Easily.
Right. That's what I'm saying. It's like, it's interesting that music never figured that out too. It reverse wise. And an interesting thing of like how physical consumption is like impacting these things, which I think we're seeing a big shift in D to C though.
I think we will too. I mean, notoriously merch has been so bad. Um, but last thing I want to touch on super quick is this last slide about visuals building identity because two artists that I think are super interesting to compare, um, as like specifically in the past year that they've had is Addison Rae versus Madison beer. Whoa.
because i think that they are so came from very similar places you think like this internet kind of realm like i feel like a popular internet relatively around the same time okay and i would say that addison ray is a worse singer but better at building a world and madison beer is a better singer but worse at building a world okay and it's interesting to me that addison had a bigger year okay
it like, I just think that it's so interesting. Like, cause I, to this day, like again, like, I don't know. I think Madison is trying to figure it out and she has shifted so many things. Like even just looking at these three pictures of Addison, like I see how they look, they connect. She wants, she, her references are Brittany, Charlie, and Lana.
And she wants to be this like middle point of the Venn diagram between the thing. Like she is pop girl and she's kind of party, but also is a bit more poetic, you know, like diet Pepsi vibes. I feel like Madison has struggled so hard to like figure out her lane. She makes incredible music, but she has not found like a story that has grasped people. Does that make sense?
And I think that's interesting is like this is Madison's problem.
Yeah.
And that, real. I think that's really, really real, valuable feedback. Or is, I think Addison's willing to fail.
That's the interesting thing about her.
Like, people haven't talked about it. I'm like, this is like her third attempt at putting out music. It works now. But she has tried. She's had music videos that got shit on. She's leaked an EP that got shit on. Then she leaked more songs, 10 songs that weren't even on this EP. Like, she has tried so many times. And finally, it started working. And which one I think is cool.
I really admire anybody who is...
willing to fail in the public eye and take feedback and improve like again talking about Dua remember people used to shit on Dua for being a bad dancer yeah and then she just like buckled down and now she's like an incredible like I would put her in like the top echelon of performers she's amazing and that to me is one of the coolest like I love to see an artist do that I think it's so cool like we have somehow like like to criticize things instead of like
appreciating and encouraging people to improve. You know what I mean? Like, oh, you're wrong. You're bad. Instead of like, this is an opportunity for you to get better.
That's such a good question because no, and that's absolutely like, you're right. It doesn't make sense. It literally does not make sense. But, um, I think Addison has a vision for where she wants to go, even if she's not there. I think Madison is struggling to find the vision and that has been her issue. Yeah.
You know, like visually, like even these three pictures, I show you like this magazine cover to what she wore at a concert to what she was wearing in the make you mind music video.
Could not be more different.
Okay, that's what I thought it was. Because she looks very Megan Fox in this. Yeah.
Moral of the story, God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers. It's hard. And Madison Beer is in the trenches of that. You know, like she's just perfect at everything and, you know, it's going to be a rough life. Anyways, I really enjoyed talking to you. This was so much fun.
I know you should come back sometime. We got to wait until there's like a good release that we both like really want to talk about and I'll see y'all next week. Bye.
