And I took that and like really applied it to my entire life and started gatekeeping myself so hard.
But we were having kind of like we were talking about like boys, I think, and like dating and love and what, you know, different songs meant. And she was explaining what certain songs meant that she hasn't publicly explained. And when I asked like ways to kind of or when I was pitching ways to. share it online or share it through her community. She was like, it's not for everyone.
So I think people taking pages in that book were like, interesting. I don't, I don't know if Billy has outwardly said the things like the topics that her album is about. I think she has done a little bit more storytelling than someone like Lana would.
But she's never outwardly being like, this song is about Jesse Rutherford.
I don't think she said that.
It's very implied.
Right?
And there's like worlds being built around songs like that where it's like when she's playing it at the concert and like definitely Carlson's in the audience. Like, you know, everyone's like, ah, it's so crazy. Right, right, right.
Yeah. It's personal at the end of the day and like everything is subjective.
I'd argue, though, it still got to people who didn't get her before. Oh, yeah. A lot of normies, and I say normies with love, a lot of normies are thinking that they're so Julia and that they're everywhere. And I think that's the beauty of this era is it really transcended beyond the people that didn't care before.
Correct.
Don't spend your time pining over being niche.
Yeah. Gatekeep yourself.
We're bringing back gatekeeping. Charlie did say at that one private event that she did where she had that quote, it's like, it's hard being ahead. Like she said, there's power. No, no, no. Sorry. It was Hollywood reporter event or something where she goes, you know, there's power in the niche.
And I think even at the time she was getting so much critical acclaim for Brat, but she still felt like this is niche. This is still a subculture.
My favorite thing was she didn't follow the traditional like press mold. Like I loved that she waited to go on SNL because people are like, okay, it's album release. We're going on SNL this week, right?
And she waited so long. I was like, yes, this is cool.
One thing I will make very clear on this podcast, I am Dua Lipa's defender. I will defend that girl till the day I die. So let's go.
I don't think so. Have you seen the Brit nominations? Come on. I'm sorry Americans did not get radical optimism. You just don't have taste.
Sorry, there's an entire Minecraft world for radical optimism. There is. There's totally a world around it. You just don't get it.
