Ice spice makes terrible music and I don't understand why people like her so much, amirite?

Many people today make music not with the intention of making good music but instead making music that will go viral and be a trending audio on TikTok. Ice Spice may be one of those people.

The problem isn't that these types of people exist. The problem is that the general public incentivizes them to. With no one to consume trash, creating trash wouldn't be incentivized. But, instead, people somehow create a brand loyalty around people. No matter what someone who is in the spotlight produces, there will be people who conflate celebrity with significance and continue to consume their detritus as if it's delicious. And the rest of us have to suffer their existence. Ain't life a bitch.

Or maybe the trashy art from years age simply faded into obscurity. While we are changing culturally, it's incredibly doomist to act like all of human culture is degrading.

do people know they can just not listen to music they don't enjoy?

by Appropriate-Fly 1 year ago

Problem is it's played everywhere so you have to suffer it if you go outside your property.

You know you have a pretty damn good privileged life when hearing a song you don't like publicly is "suffering".

Who even is she? I have no clue who you people are talking about.

by weimannmadalyn 1 year ago

It felt like her rise was kinda astroturfed. I feel it was much more knowing the right people behind the scenes rather than her initial talent

by Holliebaumbach 1 year ago

Well yeah. She didn't tour or earn her fans or anything. There's only one way you get famous without actually going out and working really hard as a musician. It's because you're the latest flavor of ice cream that the record company focus group decided would be profitable with their target demographic.

Y'all pmo. Jack Harlow is not an industry plant. Words have meaning, he's been rapping and making music since high school. And he has like 4 eps pre his debut album. he had label attention on him in his early twenties but he wanted to create more music before signing on.

by jenkinsalba 1 year ago

Such an overused term.

I don't think they understand what that term even means. I'm from the Bronx and she grew from the drill scene here. What aspect would make her an industry plant?

by jacobsonpiper 1 year ago

The part where I don't like her so clearly no one else does. Damn record labels.

by Designer-Parfait-407 1 year ago

Industry plant and I'm pretty sure she has family in the music business She was suddenly everywhere with little build up and is now playing the biggest festivals in the world. When you watch her live performances you can see how inexperienced she is with such large crowds

by hammesalexys 1 year ago

Yeah, I'm skeptical of anybody who didn't have to build a boots on the ground fan base and pay their dues before they got outlandishly famous. I've done the band thing. It's f****** hard and it takes forever

by Personal_Ad4261 1 year ago

100%, I hate when record labels push artists onto us. It's almost as if they're saying "THIS is what you have to like now"

by hammesalexys 1 year ago

…further corroborating the claim that she is an industry plant.

by StayOk1156 1 year ago

So everyone hated her until they just one day decided to wake up and change their mind, with no outsider help or influence?

by StayOk1156 1 year ago

Men would hyper sexualize her. They'd hype her looks. Women would say things such as "she makes girl music.. her music is fun. You guys hate fun things" it was a meme to like her music then people started unironically liking her music. She released a catchy song, she twerked in the video and got a bunch of traction because she had finally released a "good song." This is literally what happened in the beginning. I saw it happen in real time. Then she grabbed Drake's attention, but something happened after their meeting, he unfollowed her and obviously her status became even higher.

I feel like my taste in rap and what is currently popular rap music diverged around 2005. It is not that there is no good rap music anymore. It's just that most of what is popular just sounds like garbage to me. The only time I've heard Ice Spice's music was on SNL, but she definitely falls into that category. She is sexy though.

She is attractive and has a big butt. That trumps talent

by Anonymous 1 year ago

I hate to say this but she's simply another mediocre female rapper with an amazing ass. She also has no problem showing off this amazing ass and that's why she's popular. There are female rappers who are legitimate poets but they get no attention because they don't necessarily have amazing bodies and they don't sexualize themselves. This isn't coming from some puritanical place, I don't care one way or the other what people choose to do with their bodies, but it's clear the music industry doesn't value the lyricism of female rappers.
