this concept of "selling out" is a joke. you kids don't know what you're talking about. it's called "having a career".

Its called marketing to the masses, or selling out.

so, in that case, if a small-town attorney who's REALLY REALLY good at practicing law is picked up by a large firm in a large city and chooses to work with them to make more money and be involved in law on a much larger scale, that's "selling out"?

nice try. next!

Oh God you're ignorant. How does getting a promotion compare to changing oneself to market to the masses.

changing one's self happens on a daily basis- i'm nowhere near the kid i was four, five years ago. and i can honestly say i've done a lot to change my image to promote my DJing. just as execs put on suits to impress others as being "professional", entertainers change their image to appeal to the audience they're trying to attract. it's done in EVERY line of work.

You can live in your little bubble, and call changing oneself to impress others "a career" whereas I will stay in mine and call it selling out, but more importantly..marketing.

and you can live in your little bubble and believe that "selling out" is anything more than a term created by those jealous they aren't able to accomplish such a level of success.

Can you not hold true to your values, while gaining your prized "success?" Why should we have to lose the values to accomplish anything? Is that really what you are trying to say here?

Your not really making any points there hombre. You can not argue that what she is doing is not solely for the purpose of marketing herself to the masses. Yes, she may be making a living from this, but thats the end, not the action.

and who are you to say that the image we see today isn't truly what she wants the world to see of her?

it blows my mind that we're surrounded by commercialism, yet musicians who become pop stars are "sell outs"... right.... they're just better at marketing themselves than you, but that's not "selling out".

this is probably the first time i've ever agreed with you. I would take shit from a bunch of 15 year olds for "selling out" if it meant millions of dollars in my bank. besides, who'd she sell out to? I doubt she had many fans.

Anyone with a mind can clearly see that thats not how she wants to be perceived. She does this to because she knows it will sell, every move she makes is calculated.

Now listen okay, when an artist changes oneself once they become a "pop star" they are selling out. Many artists don't sell out however, Kid cudi has not sold out (yet.) Hes still saying the same lines he was before Day n Nite. He didn't go out and get dressed up in some freaky as shit and act like he has a vagina. Gaga, however did.

But really kid, why are you now taking my arguments, agreeing with them, then arguing back. Earlier you felt it wasn't marketing. You felt it was a "career."

But Im done, because well I don't really give a fuck about a troll who is just trying to raise their post count. Go back to ladies men if thats all your going to do.



ALSO. Why the fuck are you trying to back lady gaga?

on second thought, maybe i don't agree with you.. if she's not making the music she wants to make, then yes it could be called selling out. but if she enjoys making the music she does, than all the more power to her and her penor.

i know exactly what you're saying. why wouldnt she want to be famous and have her music heard across the whole globe? isnt that the whole idea? just like making it pro as a skier? actually, you know what, im sure if she could do it again she would just keep playing low paying gigs in shitty bars, just so people (who obviously aren't in the same level as her) won't call her a 'sell out'. its funny to watch kids call something thats popular, talentless and say the artist sold out. if you were in the same situation, and someone wanted to sign you and market you around the world (not to mention all the money you'd get), would you say "fuck you and your record label, i'm no sell out!"?...didn't think so, kids.

completely different... selling out is when a musician or whatever changes their art so that it will be in accordance with what the masses want. and if your willing to do that, most of the time, it means you were in it for all the wrong reasons. This is why most good music comes from artists who did not sell out, as they are in it for all the right reasons (their art, not exclusively money). Assuming your logic that only the REALLY REALLY good musicians sell out, please enlighten on your taste in music.

so according to you, success is measured solely on how much money you make. I would consider a real artist like Brother Ali way more successful than Lady Gaga, even though she probably  makes 100x as much as he does. I think selling out is when you put money over the quality of the content you distribute. The bills you make is no reflection of how well you are doing in life, which is what I call success.

You know I could claim that this isnt my first user name, and that i had one from at least 2 years before this, but whats the point. Even though its true.


What I find sad is that you know I am right, but wont be mature enough to answer the question so you divert to personal attacks. Also while were at the personal attacks, do you know what this was like 10 years gago? Because Im pretty sure your member number would have to be 1-10 for that to happen. But the real question is why the fuck are you still here if you have been on since '99. Shouldn't you be out in the real world growing up? Not arguing with teenagers on an online forum about an artist in which you have no relation too?


And thanks seward, I like you too.

Nope.
I am grown up. I sold out to CTV News and became a television news anchor. I bring atlantic canada their dinner hour news nightly. As for being number 1-10. That's completely wrong.
Look at my profile if you would like to verify my member info.
And no - I don't think you are right on the "proverbial sellout argument"...and I.especially don't like the part about growing up and hitting the real world. I disagree because unlike yourself....I don't think you have to quit skiing once you turn 30....and I continue to support newschoolers that many years later.
Im not fighting with a teenager online. Im sending you lots of love, and no personal attacks here..Just a HUGE difference of oppinion. So stop.

I said in order for you to have been a member in '99 you would of had to be the first member. I never said you had to stop skiing, I said when I'm 30 my life will have more purpose than to troll online forums. But I guess when your career is to gossip, you probably have as strong of a purpose as the rest of the high school girls.

Low blow...yeah

 You totally need to stop man, why can't someone who is "grown up" in life support a ski website and for the same matter play video games or do what ever the fuck they want. My dad is a very successful person in life and manages multiple grain elevators in southern minnesota pulls in about 120k a year. He loves to "troll" online forums about cars and the NFL. Right now I can see you living a very one dimensional life and being a stressed out person. I think you need to step back and chill. And what the fuck is with the last part of your text, thats stupid so many chicks have way more purpose or i should say ambitions than guys. Have fun living alone in a duplex with mexicans next door.

Difference between a car forum and and NFL forum and NS... they probably have more to say than what size tall tee should I get? They probably know more about life than xxxl and lil wayne. And not once did I say her being a female had any correlation to her purpose in life. Now, if you really feel that high school girls have more purpose and ambitions than I do, well I guess I can't do much besides pity you.

But nice work on the racist joke, really added that umph to your arguement!

After hearing that, tell me that she didn't change her sound in order to sell more music...a.k.a. selling out. Selling NS was a business opportunity, they did not change the site in order to sell it. You're wrong. Next.
