The search for ‘the new Billie’ is undoubtedly under way. But how will record labels attempt to replicate her success?

Last week, Billie Eilish released her masterfully mournful Bond theme, No Time to Die – a huge swoop of a song that wants to bottle a feeling of timelessness. It ratchets up what has already been quite the year already for her, as last month she became the youngest person to win best record, best song and album of the year at the Grammys.

The race to find another talentless child.

Just delete this post already..

There will be no next. There will be more better and more interesting artist than Billie Eilish Coming in future.

I'm volunteering

There is no 'next Billie Eilish', Billie and Finneas are definitely very unique and they are here to stay.

And I oop-

Or how about we don't continue to perpetuate the idea that women expire and have to keep changing and evolving to be interesting enough for the public. She's a kid. This is exactly the kind of toxic anti woman rhetoric that was in Taylor Swift's documentary.

This article is lame, searching for 'the next' of any artist, and then calling music a copy of the past 😂😂😂 Billie and Finneas are the original version of themselves, it's all we need

I hate people! There’s only one Billie Eilish and about a billion fuckin haters! No one will ever replace her. There’s a reason why she rose to fame as quick as she did and why so many adore her.

She’s one of a kind don’t hit my with that bs

Orrrrr just let new young up and comers make their own names and not pressure them to compare to someone who is where they are trying to be one day. It doesn't need to be a race, there can be many greats!

Not exactly the same way that she is, but you can find some one more Fierce here awaits 💍🐝

Why yall want another? Shes still alive lol smh

Guys isn't this article just commenting on how record labels will be racing to find someone who can gain the same kind of following and make the same kind of money, I don't believe they are saying that she isn't unique , simply that money hungry people look at her and want that.

Geez talking about her like she is dead

Feck of

Wow already? Billie just came up and she's gonna be here for another 15 years. You better get ready for it.

Yo calm tf down, shes still here

''tHe NeXt BiLlIe EiLiSh'' Billie is one of a kind and like, frfr?

There is only one billie and Finneas and you should focus on the beautiful work that is being produced now and not on the “next” what a horrendous article pure nonsense

Thats funny that you think there could ever be another Billie Eilish. 😂😒

shes one of a kind. there wont be another.

What the hell!!! How dare you!! Everything you wanted? To tear down an amazing person by claiming she can be replaced or someone else is better!! Shame on you shame on you!!!!

Never heard of him.

Language like this is how we can be certain the media does not see artists as human beings but rather spectacles to be exploited at any cost.

This is the problem with the entire entertainment industry. When something unique becomes unexpectedly successful, they try to imitate it ad nauseum until people get sick of it.

Pick me xD

Lorde is the supreme

There's not other, honey.

Why do people always do this. I thought we all knew that's bullshit by now.

why the fuck is there always a need to find the next xxx just appreciate the ones you already got, ITS LIKE THIS FOR EVERY ARTIST OUT THERE they are all one of the kind, chill the f*ck out and appreciate her and her talent and her music please and sh*t up

She is just 18 lmao

Billie and Finneas are both one of kind. No one would be able to replicate anything they’ve done

Am I the only one who thinks most people misunderstood the article..I mean its talking about how many of the RIVAL labels now want to COPY Billie's strategy to success..Remember Billie's manager is part of this discussion

Did you mean *“next Billie Eilish Song?”

Shut the f

Stop kidding around people, the next Billie eilish will be her baby.. 🤣

Don’t shit on creativity or try to replicate it falsely

Don't be surprised when there are half a dozen just like her by the end of the year...

the next one y’all do realize she just won best n e w artist right?

Why does this apply to every article ever?

theres no next billie eilish. no next of any artist.

Ahehe that’s funny

y is it a race? y everything gotta be a fucking competition w everything. her career j started and y’all already looking for a replacement? we-

Can’t be too hard to find! Music is manufactured these days! Just make another one!

The next one? She hasn't even been on the scene five years, can you give women artists a damn break and let them have careers before trying to replace them every five seconds with the next hot young thing

stop go away

the fact y’all think there could be another billie eilish......

She’s...18. Get a life.

If you're into depressed asthmatics, I guess...

Damn bro. They really trying to find the ALTERNATIVES. Billie is as real as it gets.

There'll never be the 'next Billie Eilish'.

Ela é unica já disse o finneas

Why yall want more mid so bad?

Didn't she sing a song about this? Ahem... Copycat anyone?

Why can't we have a race to find the next 'Led Zeppelin'? Instead of this rubbish.

Can y'all chill tf out, she's only been in the industry for like 5 years. Why are you so eager to push her to the side and replace her?

Why yall so quick to replace sum that's not broke

home girl started only 3 or 4 years ago lmao calm down

but. she's still alive and making music. why are y'all wanting to find 'the next' billie eilish when she's Still Here

Bro she’s like 18 and y’all already trying to replace her? I don’t even listen to her but damn.

Did any of you actually read the article lol

no... let billie eilish be billie eilish

what lol

are u serious ? wtf does that even mean

The rush to replace someone original and not easily controlled

She has a beautiful voice and shows true passion in here lyrics

The next? She’s 18, she’s not washed up yet 🙄 she’s just getting started

Sis... y’all- y’all dumb for dat

Isn’t she like 18? We already need a new one? The fuck?

we don’t want another

there’s not gonna be “another” stop

She’s still like 18 and has been in the business for like 2 yrs and y’all already trying to find her replacement

She hasn’t even been making music for a decade damn let her shine

Bruh.

Just put somebody on drugs

Wtf, she is so unique

The industry is fuckin weird man she’s literally just starting and they’re already looking for a clone?

The fact that y’all think Billie Eilish is unique is weird as hell.

? she’s not gone there’s no need for a “next” lmao she’s still around damn calm down

Why would u want to have a copy of a copy

It’s like you think of what the worst thing to tweet is... and then you tweet it

Absolutely she is one of a kind!

Stop trying to find “the next” of original artists. Billies career just began why would we want another one of her so soon anyway?

Why the fuck would be a next 'Billie Eilish'? The poor girl JUST started!

Why do we need to find “the next Billie Eilish”? Why can’t we just appreciate her now instead of looking for someone to replace her.

just find another teenager with rich parents already in the industry is isn't that hard

She JUST started her career please let her be successful without tryna replace her

i don’t even like this bitch but why tf they tryna replace her so fast like?

Imagine a newspaper saying your career was over at 18.

Billie is a rare gift to the wrld, there can never be another like her, her music is very real and touches the deepest part of your soul. 💯

Am sure you can find a teenager with a cuntin lazy accent

wtf bro

Stop calling artists “the next *other artist*,” they’re people. They’re their own beings.

And the new James Bond song was the most boring song of the Brits2020 Harry Styles song was a very close 2nd

Freshness fact: The next Billie Eilish will not the next Billie Eilish!
