Not really sweetheart. The ppl bringing her up do it because you well know it's the easiest way to shut Lana fans up or clap back to defend Halsey instead of giving solid arguments. But that's not going to end this 'fight' or whatever is happening here because once you shut one up another will appear because this is a Lana Del Rey forum after all and there a far more LDR fans here than Halsey's. Like the samples thing yesterday, someone said Halsey sampled a song and then out of nowhere another person mentions Born to Die. And look, here we are. Did that solve anything? No.
 
Anyway, like I said I prefer to talk about Halsey on here instead of Lana so I'll leave it here.  

You keep saying that the only argument against her is the whole National Anthem/New Americana situation but what about Sky calling her out for copying her video?
 
Sure, using samples is fine, as long as the original artist gets money for it and are happy with it. BUT my point is that Halsey constantly needs other artist's work whether it's samples or blatant plagiarism in order to support her own work. She lacks originality.

they've been teasing a collab for years tbh their friendship is so lowkey and random... remember that time everyone thought she was collabing with him on ultraviolence because she tagged him in a selfie on instagram? 

Didn't Sky have receipts of Halsey hiring the same team of people who shot Sky's video tho?

People are saying the Hurricane instrumental sounds eerily similar to the Dark Paradise instrumental.
Everyone can agree that the new version of New Americana is pretty much National Anthem.
Her video for Ghost is a blatant rip-off of Sky's video for Night Time, My Time and Sky even called her out on it.
Her songs are full of samples, the Hold Me Down instrumental was pretty much mostly samples of other people's songs.
 
Can this girl do anything by herself or does she need the help of other artist's work each time?
I still like her music a lot and I love her personality on twitter but there comes a point where people have to accept that she isn't as original as people think, she's taken aspects of tons of other artist's aesthetics and sounds then molded them all together to create the image she has.

Emile samples are different though. They are mostly bits of recordings used as another instrument or to add something to the song (ex. Off to the Races). There are LOTS of songs with these kinds of samples (ex. Rihanna's Cheers). I haven't listened to Easy though, so I can't give my opinion on that, but don't try to make it feel like BTD is sample driven.

Do I like Halsey's music? Yes. Do I think she's completely manufactured (possibly not even to her knowledge) to market to teenagers who shop at urban outfitters and want to listen to "indie" music? Absolutely.

Why is a hit not important though?  
Also, you're making it seem like hits are always generic songs when they're not. I mean, look at Video Games. Did it hurt BTD's quality? Or Amy's Rehab. Or Gotye's Somebody That I Used to Know. I personally don't like the last one, but it surely is an alternative track yet hit the mainstream without "compromising" quality and being taken seriously. It's not like @@leaked_version is saying she should do a track with Dr. Luke featuring Iguana Analbleeding and sing it at the VMAs.

The "I'm a dragon, you're a whore" part is the same theme as the "fucked my way up to the top" part tho she's still addressing someone who's fucked a lot of guys. I agree tbh I don't think she'd call Lorde a whore.
 
Personally I think it's about Taylor but  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Still stand by my opinion that FMWUTTT is about Taylor. Drag ha lana
