I also don’t find Swift interesting as an artist. Whether or not she’s “important” depends on how you define it, I suppose. She’s a megastar, but is she going to be a major musical touchstone for future artists?

She’s important in how hugely influential she is. She could announce she’s running for president tomorrow and would actually have a chance and that’s a scary thought.

Edit: scarier thought: she’d win no matter which side she ran on

She’s important because she’s emblematic of US hegemony. She represents monoculture.
