why?isn't she generic too?her singles until born this way were all with same structure and were safe.not to mention 2 of her biggest hits are typical alco-songs (poker face and jd),bad romance is a typical love song,that sounded excactly like her previous stuff and born this way cheesy barbie girl level song.after bad receptions of btw (among GP) label release another typical gaga song "Judas"
isn't safety,repeatability,alcohol/sex/love themes in a typical manner are defenition of generic?
so why every little monster call Katy Perry and Kesha songs generic?they have much less identical songs
discuss

In the grand scheme of music, they're all (incl. her) technically generic. The key is how to make your genericness sound good or catchy.

agreed

[Shamser]

isn't it true?

[Forevermore]

Because most mainstream artists are generic.

[Belle]

Learn English please.

Because it's an easy insult to throw around when you can't think of a more relevant and accurate criticism for a song. It's an easy way to discredit the work of other artists.

[Siya]

They're annoying. Period.

[Remixed]

This.

And I see Shamser got y'all pressed with a simple question.

We're smart enough to know which artists are generic and which are not.

For example, Madonna and Beyonce's music are not generic (some of them but most of them aren't).

I wouldn't call Bad Romance or Judas generic - for the good (in the first case) or for the bad (in the latter).

[lasersss]

Everybody is Generic besides Jessie J.

And it's not just the Monsters who are calling other artists generic
