Honestly, as someone who used to adore the guy and still considers him an important early influence, I . . . .side-eye him a lot re: AP. He sure as shit doesn't need my approval and whatever makes him happy is what he should do, bar actually hurting people, but I can honestly say it certainly helped to cool me on him.

But then, AP also ran hard and fast into one of my other knee-jerk things, which was sort of early on Declaring Herself Spokeswoman for Alternative-Culture Women/that kind of thing, which will pretty much always get a HOLD ON THERE SUGAR-TITS I DIDN'T SAY YOU COULD SPEAK FOR ME.

So I dunno. I consider her badly behaved, juvenile, egotistic and annoying. She's still got one or two songs I like, because frankly the ability to make good art and the ability to be a good person are not mutually interdependent skills, but eeeeyeah.

Her stunt with the lack-of-pay for musicians also didn't endear her to me. I teach music, and one of the things a good teacher sends their kids out into the world with is "anyone short of, like, David fucking Bowie or U2 or whatever, who offers you a chance to do something for them for free in the name of 'exposure' is swindling you. ALWAYS. GET. PAID."

Yeah, that.

And like -- I just went to her website and listened to her new song and just -- that whole manic pixie thing is just -- I don't like the tempo. Which doesn't mean it's bad art, it just doesn't work for me. And I thought the lyrics seemed pretty juvenile. Like

but i would kill to make you feel i don’t mean kill someone for real i couldn’t do that, it is wrong but i can say it in a song a song a song

it's so tell not show-y. And I don't think show don't tell is sacred, but that's just plain "I'm singing about how much I want you to feel for me. I wouldn't kill anyone, of course, but I felt like singing about killing as a metaphor."

It's like the interview describing the lyrics, except... it's the lyrics. Augh.
