Reinventing Ayumi

Ayumi's role model is Madonna.

Then shame on her for breaking Madonna's golden rule: Re-invention.

Madonna never does the same thing twice, so every album is a completely different body of work from the other. No matter how terrible her album sold, no genres were directly repeated. But what about Ayumi? Lol no! She crushed that commandment ages ago when she dared to make Blue Bird and then had the nerve to follow it up with Glitter.

Seeing that people are no longer bothered with her doing summery pop to death, she then went on to suck out all the life from the rock genre by making one rock single after another. Fated, Talkin 2 myself, Decision, Mirrorcle World, rock versions of her singles from the previous decade (You & Depend On You "anniversary" (lol!!) versions), etc etc. Then there was also a terrible rock album called GUILTY which became her first album not to reach #1 (lol!!).

Her music gets progressively more soulless and tedious each time she repeats the same thing. What happened to the Ayumi before My Story came out? New Ayumi is like a terrible racist insult to the entire Ayumi discography with every new song a fatal virus she adds into the Hamasaki Music Collection.

Someone needs to stop her now before she loses every drop of credibility.

Or perhaps she already has.
