My original post was about comments like "so she can't hear how horrible she sounds, or is there no one who wants to tell her that this sounds very bad." My original post also included the phrasing "As an obligatory mention because I know some might take it like this - not liking her work and talking about that is different to not supporting her. You can't force yourself to like a new style of singing or her new work. But I've seen critique and comments that state that without losing the sentiment of appreciating the artist, and I feel that is the key factor."

I completely agree with the spirit of your post and I'm confused how the discussion got to the point where it is simplified to "people are asking only for compliments", when the original post literally ended with a note covering that as well.

Since this is getting more and more engagement though, I'll be moving this discussion to a new thread so people can still discuss it if they want while not burying any fan commentary on 23rd Monster. Me moving this is not saying that critique was originally inappropriate for the news thread, but for this one to make sense, the entire conversation has been moved for ease of understanding.
