HYPENEWS: Clairo's 'self made' indie bedroom pop a facade?

[@ICEVART]

I feel like this nigga jumped on the wagon of the band and tries to make himself look like he know everything before anyone but it's all just research for the video and just cuz her dad markets products and other things doesn't mean she's not self made that's just her head start that's her advantage in the music industry like stop hating cuz your not up there like her boi yo hair look like a dirty mop nigga sounding like a bitch talking shit on a girl when you a grown ass nigga

She’s from my town, Concord Massachusetts. Her father is a very wealthy man with connections that got her where she is. She was given a lot audio equipment and was pampered. Our town has a large underground music scene and she claims that she wasn’t accepted since she was too out there which is bullshit. She’s claiming to be a bedroom pop artist since that all she could make with her equipment, which is obviously not true. Everybody in our town is very mad at her for saying we weren’t supportive of her.

[@BeenjLike]

"Bedroom pop" and "lo-fi pop" are marketing tools, now. You've got to be kidding yourself if you think these rich kids are in that genre for anything other than the money. Look at Frankie Cosmos, for example - she's the poster child of this movement, and she's the heir to millions with celebrity parents. The same thing is happening with the reverb-heavy Mac DeMarco clones, too, like boy pablo. It's happened since the dawn of music, rich kids ride somebody else's wave and get dollar off of it, whilst the innovators get table scraps. Great vid, man!

[@HYPESAGE]

Thank you!

[@Revealingstorm.]

To be fair sometimes those rich kids also make great music but it is an unfair advantage.

[@BeenjLike]

There'll probably be a rising fetishization of the early 00's culture + music, much like how we're seeing trends mirror the 90's now, so probably some guitar-based music that mirrors that era. I can see shoegaze making a comeback and 'soundcloud/sadboy rap' will continue its upward trajectory.

[@BeenjLike]

I thought the early 2010's was more of a dream pop bubble, but I get what you mean. Shoegaze didn't really hit the heights that this whole "bedroom pop" movement has, though, even though excellent shoegaze albums came out (Distressor, mbv, etc). That's a good point on the part geography plays with music. It seems like only certain non-Western albums reach any level of indie fame (Exuma, Fishmans, etc) and Pitchfork pat themselves on the back once a year by reviewing a token Latin American or African music compilation. I hate how all non-Western music is boxed into this "world music" genre, too. At least a lot of Korean and Japanese music is penetrating the West at the moment.

[@saudadevemcorrendo]

Yo I never knew that about Frankie Cosmos but I could tell that was the case with Boy Pablo bc his music isn't that good tbh

[@Dielawn69]

+yesthatisright very true! Sure there are people that actually are trying to copy him but people think he has a patent on 70's inspired groovy (for lack of a better term) guitar parts. Mac wouldn't even act like he made that sound. Not to say he doesn't have his own style.

[@rwsh6536]

You did this in the most wholesome fashion possible. Kudos

[@MagickFlavour]

While I love her music and I'm glad she's getting attention, I honestly can't say I'm surprised. I know amazing musicians and bands that can't crack a million views because they don't have enough connections yet. (Mild High Club for example)

I’ve been following clairo for a min, bro. She even liked my tweet about her last May. I’m deadass a fan but I will say it’s very, very odd how she’s grown so much in such a sort amount of time. Pretty Girl is good but is it really 6 million views in a couple months good? Like honestly... is it? I’ve seen literally no modern artist release a semi decent track & get millions of views in a couple of months or Big interviews & performances with some of the biggest artists out rn... It’s very odd but I’m a fan... I honestly think she’s a plant tho.

[@HYPESAGE]

omg a clairo fan who understood this video? SHOCKING! thanks for enjoying

[@ron3165]

HYPESAGE! LMAOO. I’m actually truly saddened by this because I’ve followed her for quite sometime & her recent success inspired me to keep pushing my music. I just released a 3 Track indie pop EP on SoundCloud (INDEPENDENTLY 😂) & I’ve gotten 21,938 plays in 3 Days & I’m sitting here thinking I’m going to be like clairo & get some magazine features or something because my crap is good & it turns out “allegedly” strings have been pulled for her. smh.

yeah i felt that her jump in views between videos was pretty suspicious, and her "im self made" vibe isnt a real one, like certain other bands (the garden, for example. they cant even hit 1 mil views on some amazing tunes). dont get me wrong, i enjoy some of her songs, but it feels kinda like a huge lie she's pulling on us.

[@kozel3513]

yeah furthermore it gets me irked that she got to play the observatory and some large revenues, taking the place of rightful artists, like some who played camp flog gnaw.

existential existence facts

[@olly9685]

similar thing with Frankie Cosmos. her parents are wealthy actors, but she talks as if she's a struggling artist.

[@ffa1bc]

Her videos can't even go past eight hundred K of views, and she's been releasing music since like eight years. Clairo got 7.6 million views on her first? track, and probably a few other millions of plays in Facebook and other social media. Frankie's not at fault for being the daughter of two wealthy actors. You don't see her music being shilled everywhere. Case different with Clairo. Shit, even almost every member of the Strokes has a wealthy background, and their music was shilled as fuck in the 2000s, but you don't see people pointing fingers at them.

[@roundandround229]

Nakamura. While it’s true that Julian and Albert had rich fathers, the rest were not wealthy on that stand-point. Julian had a horrible relationship with his father and had to work as a bartender. Albert’s father helped them out with equipment, but they never went to him for the stuff. Julian persuaded models to go to their shows so they could have an audience to spread the word - so I think that’s where it started. They played at dive bars, and such. The Strokes actually held a lot of talent though, and knew how to market themselves.

[@ffa1bc]

Bamboo Latte While I don't discuss the point of their relationship, and whether it was good or bad, I do discuss about a link being there. Whether Julian's father influence was used is something we can't confirm or disregard. Of course they were absolutely hyped by music magazines and reviewers though. While I'm not a huge fan of Cosmos, my point is that people have huge double standards regarding musicians. Whether Cosmo's or Julian's strings to their families were used, then again, it's something you won't know (unlike Clairo *cough*), people will inmediatly jump into anything they don't like, and find any mediocre excuse to justify that attitude, even when The Strokes, thanks to their marketing, were shilled even way more than Clairo will ever be, obviously making the assumption that's a bad thing.

[@roundandround229]

Nakamura. I honestly don’t see Clairo surviving as an artist, because she’s as bland as they come. There’s an influx of indie artists right now, and she doesn’t stick out at all. Especially with how boring and bad her live shows are.

Been waiting on this video! Great coverage, Sage! Truly a fan of this channel. I’ve been a fan of Clairo since her early bandcamp days and although I’ve been happy to see her succeed, I have been scratching my head on how rapid her fame has been coming since she pretty much only has about 2 big “mainstream” songs. After finding out this info, it’s had me torn whether to like her or not because of the honesty of her “indie” come up, it just feels deceitful for some reason.

[@sophiaherran]

dude this is so true! inner wave, banes world, etc. have been making insane & unique music for years and they don’t have nearly as much popularity [that they deserve] as clairo in a few months. i’ve always been a little skeptical of her success but i’ll still support her nonetheless

[@WhoCaresAlisha]

If you read the video description for Pretty Girl, she says it's a collaboration she did with a record company for charity. My guess is either the record company or Clairo/her father paid to promote the video. I also noticed that Bubblegum was re-uploaded to a random KZbin channel and had close to 900k views before pretty girl was uploaded which probably contributed to her "blowing up". I do really like her and I hope to see what's to come.

[@mangocup5322]

her music is okay it's not my cup of tea (i like her covers and bubblegum tho) but she isn't that unique or is bringing anything new to the table in my opinion. there's other more hardworking artist than her that worked years for their recognition. i'm fine with her making music but she should just be honest.

She was literally using an aux cord to conduct her entire set. I was questioning why would she didn't have the numerous crew members just control the music for her so she could focus on having a great set. I think she did it on purpose to perpetuate her image of being self made and independent. She made her set shitty even though the venue had a whole team of people that could have helped her.

I never liked her music much nor her bland singing, people are only going goo goo gaga over her because she's 'cute' or whatever. That's just my take on it, but hey, good for her that she's doing well. I just don't see her as anything special as far as her music go....... and she can't make tracks longer than 2 minutes and with horrible sound quality. But I suppose that's the 'hipster' thing to do these days.

[@jessie3834]

Tony Kart Racer agree

[@OldFantasy]

You literally hit the nail on the coffin honestly I'm glad that I come back every time to these comment sections to makes me feel related when I had an unpopular opinion that every body could bashing me for it

[@arhvn]

i love her music, but i think it's important for any clairo fan to watch this video. i wish she'd just own up to this because it would make everything a lot easier for everyone

[@Roro-rg9mf]

[@hanawana]

Extremely valid points. The manner in which you presented this was brilliant.

[@YetAnotherWeebTrash]

What a bummer, I was really getting into Clairo :/ I still love some of her songs, I just don't think I can appreciate her as an artist anymore with all that " u can do it! Yayy!" BS.

[@Caleborate]

I appreciate how you just told the story and withheld judgment. Respect. I still enjoy clairos artistry a lot! I just want authenticity

[@katiemedland1804]

aye you got mac in da back AYE DAT RHYMES TOO

[@wffwffw]

crazy how you didnt mention how she ripped off charles.

[@GraveyardAbby]

Isn't this the same exact thing with Lana Del Rey and some rapper? Worked well for her too!

[@daredevilMurdock-cp5ox]

great investigation bro im really amazed about clairo conections, hope she earned this success

[@realgnometruther4906]

It was round 2010, me and “Clairo” as you call her were making a living forging prescriptions and flipping the meds, selling them to upstate rich art college kids with fake depression and not enough skill to make their own forgeries. On the side me and Clairo made dreamy Lo fi bedroom pop, and for a while there everything was pretty good. I wanted to take the sound to something a bit more unique, like post punk eurobeat fusion or eurobeat trap fuck I love eurobeat, but Clairo wanted to keep the fake depressed low effort tumblr-esque “Daddy buy me a diy aesthetic” sound. We came to violence over these arguments and at the crux of this Clairo decided to snitch on our whole operation and abscond with the money, and all of the copies of the music. This fucker finessed me out of all my fucking money and all the music we created. I hardly got out of there before the many pharmaceutical company operatives burnt down our low rent scummy appartment. For the past 7 years I have been training and making badly put together lo fi hip hop beats for 24/7 anime streams on KZbin to play and subsequently for XXXtentacion to rap over. If I ever do see that fucking snake I will fucking end her I swear to god I will demolish her in armed and unarmed combat I will put her in a fucking casket 6 feet under

[@ggoat5883]

What. The. Fuck. Hahahahhahaha

[@realgnometruther4906]

G Goat spread the word Clairo exposed right here

[@OHHnoYOUdidntMAN]

“Daddy buy me a diy aesthetic” hahahhaahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahah

[@jacksonfarley6744]

[@lutherblunts8723]

GOOD SHIT BROTHER. I LOVE HOW YOU USE YOUR VOICE FOR US FANS/PEOPLE

[@vivalafranco8338]

Well even if I’m never gonna make it I’m still gonna try boiii

[@bethotted]

i found out about pretty girl yesterday and i was amazed after checking out her channel, since i saw that she was on tour and could even go to coachella... i was wondering just how exactly could this (honestly quite cute) girl be singing a self-made song in her bedroom one day, and then perform on stage at coachella the next. im glad to finally find out the answer just now, but at the same time im kinda sad that its highly possible shes not as independent and genuine as she appears to be. i thought i had found a rare, wholesome gem in the vast sea of retro 80s or 90s type music artists. but i still like her music. the only thing thats slightly changed is my view on clairo as a person.

[@foxycreole1128]

Tea is pretty hot ♨️☕☕☕☕☕🍵

[@huh5007]

I knew something seemed off about Clairo the first time I watched "Pretty Girl". Her sound is super generic imo so I figured she exploded with popularity because of her looks and aesthetic. It's interesting knowing that there's so much more to it.

[@andrespepper869]

after so many years, and recently with his latest release (blouse), do you think his sound is still generic?

[@jcook8387]

So happy to see this video after our discussion on the live stream! Speaking real words, ultra woke

[@Wolf-bp5hd]

It goes so much deeper. Hence the freemason checker pattern at 7:30. (Watch atlian child's expose).
