Enjoyed reading. I wonder about the over use of misogyny which I have always understood to mean “hating women”. Perhaps I’m misreading your intent. I think the suggestion of a resurgence of pop should have included a bit of an historical perspective. Although I am familiar with the artists you mention, I don’t listen to their music. I think there are female pioneers in the music industry that created and paved the way for current artist.

I really enjoyed your article and hearing your perspective.

I have also noticed this. Ironically, the music that stands the test of time and is viewed with the greatest level of respect by future generations is oftentimes what elitists scoff at when it is initially gaining popularity. Many forget that the Beatles were written off a silly boy band, or Madonna as an attention-hungry hack. Those who look down on pop music are missing out on enjoying a unique moment in history that future generations will wish they could have experienced!

I agree! It is an exciting time to be a music fan.
