They run in the same orbit as Sam Smith, Whitney Houston, Sia, Beyoncé and Sienna Spiro, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Sam Smith, Bridgit Mendler, Anna Naklab, Soulidified and Candice Glover, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
