Is Sam Smith finally going to be cool after seven years in pop?

But in 2019? All signs point to him going Full Pop Star: the Normani collaboration on Dancing With a Stranger the dance lessons with Parris Goebal (choreographer behind Justin Bieber’s Sorry video) the secret big-name collaborations for his upcoming album.
Or Sam Smith, AKA the lad your mum got into after picking up his CD at the checkout in Tesco, and, of course, the “first gay man to win an Oscar”.

Plus, now that he’s proper famous, he can draft in mates such as Schoolboy Q, Khalid, Travis Scott and Future for his albums, making it easier to ignore the more uncool aspects of the artist formerly known as Adam Wiles (such as the fact his Vegas pool parties are the number one basic bro stag-party destination and he’s quite serious about his vegetable patch on Instagram). Forget three days of sunshine and wasps in your pint, the real start of a British summer is a Calvin Harris track you can guarantee you’ll be hearing every single second of your life until September. He has been around for 12 years, and he’s gone from “tall Scottish bloke waving his arms around on T4 on the Beach” to “reliable summer anthem generator”. But is it possible that “hanging around until everyone just accepts you as part of the musical landscape” and “tricking the public into thinking you’re cool by getting some famous mates on your songs” is also a factor?
W hat does a musician need to become a proper, established pop star with a decades-long career? Talent, yes, obviously, and some banging songs.
