Blossom 8,978 Posted January 11, 2023 39 minutes ago, cranekiss said: ...that has absolutely nothing to do with it. when you are an artist you HATE getting compared to other artists even if you're inspired by them. when people say "youre the next madonna" theyre stripping you of your own unique identity. a parallel could be when you aren't the only child and you have siblings. and your parents compare you to said siblings. or when your parents compare you to the kids you go to school with. it really fucks with your head. "why cant you be like xyz" well its because im not xyz. a similar experience of artists getting compared to others is when natalia kills and nicki minaj were being heavily compared to lady gaga for the sole fact that they all made dance pop music and had eclectic fashion sense. its frustrating because usually the person making said comparisons only sees things on surface level; much like those who compare ethel and lana for being "sad girls who sing with reverb and guitars" ethel is not similar to lana. lana is not similar to ethel. they are two different artists. ethel is not jealous over lana pursuing jack, ethel is just annoyed to have her artistic identity stripped from her constantly because people always compare other artists. I don't know anything about Ethel lol im sorry if I offended u... I understand ur point though but Ethel's reaction just seemed a bit extreme. I would think that as an artist you'd be honoured to be compared to a grammy nominated artist who completely revolutionized alternative music. However, I'm sure the comparison would get old quick so her frustration makes sense. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
