Looking at groups of at least 3 people and more who at least sing together (and most likly, but not allways are dancing to their songs). At what point would you say they are an artist-group and at what point would you say they are an idol-group and what is a significant difference so you allready see who's an idol and who's an artist?
I allways thought you only call someone an artist if that is a soloist, band that plays only rock/punk/metal/jazz, duo or group who onl sings ballad or jazz-songs without any pop or hip-hop influences, people who sing to metal or rock, people making music for old people,... but I don't really see how you devide idols-groups and artist-groups since what people told me as "artist-group" looks and sounds nothing different than an idol-group since what I see and hear are most of the time people with the same look and musicaly style as those who people automaticly call an idol-group
So how do you know at what point a boygroup or girlgroup is an artist group and not an idol group?
Let's say you have 5 dudes dancing together, 1 is a rapper, 1 is a main vocal, 2 of the dudes have colorfull dyed hair, everyone has makup on, they wear matching outfits, song is generic sounding, the MV has dance-parts and they use more as 1 set to film in. At what point would you call this group artist-group or idol-group?
