much shorter?
>>128485097Drake's viable commercial lifespan was from 2009-16, that's an average length for a pop star.
>>128485079I didn't bring up any specific celebrities. I never even called him an e-celeb. I'm just saying that's the options a musician is given if they get a song popular off of a giant right wing fanbase.
>>128483087nobody ever seriously believed this obese hipster fuck was "right" leaning. maybe a few boomers did but i always saw right through him.
