So while ATRL has difficulty admitting the facts, critiques think otherwise 
Robert Hilburn of the Los Angeles Times says,
Quote:
|
"Pink stood up for her music, broke the music industry's mold and scored a breakout hit, challenging a school of teen singers to find their own sounds as well." He adds, " Pink also started a race among other teen pop stars like Christina Aguilera to add substance to their own sound."
|
Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone commented:
Quote:
|
"I think people respond to her sense of independence and dedication. It inspires people ... This is a prolific pop artist who is sometimes famous and successful, sometimes obscure, who nonetheless keeps making her own kind of music. Every few years, the spotlight comes back around to her—but her fans can trust that when the spotlight moves along, Pink will keep on writing Pink songs."
|
Ann Powers of LA Times adds that
Quote:
|
her mix of rock-style rebellion, emotional rawness, humor, and "infectious" dance beats created "a model for the mashup approach of latter-day divas such as Avril Lavigne, Katy Perry, Kesha, and even Rihanna."
|
James Montgomery of MTV describes her
Quote:
|
as "a fabulously fearless pop artist" who can "out-sing almost anyone out there. She can out-crazy Gaga or Lily. She's the total pop-star package, everything you'd want in a singer/entertainer/icon. And still, she remains oddly off the radar. Such is the price of busting borders, I suppose."
|
Entertainment Weekly said:
Quote:
|
"She essentially invented the whole modern wave of Pop Diva Domination: You can draw a straight line from “Get This Party Started” to Katy Perry, Kesha, pre-messianic Lady Gaga, and post-weird Rihanna."
|
Glamour Magazine wrote:
Quote:
|
"When Pennsylvania-born Alecia Moore debuted in 2000, pop was dominated by long-locked blonds like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Jessica Simpson. Pink changed the game. Without her, the last 13-years of big-voiced, tough chick music is hard to imagine."
|
Jon O'Brien of AllMusic stated that
Quote:
|
Pink's music provided "the benchmark for the careers of Kelly Clarkson and Katy Perry, to name just two."
|
The Advocate wrote:
Quote:
|
"The singer has changed the sound of modern pop music irrevocably, paving the path for many of today’s most popular modern female artists, including Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Rihanna."
|
Bill Brotherton of the Boston Herald seconded this notion while reviewing The Truth About Love Tour, saying:
Quote:
|
"It’s hard to imagine that Katy Perry, Rihanna and even Gaga would have achieved superstar status without 33-year-old Alecia Moore leading the way."
|
British soul singer Adele considers Pink's performance at Brixton Academy in London as one of "the most defining moments" in her life, saying
Quote:
|
"It was the Missundaztood record, so I was about 13 or 14. I had never heard, being in the room, someone sing like that live. I remember sort of feeling like I was in a wind tunnel, her voice just hitting me. It was incredible."
|
On American Idol's 12th season, "Just Give Me a Reason", "Try", and "****in' Perfect" were all covered by three of the top 4 finalists. Also Michelle Chamuel covered Pink four times on the fourth season of the reality television show The Voice.

LOL
I don't see how Katy Perry, for example, is culturally more relevant than P!nk
P!nk is doing huge tours and everybody knows her, and P!nk never flops. She's just not the average basic girl which is why many people on ATRL think she's not 'iconic' or 'relevant' like their own faves.
Let ATRL know!

You can read it in the OP but don't bother, so you can keep being ignorant on the subject and keep hating
