the fact that she's more individual now is precisely why she's worse, because she's so bloody unsubtle and loud and "LOOK I AM INDIVIDUAL" about it, the equivalent of indie kids banging on about how unique and unlike anyone else and unmainstream they are, and I don't think she is really, especially not now nu-female confessional has taken over so much.
and the thing with being generic in a brilliant genre is that often no one actually sounds quite like you because most other faces of that genre will have...something which marks them out, something which makes them ungeneric. to be generic is to encapsulate the platonic ideal of the genre!
