"Why is pop music the only art form that still inspires such arrantly stupid discussion? The debates that surround authenticity have no relationship to popular music as it’s been practiced for more than a century. Artists write material, alone or with assistance, revise it, and then present a final work created with the help of professionals who are trained for specific and relevant production tasks. This makes popular music similar to film, television, visual art, books, dance, and related areas like food and fashion. And yet no movie review begins, “Meryl Streep, despite not being a Prime Minister, is reasonably convincing in ‘The Iron Lady.’ " — Lana Del Rey’s Image on “Born to Die” : The New Yorker

#ARRANTLY STUPID #god i love how sick everyone with a brain is of this debate #literally it is just hipsters getting morally indignant when told that their art of choice doesn't come out of thin air #nothing to do with talent just fools in granola sweaters being new as fuck #lana del rey #music #best gal #i don't usually do contrarian stanning but i will say i'd TALK about her less if the criticism had like #anything #to do with her actual music
