I see it as a far more garish, less wildly pretentious, but equally self-important form of GaGa. Of course I don't keep up with Miley Cyrus.

Nah, Kesha is way better at being ridiculous.

The last album from both Gaga, Cyrus and Kesha seem to signal that they're done being trashy dance pop queens. A shame, really. The alternative is more boring. Katy Perry's last album was great because it sounds more like Lady Gaga than her last album did.

I do hope that she doesn't go deeper into eye-rolling hashtag activism though. Apparently this song was just for a compilation EP that isn't even hers so it might not reflect where ever she's going on her own.

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about why jazz musicians keep up the good work so much longer and that’s what I came up with. Maybe it was obvious all along but I used to think that it applied to all musical genres that musicians peak in their 20’s. I thought it was strange that so much great literature is written by old ****s but not music. But it turns out, it’s only because it was a youth culture talent all along.

I basically agree with what you're saying, except I think it may also have something to do with lack of sophistication and ability in the artist (which is not to say they're not great at what they do best). Being good at cranking out thumping dance anthems doesn't mean you know how to not be boring with only an acoustic guitar in your hand. I really, really hate when pop/rock artists go for something more "mature" later in their career. It's almost always a dumpster fire. Just look at the new Kylie Minogue album. It's more adult and restrained and also unimaginably boring. |

I could name many famous artists that I think have kept up a fairly strong output over two or more decades, but your money theory still works for me, since the more famous, seemingly the more likely artists are to get some misguided ideas about their own artistic aims and abilities.
