Well I think you're wrong. She's a songwriter and a singer; how the hell is she not an artist? The girl has been out for 5 months and has two number 1s already, how much more can she bring to the table than two hit singles?? Funny how being a great vocalist is characterized as "bringing nothing new; yet we have award shows and concerts with artists lipsnyching and not singing; or singing terribly. So if you can sing, that doesn't matter?? I guess every new artist has to be groundbreaking when the first come out. Give her time. Nobody was fully formed when they first came out. It takes years to hone your craft. Adele, Bey, Rih, hell even the greats take time. The Rita we see today will become better, and her sound will be perfected; but it takes years.
