Normally celebs jump at the chance to virtue signal, but i think when it comes to Diddy they're staying silent because they know the moment they say something disapproving of him he'll bring up their name and what they did with him at his parties.

Why would a parent want their child to do something noble like create Art and make millions in the process...Yeah what parent would want their kids to be AWESOME....weird
Because the same way we have predators we will always have people willing to provide access in return of favors (money, attention, vanity, narcisistic suplly). It's sad, but mean people also become parents
Parents, in general, can be stupid. I tutor children and constantly refuse to work with some parents when they just leave me with their child. Yeah, I'm safe and have a piece of paper from the police that says I am not a criminal, but as a parent that should NOT be enough to secure your mind that a stranger from the internet is safe to be unsupervised with their children. I can't respect it, and I won't deal with it.
@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu there are millions of places you can make art in any country and in any city. If you WANT your kid to go to Hollywood at this point, you’re on the opposite end of the nobility spectrum. Independent projects on youtube or spotify can bring you millions and probably in a more successfully than Hollywood does nowadays. Hollywood is an unnecessary cesspool of drugs and molestation, and ironically, over sensitivity to things that actually matter. So yeah let your kid do that and see what will ACTUALLY happen to your kid. The first person theyll get greeted by at a coffee shop will be someone trying to take advantage of them or get them into porn
I loved acting and singing when I was young. I told my parents I wanted to move to California and pursue an acting career. They straight up told me I’d lose my soul. I thought they were being dramatic, but I respected their thoughts and when they begged me not to, I stayed. Hindsight is 20/20. So grateful to have parents who weren’t afraid to kill a naive and misled dream. Bless them 🙌🏽
A pastor who took over a church my dad retired from said his daughter wrote Ann Davis the actress who played Alice.in the Brady Bunch the first year that TV show began airing was 1969. And answered her letter asking how difficult it would be for her to go to Hollywood and see about getting in a TV show like this to star in. Emerald back to her and told her my dearest little fan, you wrote that your dad was a pastor of a church. Do not come to Hollywood do not come to New York thinking you're going to make it on the big screen or on the stage. She said if you come to Hollywood you will be destroyed is the one thing that's 100% day in day out always going on is girls coming here thinking they're going to make it rich and then they wind up being slaves of people and they are put through the worst things that human beings could ever have gone through. Now I remember when the pastor was talking about that and it reminded me of the things that my grandparents told us about why they didn't like things like movies or Hollywood. And I would sort of roll my eyes thinking you guys just think everything that's not inside of a church is evil. Now I've come to a point to say that I was the one who was wrong. My grandparents on both sides were 100% correct. And for those who might not think that so you haven't been paying attention to what's going on. Unfortunately.
@@brianaguilar8283 I was a teacher for five years, now I’m a stay at home mom. I love my life and don’t regret the path I took at all. God led me here 🙌🏽 I sing to my children and write music for my family. I still use my talents, just not how I thought I would.
Before social media these actors could at least still have mega fame, now it's all the downsides without the relevance. If video killed the radio star social media killed the movie star since its so obvious how vapid they are.
Not killed your dream, I’d say they protected it. If you still have the desire to act and sing right now you can do so on yt/social media, independently. If you had gone to Hollywood as a child, the BEST thing that could’ve happened would be if you were constantly rejected and never “made it”, which might’ve actually killed your dream as a sensitive child. (The worst thing to happen being of course to end up as a child sacrifice like the people in this video and the countless others who we don’t know their names.)
This is the best summary of hedonist culture I've come across-especially the line, "a lot of life's meaning is lost in the maelstrom of non-stop pleasure." It's such a universal truth. This isn't just an issue for celebrities; it's something we all face at some point-a crossroads between chasing self-gratifying pleasure and striving for a deeper, more meaningful life
Epicurus was an actual philosopher of hedonism, carefully weighing different pleasures and discarding many as a net negative. For example, noting that hunger makes food taste better while gluttony makes you feel bloated and sick, he tended to advocate eating far less, because then you would have upside and not downside. Likewise he acknowledged the pleasure of good friends, but noted that most other people were hit and miss, and so to maximize pleasure he wanted (and did!) withdraw to an isolated compound with ONLY friends. He actually didn't do too bad, even as a completely shameless hedonist. Maybe the real problem with have with hedonists nowadays is not that they're hedonists... it's that they're STUPID hedonists.
I don't think we should 'hate' celebs, because that gives them our power and energy, but I think they should be disregarded. I never saw them anything more as actors and entertainers, very overpaid for what they do. Some people are very in awe of fame, and it's weird. I remember a friend of mine saw a singer he liked in public, (I wouldn't even call her a celebrity, honestly) and he was gushing and trying to figure out how to react. My reaction was just "leave her alone, she's at the bookstore." But it wouldn't matter to me if it had been Tom Cruise. I'd be "Oh, that's Tom Cruise in the bookstore."
This has bewildered me as a child that people would drop everything just to shake celebrities' hands or something. Maybe now that they've shown their asses on socials will people understand how fake they are?
I don't understand fawning over celebrities, because I don't have the slightest clue what I would have in common with them. The most I could say is just that I appreciate their work. Otherwise, what, am I gonna' hang out with them and talk about old monster movies? I can't imagine it.
i feel the same. centuries ago , the entertainer class of people were at the bottom , the level or prostitutes almost since they would prostitute themselves to the richest viewers who sponsor the work. they do the same today.
I was totally had by that AI Diddy Party song too! Yummy ACTUALLY by Justin Beiber tells you everything he thinks about the industry in a much less literal way. I don’t think he will ever release music again, massive shame but understandable x
You are so correct. And everybody should hear Brett Cooper speak about her experience in Hollywood, and how her mother fiercely protected her and made her strong enough to say ano"and back it up.
This is what ive been saying for years. All the people saying "eat the rich" are the same people worshipping celebs, standing up for them, shilling for them and lining their pockets. If we really want to see the end of celebrity we need to stop giving them money and quit acting like theyre gods.
@@jurgenstrohm3427hey could you explain the corey feldman thing for me? i tried googling it but i couldn’t really find anything that talks about him in any way other than him being a victim… what am i missing?? lol i’m asking genuinely.
There's a great line from the 1983 film _Rumble Fish:_ "California's like a beautiful wild girl on heroin who's high as a kite, thinking she's on top of the world, not knowing she's dying even if you show her the marks." That's celebrity culture.
This isn't just a celebrity problem, when regular people get molested they're ignored and neglected just the same And a lot of times regular people get blamed for their assault too so it's not just a Hollywood thing
My respect for the whistleblowers is limited or rather, selective. As there are many who have only called the bad behaviour out once they’re at a safe distance. I have the utmost respect for those who call it out from day one even at the detriment of their careers and lives. John Lyndon aka Johnny Rotten for example has been talking about Jimmy Saville and the BBC’s covering up of his behaviour for decades and only now in his old age has he been vindicated.
4:08 the worse part is so many journalists, people of power, virtue signalers who love to PREACH are silent. Also, what happened to Rachel, she loved to diss on Snow White but silent on this.
We as regulars also have to change our language and stop referring to rich and famous people as those who “made it” because naturally it leaves us thinking/feeling that those things are the ultimate accomplishments.
I appreciate your optimism about people trending towards positive values instead of worshiping celebrity. I'm more cynical, but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't like for that to be true.
“They’ve stolen billions and continue to rake in millions daily through music royalties, crediting themselves while cutting out the one who actually came up with the idea and wrote the melodies for the main synth.
Except Hollywood is CONSTANTLY producing MASTERPIECES OF ART that if you have a heart and a soul can profoundly effect you and open your heart and mind and help you understand your connection to humanity period.
@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu Hollywood is garbage at best nowadays. Political, terribly written, pandering. We have to rely on true artists like Christopher Nolan or Denis Villeneuve to expect something good out of Hollywood
@@kennyg1358 As a sampling from "Critical Drinker" or similar 'reviewers' would substantiate. As for "entertainment", I know I'm old but my son was playing rap music (loudly) in the car picking me up from the airport, and I was truly horrified the longer I listened. Even the more melodic "songs" sampled older MoTown artists at the start and then lapsed into obscenity & racism.
One thing that really says a lot about the celebs is that nobody was really shocked by the P Diddy story. You can describe the public reaction like "oh wow, so whose ass got caught this time?"
Each video from baggage claim Is so important. The concise sentiments and observations Cut through to the bone! This is the best example of the futility Of celebrity. Thank you!
Let's include sports stars, too. Domestic violence, infidelity, animal abuse, drug abuse, excessive lifestyles . . . Paid $multi-millions and defended by adoring fans (even those who can't afford to attend live games anymore b/c player salaries make tickets prices are too high)
For all of Hollywood to be so anti that particular celeb then i guess he's not that much of a celebrity... If hollyweird is anti somebody then yay for that person.
For as long their has been human history, the idea of putting people with talent (and no talent) on a pedestal is nothing new. It nearly always ends up in corruption and broken lives.
The first kings were priests; their closest followers were priestesses; the way they were told to 'praise the gods' was by banging the priest/king. Literally since the beginning of humanity.
Can't happen quickly enough. Romans treated actors and actresses as, socially speaking, a half-step up from prostitutes...because they are. Or...maybe a quarter-step.
Isn't 'lost myself at a Diddy party' AI generated? I'm not questioning what JB went through with Diddy, but that song seems AI generated. The era of misinformation!
Just because someone sings a song well, or acts in a great movie doesn't mean they know more about life/politics/whatever than you do, they just have more money than we do. Why people follow influencers baffles me, just be you, learn about life for yourself.
For me, it has always been this simple: MY MONEY, YOUR ENTERTAINMENT. That's it and that's all. Sadly, most people often confuse talent/craft excellence for actual intelligence or wisdom and act shocked when they say or do hopelessly stupid, moronic and morally repugnant things. Personally, I don't care to know any celebrity or what they do/think/feel outside their work (even those whose work I admire).
In the last 10 years, when I started majoring in an entertainment field, Hollywood was more closely like Pleasure Island, a bunch of bratty individuals who have a reckless refused of others finding entertainment in being mischievous, to end up as jackass to be a workforce system to help mine the salt. All for pleasure.
My only concern is that fame, like other forms of power, is something someone will have to hold. In the end, it comes down to what we are going to venerate (and in the modern age, focus the camera on). In my estimation, that should go to those who perform acts of real-life heroism and charity, be it notable soldiers, firefighters, cops, doctors, etc. Fame turns normal people, for lack of a better term, into living archetypes, and I'd rather people give their attention to ones that honor actual principles and virtues rather than those who treat fame as a thing in and of itself to desire.
Great video. Just a quick correction, though - the Bieber Diddy Party song isn't real, it's AI. He hasn't said a thing about his relationship with Diddy, but I just hope that he's healing from whatever that monster did to him.
If your brand was based on people having positive feelings when they see you, then it would be hard to report someone. People couldn't help but think of you through that lens and they wouldn't buy your films or music out of pity. Before you get to blackballing, you have the problem of having worked for years to achieve a dream and any attempt at justice resulting in you ending your career, losing your privacy around something nightmarishly private, and being an internet punchline. If people don't like thinking about abuse, then they aren't going to like thinking about you.
The Justin Bieber song you mentioned “I Lost Myself At a Diddy Party” was an AI song. Biebz didn’t write or perform that song. It was someone on the internet but I would say look into the YUMMY video & the symbolism many people discussed in videos on YT
In my country, a small country we still have a lot of celebrities that are just good social people. Don't hate people, don't hate celebrities. Just understand that they have constructed an image, you should ignore their morality rants. And let them face justice when they do wrong. But don't go and hate them, that is not good.
In September 1997 the music industry changed forever. Auto-tune was introduced in that month. Before Autotune whatever tune you heard on the radio or on stage was actually sung by someone. Maybe it took them one take, maybe it took them 100 takes. But every tune sang came from a person, they were capable of singing. Notice how after Autotune was introduced the talentless Disney starlets were pushed to the big public. It's when boybands were cast to be presented as heart throbs. More than ever, the next music star was cast. It was irrelevant is a singer could hold a tune or even sing a tune. It was all fixed in the studio by a sound engineer. Before the internet there was a lot of power in the PR agent and publicist. They determined which songs would get airplay and as such who would be a star. There were like five radio stations and the PR agents just needed to be friends with those five stations. The publicists were the starmakers. After autotune, the music people turned into starmakers. They got that power. And Diddy grabbed and utilised that power. Cassie is a bad but very hot singer and that did earn her a hit song with Me & U. In the years after autotune we've only had one excellent vocalist. Adele is the only one. The other music 'superstars' can not sing. They're bad singers. It's why rock bands from the 1970s can still draw massive audiences. They're the real deal. After autotune the popstars looked better on posters, but the songs have gone shit. Karen Carpenter was a moderately pretty woman and despite having the best female voice in music (I don't care if you agree, she does), you just know she wouldn't have been a star in the post-autotune era. Music isn't about talent anymore. And that's where power hungry twats like Diddy come in to grab power and wield it over others to pleasure their fetishes.
The real thing I've found lately is looking for covers here on TH-cam or on spotify. Some have millions of views, some only a few. Some are bad, some are good and some absolutely blow the original out of the water. Or turn it into something entirely else but still amazing.
Around that same time it became a popularity contest too. Didn't really matter if you could sing, just if you were good looking. Same thing happened with actors. Now we're two generations separated from talent and the rot is showing, but the ones who caused it aren't around anymore and the ones that are left somehow don't realize what's wrong.
@@sayLeotardbutsayitChinese Yup. My point is I think autotune is the reason music became a popularity and beauty contest. It's why music is on the decline and it's why the sexual deviancy has gotten worse. Pop stars have always been under a lot of scrutiny. The aforementioned Karen Carpenter died from anorexia because some Rolling Stone magazine writer called her chubby when she wasn't, which killed her self image. But in the past even knobheads like that pop music writer relied on actual talent. A&R folk and head honchos of labels now feel they can fabricate the next popstar. And they had a casting couch. I feel this all would have been a lot harder without autotune. Britney Spears can't hold a tune to save her life, but she looked great on a poster so she was pushed as a pop sensation, all thanks to autotune. All she had to do was fuck a bunch of horny execs on her way to the top. That's the 'selling my soul to the devil' part I think is still very much alive in pop music.
I'm still grateful, for all its many flaws and faults, that we had the 60s-90s in music. Whatever those people were, they were real talent, and most of all real passion. They wrote for themselves, sang for themselves,came out on stage without elaborate choreographies, they might be pissing Jack Daniels and breathing coke and being one hit away from a breakdown or an OD', but they were capable to hole up in four walls for a month and come out with masterpieces. Now the excess lost even that charm that it had when it was impulsive and youthful, and it became just a constant devolution in the breaks between packaging and promoting product. Authenticity still exists, but it will never become mainstream again.
Yesterday I preached a sermon noting how John the Baptist in John 1:18 ff wouldn't focus on himself. I also noted that this is a lesson we need in our celebrity/affirmation driven culture.
Well said, I have never understood the Idol and blindly following thing, I can like the performance of the individual but I have never seen how such folks can influence others. Thinking that just because someone can read lines, act or sing a great song can automatically grant them a higher understanding beyond average folks is just delusional.
For me is more indifference with some bits of irritations, because I don't hate them. But they, as many others, they are really living in an alternate world for me to be able to like them.
That's why when Trump won and Hollywood actresses started saying "the safety of women is at risk" and I was like "now you aholes care about the safety of women" while they ignored countless women being abused.

The silence of virtually everyone in movies, music, politics and influencers in regards to Diddy, especially by his "close friends", speaks volumes.

Ricky Gervais tried to warn them. They didn't listen.
I hate everything about celebrity culture and how much people care about it. The only thing that gives them power is our attention. Great video!
My respect for the whistleblowers is limited or rather, selective. As there are many who have only called the bad behaviour out once they’re at a safe distance. I have the utmost respect for those who call it out from day one even at the detriment of their careers and lives. John Lyndon aka Johnny Rotten for example has been talking about Jimmy Saville and the BBC’s covering up of his behaviour for decades and only now in his old age has he been vindicated.
Johnny Rotten called out Saville and the BBC during a BBC interview and it was not aired.
I see a baggage claim video - i click faster than i can read the title
Same 😂
Me too, she needs to do more, also start posting them on her Instagram 😊
Diddo!
Likewise
9:14 the nerve of him saying that the world is toxic when he is most definitely TOXIC AS HELL.
It took... a century, but it's happening. Thank God.
You’re right. This filth has been going on from day one in the entertainment industry.
At last, Diddywood and its corruption is getting exposed. Thanks again, Kat Williams!
amen.
4:08 the worse part is so many journalists, people of power, virtue signalers who love to PREACH are silent. Also, what happened to Rachel, she loved to diss on Snow White but silent on this.
2:50 That's an AI-created song, not a real Bieber song.
That’s what I was just about to say. Folks genuinely think that song is really from him. That’s how bad AI has gotten.
@@JcgLounge technically wouldn't be how "good" AI models have gotten?
I really like this approach, Baggie. There is just not enough anger. Outrage, yes, but it's more of a dumbfounded quality. We need to rage.
We as regulars also have to change our language and stop referring to rich and famous people as those who “made it” because naturally it leaves us thinking/feeling that those things are the ultimate accomplishments.
I appreciate your optimism about people trending towards positive values instead of worshiping celebrity. I'm more cynical, but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't like for that to be true.
100% spit on - As usual! Thank you, Baggage Claim! Love from El Paso, Texas
Celebrity means one who is celebrated. Celebrate people you actually know. That's all we have to do. Simplicity is the end result of complexity. ❤
Katt Williams said it was all gonna come out in 2024.
He was right. The beginning of the end.
The only celebrities I don't hate are Weird Al and Keanu Reeves. I've never heard a bad word about either of them.
I thought that the song 'I lost myself at a Diddy party' was made by AI🤔
That song was AI, the diddy party song was AI. He was for sure abused but using that as a reference drops the quality of the video
“They’ve stolen billions and continue to rake in millions daily through music royalties, crediting themselves while cutting out the one who actually came up with the idea and wrote the melodies for the main synth.
let’s face it,the best thing to come out of Hollywood nowadays is the road out of it.
Except Hollywood is CONSTANTLY producing MASTERPIECES OF ART that if you have a heart and a soul can profoundly effect you and open your heart and mind and help you understand your connection to humanity period.
"nowadays" always has been
@ChrisSmith-tu9bu constant masterpieces? Exceedingly rare are at best.
@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu
Hollywood is garbage at best nowadays. Political, terribly written, pandering.
We have to rely on true artists like Christopher Nolan or Denis Villeneuve to expect something good out of Hollywood
@@kennyg1358 As a sampling from "Critical Drinker" or similar 'reviewers' would substantiate.
As for "entertainment", I know I'm old but my son was playing rap music (loudly) in the car picking me up from the airport, and I was truly horrified the longer I listened.
Even the more melodic "songs" sampled older MoTown artists at the start and then lapsed into obscenity & racism.
One thing that really says a lot about the celebs is that nobody was really shocked by the P Diddy story. You can describe the public reaction like "oh wow, so whose ass got caught this time?"
Each video from baggage claim
Is so important.
The concise sentiments and observations
Cut through to the bone!
This is the best example of the futility
Of celebrity.
Thank you!
Great video! I loathe all of these so called celebrities with a passion, whether singer or actor. Odious oiks, all of them 👍🏴🇬🇧
Let's include sports stars, too. Domestic violence, infidelity, animal abuse, drug abuse, excessive lifestyles . . . Paid $multi-millions and defended by adoring fans (even those who can't afford to attend live games anymore b/c player salaries make tickets prices are too high)
I mean, I just searched for the "I lost myself..." song, it's not Justin's, it's AI generated
I've never seen the obsession that some people have over celebrities. Desperate to meet them, get a picture taken with them or get an autograph.
@2:50 it’s an AI song 😅
Yes thank you Captain Obvious
@@twoinchtapeYeah, well it apparently wasn't obvious to the person who made this video so clearly it was worth pointing out.
Never heard of your channel and I just started the video but liked and subbed for that title alone. Preach.
So many people who detest celebrities don’t realize a celebrity was just elected president.
Again.
For all of Hollywood to be so anti that particular celeb then i guess he's not that much of a celebrity... If hollyweird is anti somebody then yay for that person.
I absolutely love this channel. You are a rarity these days. This stuff needs to be said. Job well done 👍
For as long their has been human history, the idea of putting people with talent (and no talent) on a pedestal is nothing new. It nearly always ends up in corruption and broken lives.
The first kings were priests; their closest followers were priestesses; the way they were told to 'praise the gods' was by banging the priest/king.
Literally since the beginning of humanity.
"Anyone who has it made is one step away from becoming a has been"
Many celebrities are quickly crossing that line
Can't happen quickly enough.
Romans treated actors and actresses as, socially speaking, a half-step up from prostitutes...because they are. Or...maybe a quarter-step.
Sorry so late on leaving a comment.
My goodness, once again you're spot on!!! Keep up the good work.
Baggage Claim is one of the BEST TH-cam channels. 👍
from one indian to another: girl, you make me so proud! i hope to become wellspoken and brave like you! you are doing great!
"Lost Myself At A Diddy Party" song was actually created by A.I. it's not an official track by Justin Bieber.
1:11 Her co-star wrote a book called "I'm Glad My Mom Died." Everyone should read it.

I know someone already said this in a comment but “Lost Myself at a Diddy Party” is ai…
Someone? Try like 195 ppl have already said that.
Isn't 'lost myself at a Diddy party' AI generated? I'm not questioning what JB went through with Diddy, but that song seems AI generated. The era of misinformation!
Just because someone sings a song well, or acts in a great movie doesn't mean they know more about life/politics/whatever than you do, they just have more money than we do. Why people follow influencers baffles me, just be you, learn about life for yourself.
Great stuff as ever. Thank BC.
Time to bring a good old Ancient Rome treatment back
Ave Caesar
WELL DONE! & Well SAID! Pretending is all they can do, and we give them money, for nothing....
There has never been a more accurate video title.
We all used to laugh at Justin Bieber, we all owe him an apology now. He was being abused in public and private and we said nothing
i respect him more since he got into skating scene.
New baggage claim video for Christmas 🎄 ✨️ 🤘🤘
these videos is why I will stay subscribed.
Well said.
It's not just Hollywood. Olympic gymnastic coaches. Boy scout leaders. Clergymen. Hockey coaches, etc
Meanwhile people who work actual jobs and hold society together are underpaid and underappreciated.
The amazing thing to me is that people are surprised by this at all.
For me, it has always been this simple: MY MONEY, YOUR ENTERTAINMENT. That's it and that's all. Sadly, most people often confuse talent/craft excellence for actual intelligence or wisdom and act shocked when they say or do hopelessly stupid, moronic and morally repugnant things. Personally, I don't care to know any celebrity or what they do/think/feel outside their work (even those whose work I admire).
We do t hate rap and hip hop “artists” enough.
So people managed to find success without selling out in some of these extreme ways but the numbers are so small it’s not even worth it.
People like to follow and have "heros" - this will never change. 😢
In the last 10 years, when I started majoring in an entertainment field, Hollywood was more closely like Pleasure Island, a bunch of bratty individuals who have a reckless refused of others finding entertainment in being mischievous, to end up as jackass to be a workforce system to help mine the salt. All for pleasure.
My only concern is that fame, like other forms of power, is something someone will have to hold. In the end, it comes down to what we are going to venerate (and in the modern age, focus the camera on). In my estimation, that should go to those who perform acts of real-life heroism and charity, be it notable soldiers, firefighters, cops, doctors, etc. Fame turns normal people, for lack of a better term, into living archetypes, and I'd rather people give their attention to ones that honor actual principles and virtues rather than those who treat fame as a thing in and of itself to desire.
Impeccable analysis.
here so quick.... yesss
Great video. Just a quick correction, though - the Bieber Diddy Party song isn't real, it's AI.
He hasn't said a thing about his relationship with Diddy, but I just hope that he's healing from whatever that monster did to him.
If your brand was based on people having positive feelings when they see you, then it would be hard to report someone. People couldn't help but think of you through that lens and they wouldn't buy your films or music out of pity. Before you get to blackballing, you have the problem of having worked for years to achieve a dream and any attempt at justice resulting in you ending your career, losing your privacy around something nightmarishly private, and being an internet punchline. If people don't like thinking about abuse, then they aren't going to like thinking about you.
The Justin Bieber song you mentioned “I Lost Myself At a Diddy Party” was an AI song. Biebz didn’t write or perform that song. It was someone on the internet but I would say look into the YUMMY video & the symbolism many people discussed in videos on YT
Pluto in Aquarius. You did it again. 20 years of this.
Katt Williams called it, everyone getting exposed in 2024 and it’s close but the year ain’t over yet
Another fantastic video. I felt this one. Its time to move on from Hollywood
This new naughty dog game is gunna suck
In my country, a small country we still have a lot of celebrities that are just good social people. Don't hate people, don't hate celebrities. Just understand that they have constructed an image, you should ignore their morality rants. And let them face justice when they do wrong. But don't go and hate them, that is not good.
In September 1997 the music industry changed forever. Auto-tune was introduced in that month. Before Autotune whatever tune you heard on the radio or on stage was actually sung by someone. Maybe it took them one take, maybe it took them 100 takes. But every tune sang came from a person, they were capable of singing. Notice how after Autotune was introduced the talentless Disney starlets were pushed to the big public. It's when boybands were cast to be presented as heart throbs. More than ever, the next music star was cast. It was irrelevant is a singer could hold a tune or even sing a tune. It was all fixed in the studio by a sound engineer.
Before the internet there was a lot of power in the PR agent and publicist. They determined which songs would get airplay and as such who would be a star. There were like five radio stations and the PR agents just needed to be friends with those five stations. The publicists were the starmakers. After autotune, the music people turned into starmakers. They got that power. And Diddy grabbed and utilised that power. Cassie is a bad but very hot singer and that did earn her a hit song with Me & U.
In the years after autotune we've only had one excellent vocalist. Adele is the only one. The other music 'superstars' can not sing. They're bad singers. It's why rock bands from the 1970s can still draw massive audiences. They're the real deal. After autotune the popstars looked better on posters, but the songs have gone shit. Karen Carpenter was a moderately pretty woman and despite having the best female voice in music (I don't care if you agree, she does), you just know she wouldn't have been a star in the post-autotune era.
Music isn't about talent anymore. And that's where power hungry twats like Diddy come in to grab power and wield it over others to pleasure their fetishes.
The real thing I've found lately is looking for covers here on TH-cam or on spotify. Some have millions of views, some only a few. Some are bad, some are good and some absolutely blow the original out of the water. Or turn it into something entirely else but still amazing.
Around that same time it became a popularity contest too. Didn't really matter if you could sing, just if you were good looking. Same thing happened with actors. Now we're two generations separated from talent and the rot is showing, but the ones who caused it aren't around anymore and the ones that are left somehow don't realize what's wrong.
@@sayLeotardbutsayitChinese Yup. My point is I think autotune is the reason music became a popularity and beauty contest. It's why music is on the decline and it's why the sexual deviancy has gotten worse.
Pop stars have always been under a lot of scrutiny. The aforementioned Karen Carpenter died from anorexia because some Rolling Stone magazine writer called her chubby when she wasn't, which killed her self image. But in the past even knobheads like that pop music writer relied on actual talent. A&R folk and head honchos of labels now feel they can fabricate the next popstar. And they had a casting couch.
I feel this all would have been a lot harder without autotune. Britney Spears can't hold a tune to save her life, but she looked great on a poster so she was pushed as a pop sensation, all thanks to autotune. All she had to do was fuck a bunch of horny execs on her way to the top. That's the 'selling my soul to the devil' part I think is still very much alive in pop music.
I'm still grateful, for all its many flaws and faults, that we had the 60s-90s in music. Whatever those people were, they were real talent, and most of all real passion. They wrote for themselves, sang for themselves,came out on stage without elaborate choreographies, they might be pissing Jack Daniels and breathing coke and being one hit away from a breakdown or an OD', but they were capable to hole up in four walls for a month and come out with masterpieces. Now the excess lost even that charm that it had when it was impulsive and youthful, and it became just a constant devolution in the breaks between packaging and promoting product. Authenticity still exists, but it will never become mainstream again.
so sad and disgusting, unfortunately this is only scratching the surface
I’m pretty sure the Diddy party song is an AI song
Please talk about lily jay and arianas pattern with homewrecking
A conservative lecturing about idolizing celebrities while she voted for a celebrity the irony 😂😂😂
I don't hate celebs because I don't care about them enough. If we all didn't care, there would be no celebs
Shit, this is the greatest TH-cam video I've ever watched.
"lost myself at a diddy party" is an AI song
"A lot of life's meaning is lost in the maelstrom of nonstop pleasure." That might be that greatest bar of 2025, and the year just started.
Ain't no party like...
Yesterday I preached a sermon noting how John the Baptist in John 1:18 ff wouldn't focus on himself. I also noted that this is a lesson we need in our celebrity/affirmation driven culture.
we must take action, but never hate. hate eats us from within
Love your channel! Thank God we live in a time to see this downfall.
Well said, I have never understood the Idol and blindly following thing, I can like the performance of the individual but I have never seen how such folks can influence others.
Thinking that just because someone can read lines, act or sing a great song can automatically grant them a higher understanding beyond average folks is just delusional.
For me is more indifference with some bits of irritations, because I don't hate them. But they, as many others, they are really living in an alternate world for me to be able to like them.
