She's also WAY better than Selena Gomez.

even if she was latina, this is a really weird thing to say. Would you say "Billy Joel is a better white singer/piano player than Elton John"? "Adele is a better white pop singer than Lady Gaga"?

While I don't necessarily want to group my opinions in the same basket at Jeff's, but under certain circumstances (like the Unpopular Music Opinion Thread), I might.

True, and maybe that's what Jeff was actually trying to say, because it is technically true:

We're all "mixed". And FWIW, Selena Gomez's mom is of italian descent (per wiki). |
Re: OLIVIA RODRIGO: Guts - September 8, 2023
I just randomly listened to five Selena Gomez songs on Qobuz, can anyone recommend one that doesn't have her voice autotuned into oblivion?

Ok so you accuse me of being a racist and take something I said out of context? -rolleyes- I have more Public Enemy records than you and I was watching Yo MTV Raps in the late 80's and early 90's before rap became mainstream and commercial while you were listening to New Kids on the Block. |

FWIW, I never accused you of anything other than being weird. And I didn't take anything you said "out of context", I literally quoted your entire posts in both of my responses to you. And I was a hippie, I was listening to the Grateful Dead, thank you very much. But FYI, rap was pretty mainstream and commercial before the late 80s and early 90s. |

Re: OLIVIA RODRIGO: Guts - September 8, 2023
Just wanted to point out that a couple years ago I said Ms Rodrigo was a "flash in the pan", and aside from her nearly flashing the audience last night, it appears I couldn't have been more wrong about her staying power.
