To stand the test of time often means to remain “popular” or relevant for a long period. In today's world of celebrities and more specifically musicians, there have already been so many that have stood the test of time and are continuing to do so. One of the more recently popular musicians that I believe will stand the test of time is no other than Olivia Rodrigo. At just 17 years old, she released her first song “Driver’s License”, and it instantly became #1 on all streaming platforms, breaking all types of records. Shortly after that she released a few more singles, and then a whole album titled “Sour.” The success of “Sour” was huge and Rodrigo has had many new experiences and accomplishments all in just one year, which can take many artists years to achieve. I think she will stand the true test of time, because if she’s already breaking these new records and making new accomplishments, then I think she’ll continue to carry on that success and popularity with her.
She recently announced that she’s going on tour this year, which I think is incredible. Usually when artists are starting to launch their careers, they’ll find a bigger artist to open for at their shows. With Rodrigo it’s mildly different. With the fortunate series of events that unfolded in Rodrigo’s life, she is already known enough to be able to go on her first solo tour. I think if Rodrigo keeps releasing new music, she won’t have to worry so much about it not having streams or fans, because everyone will already be anticipating the release. I think 5 or 10 years from now she could be one of the biggest pop stars of our generation. Just like how we were all obsessed with Taylor Swift in 2006, we will look back on 2021, years from now and say “oh I was so obsessed with Olivia Rodrigo.”
