Is the hate that singers receive too harsh?


Everyone has that one singer that they can’t stand. No matter how many times they listen to the artist. No matter how many of their friends like the singer. They just can’t stand the sound of their voice. Now not liking a singer is fine, not everyone likes the same music, but do they deserve the hate they get from us.

Iggy Azalea could possibly be the most hated artist in the music industry at the moment, and recently her vine of her performing DRUGS live for her fans has gone viral after she got her lines tongue twisted.


The Australian singer copped heaps of hate for this vine, with hundreds of parodies of the video still coming out every week. And being labelled as one of the worst rappers of all time.

This wasn’t the only occasion however, Iggy also went on the world renowned morning radio show, Sway in the Morning. Where she rapped a freestyle performance as an MC for the show. Moments after freestyling, the show received a call from a listener, where a male aggressively abused the rapper as being a ‘terrible rapper and should get the hell off the radio’. Now Azalea didn’t seem to react at the caller, just laughed it off and continued her interview, but man that would’ve hurt. It’s these comments that get us to question whether they deserve it.

There’s no doubt that the comments hurt. Lady Gaga took her pain to twitter when she received criticism for her new album ‘Artpop’. Personally I don’t like Lady Gaga, but that’s my opinion, others could love her. Truthfully all hate is going to be harsh, but that’s what comes to those living in the spot light. You’re going to have your fans and you’re going to have your haters, it’s whether you’re going to let them affect you that matters. Or whether you’re going to use it to your ability, and maybe make song lyrics about it.
