I don't think anyone will start bashing you because everything you said it's true, we all know it, and, surprisingly, we don't care lol everything you said has been overly talked in this forum - too many times, and no one ever said it wasn't true haha

personally, I like Namie's objectiveness and honest about her career - including the reason why she has stopped doing tv shows and MCs.

Namie is a product, a brand, and a successful one. that's what we all should be happy about, though. she has managed to maintain herself relevant for a whole 25 years. she has adapted pretty well to the mainstream, whatever "era" she was on (even though for a sole album she wasn't as successful, it had more to do with her personal life than her music, really) - and since you mentioned Ayumi: she couldn't adapt her music as successfully.

that's how music industry works and I'm sure you'll understand one day that most pop acts are products. and products usually have an expiration date. some fade until no one knows about them. on the other hand, some just choose to leave the stage in a grand way. Namie, for one, is in the second group.

actually, everything you said sounded so naive haha like when I was 14 and used to attack whoever bashed Britney Spears because she wasn't a true artist lmao
