Readers, I’m a little pissed off at Glastonbury right now
Well, obviously I know nothing about the logistics involved in planning a festival. I can only imagine this is a real pain. However, I can’t wrap my head around the fact that the organizers concentrated three major artists (Janelle Monae, Burna Boy, SZA) on the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, while large acts were held on other stages. The fact that all three artists are black doesn’t look good either, given Glastonbury’s historically overwhelmingly white headliners.
It doesn’t help that SZA is currently knocking out Dua Lipa’s show regardless of the audience size. She has the star wattage that Dua lacks, no matter how hard she tries. The R&B singer has charisma, not to mention those beautiful vocals.
