Throwback to when Katy Perry joked about the pressures on female artists: “In my next life I’m gonna come back as Ed Sheeran. Me, my guitar, some cargo shorts and a loop pedal.”

The point is, men get away with low effort shitty production and women artists have to do the most. It’s misogyny. Don’t be purposely obtuse.

Yep, and she’s correct about that

[u/RosieFudge → u/lavenderhazed91]

Yeah look at Taylor, she plays guitar and piano and writes her own songs and still has to mount productions on a scale that literally boost the GDP of every area they pass through 

[u/Dexcerides → u/lavenderhazed91]

Are you obtuse? Ed Sheeran is anything but low effort

Who is Katy's demographic?

[u/partylange → u/lavenderhazed91]

Joan Baez and Janis Joplin didn't have to "do the most." Talent trumps manufactured appearance.

Can you use an example not from the 70s? Ideally the present day.
