She’s not the worst role model we’ve ever seen, so at least the world isn’t completely mad. I think her music is mediocre, and don’t understand the fanfare, but to each their own.

The average musician isn’t making shit, and yet the spotify execs are sipping champagne.

“not making profits”
Just massive salaries and equity
