Vocaloid is software for synthesizing vocals for music. it’s a pre-AI thing so the results are robotic and uncanny but it works best for Japanese vocals. it’s what they use to give a voice to the virtual pop-star Hatsune Miku

Yeah there’s indie rappers like Immortal Technique and Lupe Fiasco and others who will rap about how fucked up the recording industry is.

Same with pop. Look at Britney.

Grimes is not that big, each show probably only sells 65000 worth of tickets at most (taking 50 average price * 1300 capacity) and that’s before all operating costs to venue, her entire tour team, and her label

Paying a lot for memorabilia is nothing new

This is just meme-orabilia

“I Saw Elon Musk’s Penis Multiple Times”

Azealia Banks already leaked DMs from Grimes surrounding Elon’s penis (warning: traumatizing):
