she was more interesting than anyone in the celebrity world now. that's for damn sure. but that's true of any artist from that time period that was popular enough to be played on the radio or MTV.
nowadays mainstream art is missing the passion of experience.
i was thinking about this the other day when i was watching curb your enthusiasm. larry david was so in tune with the human experience because he lived in the thick of NYC when it was a melting pot of would-be actors and comedians and artists and musicians and everyday people. it was a diverse mix that could afford to live in a hub of culture and opportunity no matter where their lives would lead.
shit now is so out of touch, soft and self-absorbed. the brooklyn gentrifier doesn't have to live next to the waiter at the restaurant they eat at every day. those lesser people may as well not even exist. and they're seen as lesser, and this is something that's just understood even if nobody says it out loud, but in the past you didn't feel that way unless you were at the furthest edge.
the working class and the poor used to have a voice within culture even if it could be muted at times. maybe kurt cobain or madonna were rich and famous and maybe they never preached the right politics but they spoke for us just the same.
