Not sure about the music scene, but the whole OF craze puzzles me too. It is just overpriced pics. I use Sylchat because the live interaction is actually personal and way better value. After that, everything else feels like a ripoff.

Kate was the hot indy thing at the time, then her material didn't get the promotion to make people aware as she got dropped by her label, then trends changed also Kate Nash changed her style of music.
MomentoVivere88@reddit
She also went into acting and was in Netflix's Glow

I think people saw through Lily Allen as a nepobaby very quickly (before the term was coined), and Kate Nash was very much seen as a poor woman's Lily Allen. I guess a lot of people found them annoying and a bit fake, even if their best known tunes were catchy and got a lot of airtime.

Even if she was a nepobaby, she still brought something different.

I'm not the biggest fan of pop music, but I know enough of them as they're always on the radio.
The simple answer is artists such as Taylor swift and Ed Sheeran (or whoever) make money on a more consistent basis.
There's plenty of artists I like to listen to on Spotify, but I know they won't sell out crowds like the mainstream pop artists.

Those are the best gigs to go to. Travel to a city on the other side of the country to go to a pub with a 200 person capacity. Best nights of my life

It’s been pushed out of pop music. There’s still a large amount of people in the same style but it’s a lot harder to find now.

bishibashi@reddit
Not strictly relevant, but shocked today to find out Lily get 8m streams a month on Spotify, but makes more from her onlyfans where 1000 people subscribe just to see pictures of her feet. https://x.com/lilyallen/status/1849803776753893639
Gregory-Black666@reddit (OP)
assuming she charges alot, i assume 1000 people on what she charges is alot more stable then residuals!
bishibashi@reddit
I’m sure her foot pics help generate a lot of “residuals”
Ok I’ve made myself feel sick now
HowCanYouBanAJoke@reddit
For fucks sake /u/bishibashi, go sit on the step and think about what you just did to everyone in this thread for 30mins.
Gregory-Black666@reddit (OP)
It was so bad u/HowCanYouBanAJoke HAD TO BAN THE JOKE!
Gregory-Black666@reddit (OP)
NOOOOOOO BROOOOOOO WHYYYYYY
AerodynamicHandshake@reddit
I guess Anthony Szmierk is close in style, even if it's more in the vein of the Streets rather than Kate Nash.
tmr89@reddit
Cringe
SlightProgrammer@reddit
I reckon a grown 35 year old man calling something cringe is way more embarrassing.
SweepTheLeg69@reddit
Dry your eyes, mate.
Gregory-Black666@reddit (OP)
POV: TMR89 finds out musicians exist
🤢👿
AerodynamicHandshake@reddit
What is?
Gregory-Black666@reddit (OP)

s199320@reddit
Was thinking this about the streets recently, although they are quite unique anyway, not much similar came before them
KingKhram@reddit
The Streets are still very popular. So good live
s199320@reddit
Yeah I agree but there’s been none that have copied Mike skinners style. Which I suppose is a good thing as why even today
TURN THE PAGE ON THE DAY WALK AWAY
KingKhram@reddit
There's probably some artists out there that have his style, but Mike is a 1 of a kind. I can't see anyone doing better than what he produces
Fun_Gas_7777@reddit
Trends change all the time.
Gregory-Black666@reddit (OP)
