  could have invented another weekend day instead, that’s some corporate lobbying right there

    We didn’t have The Weeknd until about a decade ago.

    Wikipedia says she had released 25 singles and 3 albums and since Friday and none of them even got close to the same success. Having rich parents must be nice.

      Whatever. Good for her. She found something she enjoys doing and is doing it and is apparently making enough of a living at it to keep doing it. I would be very surprised if her parents have been bankrolling her since 2011. I don’t think they’re that level of rich, especially when I just read that Friday, both the song and the video, cost them around $8000.

      Plenty of one-hit wonders go on to a long musical career despite never replicating the success. The unique thing here was that the one hit was loved because of how bad it was. I would also note that she didn’t write the song or create the music video she was in for Friday. And she was fourteen. It was basically just a present for their fourteen-year-old because she wanted to be a musician when she grew up and it made her a laughing stock.

      I honestly felt bad for her back then and I still do now, so I’m glad she’s actually followed her dream and made something of it.

      Music production and release is more accessible than ever. You can release to streaming for like $20.

      I’ve been rooting for her since she did an anniversary remix of Friday.

    I’m glad John Bolton is still finding work even after Trump was elected.

  It was really annoying before that, when we had to call it “that day between Thursday and Saturday”
