I mean, there are one or two songs that are good, but her big thing was kinda pre-staging the actually great artists that would come out afterwards. But even then, stuff like Crystal Castles (specifically Alice Gao), A.G. Cook (P.C. Music production in general), and a whole other host of artists were far more directly responsible for the pre-staging the huge take off of what would be called 'hyper-pop'.
Grimes is fine, maybe even above average, but definitely overblown.
