Correct

It only works for rock bands.

Selena Gomez, Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus, the list goes on...

Bowie started out a weird alien faggot, then got more and more experimental, it culminated in the berlin trilogy.
Then he said fuck it, sold out in the 80's, made lets dance, modern love, it was the embodiment of being a 80's pop star, he looks like fucking bucakroo banzai.

Then he made never let me down and realized he had gone too far.


Made a come back in the 90's some of the albums he made are underrated, later bowie is underappreciated, started experimenting again with electronic music.
Black star was the greatest last album ever made, bowie knew he was dying, gave him a real kick in the ass to make that last great album

experimntal to the modern pop world means being some bland imitation of indie.

really being experimental would be harry styles making a krautrock album.
Justin biber making a shoegaze album.
And selena gomez making like some bjork shit

p.s. make a portishead like triphop album miley

The Monkees
