Do you think her success will change the music industry for the better? After all, if two siblings can do in their bedroom what it takes a whole team of writers and producers to do in a boardroom it proves to music listeners that the entire pop formula is unnecessary and artists should be given more creative control.

It makes rock music obsolete because you need to learn to play an instrument, then you have to practice all day, then you have to find people to join your band who share your vision, then you have to find a label to sign to and release your music, then you got to play live shows and tour and sleep in vans and on floors, and "pay your dues" and then maybe just maybe you'll "make it." How can that possibly compete with what she did ? It cant.
Christian Cox
You can release music without a label user
Luke Peterson
That's an interesting perspective, and you might be right. Perhaps what it will ultimately come down to, though, is not so much whether her success will prove to music listeners that artists should be given more creative control but whether it will prove this to the pop marketers, labels, producers, etc, since they're the ones who really have the power to make significant changes in the industry. We can hope.

Doubtful. Eyelash isn’t some unique miracle case. There are plenty of musicians who write and produce most of their own work and their success stories haven’t lead to a complete overhaul in how the industry is set up.
Hudson Sanchez
no, everything about her is manufactured garbage so no
Jaxson Powell
This would only be true if you ignore how much backing she had from Apple and Spotify. Without all that support and promotion there’s no way she would have gotten to where she is now.
John Thomas
not this shit again
Brayden Roberts
Apple and Spotify don't determine who wins five Grammy awards or who sells out their world tour on the first two days of ticket sales.
Juan Morris
Not everyone makes music for the sake of "making it"
Levi Jackson
They kind of do. The Grammys aren't even about artist vs. artist as much as they are label vs. label.
Wyatt Watson
The entire music industry backed her from the start. So no, she won’t change anything.
Robert Hernandez
It depends if she celebrates April, 20 or not, I would say she's a supporter and does it not for taste but rather a subjective unexplainable trip in her personal usage that are just merely tendencies of the movement, not intentionally being rebel.
Camden Hughes
I want to tittyfuck her
Luis Bell
>that cover
what exactly is fucking "rebellious" about her?
Justin Parker
It really, really makes me mad how the press tries to frame her as some sort of "rebel" that is all "weird" when her entire image and persona is calculated as fuck
Lucas Hill
she wears baggy clothes
Landon Gray
Absolute madwoman!!
Jayden Harris
absolutely not.
contrary to what lib arts kids think, the reason why we have focus groups, co-writers, producers, etc. in the entertainment industries is to keep creative people in check.
you give them most of them free reigns and (most of the time) you get self-indulgent dog shit that does not resonate on on a popular level. people just want to escape for a bit. they don't want treatises, they don't want hashish hippy poetry
Christopher Thomas
She's "defying the powers that be" by only recording in her bedroom with her brother.
Thomas Stewart
that "i record in my bedroom" angle just doesnt mean anything anymore. with no hardware at all, somebody with enough knowledge and skill can recreate the most luscious new order/peter gabriel productions that just a few decades ago was an unbelievably arduous and expensive process
Adrian Lopez
What makes you think there isn't a group of people overseeing what Billie and Finneas do? Just because they write their own material and record her vocals in a bedroom doesn't mean their music isn't going through other sets of hands before it gets officially released.
Nathan Gomez
i wonder who's behind this post

Samuel Scott
You sound mad
Nathaniel Green
Artists don't understand the music industry is a business first and foremost. They think they just make art and get paid when they're making a product that has to be palatable for consumers and modern radio. I don't believe Billie and her brother would have been given free reign to make music in their bedroom had they not come from a family of veteran actors and musicians who know the industry inside and out. Their mother teaches songwriting to other industry professionals for christs sake, can't get any more professional than that.
Cooper Murphy
But they’ve managed to become incredibly successful without any of that. I think that signifies a change in the industry is on its way.
Noah Rogers
They have all the industry bullshit in-house so they don’t need it from elsewhere
Ethan Lewis
And would you not consider that to be a break from the standard industry practice?
Luis Young
Watch this if you want 15 minutes of a major YouTube channel gushing over this girl and why she's revolutionary:

slightly. but it’s still the same hacks peddling trite, but this time it’s their kids selling it for them. almost becomes worse when you add nepotism
Luis King
Not really. As I mentioned before, their parents are industry professionals and their mother teaches songwriting and screenwriting, meaning their parents probably listen to their music and guide them on what works in an industry setting and what doesn't. And there's no evidence they don't have other overseers.
