I can’t get into new music. I just go back to listening to 70s Genesis for the millionth time.
This thread is like a honeypot for old people.

Now we know why the M4 Mac Studio and Mac Pro are delayed. She got all the chips on her award. 😡
You can't be serious with this comment. 😂
The award is a waste because the wafer could be used to make like, what, 10 out of 100 million chips or whatever?

So is she holding the rumored Mx Ultra Quad Maximus++ Silicon? 
I don't think I've ever heard a single track from her. Aggressive marketing is a huge turnoff.
Her "What Was I Made For?" ballad from Barbie was fantastic – really brought extra to an already excellent film.
Who? Never heard of her. So I search her music and listen to a few songs and all I have to say is if she is the music artist of the year then we are screwed as her music is awful lol
You know you are old (or maybe highly intelligent 😉) when the discussion is who should have gotten the award, and you know none of the people they are talking about. 😄
I guess Linkin Park released their album too late to be considered? I mean they changed singers and still are making an impact.
Actually, for a 12 inch (11.8" to be precise) it's around 300 per wafer. Although it varies due to, wait for it, chip size. Still, 3000% of your 'estimate'.
Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Tyla, and Ariana Grande: *exist*
Apple Music:
(seriously, whoever's handing out awards at Apple Music thinks Billie Eilish has had the biggest impact this year? 🙃)

Compared to Billy Sabrina is more like one song singer🤣 Also it not the best song (imo? Sorta overrated) tbh with overly aggressive marketing campaign
That’s one way to get rid of all those leftover A15 Chips!
While I liked her last album more, I still thought this latest one was pretty good. Especially after learning she wrote most of it immediately following the most painful heartbreak she’d experienced so far. Really made the lyrics in the songs feel more authentically visceral and cerebral for me, rather than the typical sad girl ballads you hear nowadays that are oftentimes just melancholy for melancholy’s sake.
That Beyoncé country album SLAPS. While I have a few of her biggest hits in my library, I could take or leave her music for the most part over the years. But that album transformed me into being a fan of hers simply because of the sheer amount of work that went into it as well as proving her versatility as an artist and producer. I genuinely can’t remember the last time I was so surprised and impressed by something new in the pop music scene before I listened to that album.
Cue the out of touch comments....Oh, looks like I'm too late.
I'm stuck in the 1880's. Johannes Brahms FTW!
Billie Jean, who else?!?
There clearly hasn't been any good music since 1789, when Joseph Haydn released Symphony No. 92 in G major and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart followed up with autumn's hottest track: Clarinet Quintet, K. 581.
