(Radio.com) South Park has recently featured a storyline in which Lorde is in fact the alter-ego of 45-year-old Randy Marsh--and this week's episode of the show featured Marsh dealing with the reality of the modern music industry, taking on benefit concerts, holograms and much, much more.

'It's like everything these kids are into today is just rehashed s**t," says Marsh, indicting the tastes of modern youth. The episode then moves to a 'West African Gluten Crisis" benefit concert, with appearances from Miley Cyrus, Iggy Azalea, Lorde, Nicki Minaj and even a hologram of Michael Jackson.

When Randy is scared to perform live, his manager tells him, 'It's not about the music, it's about comments. You think what those people out there care what you sound like?"�

'That's not what my music is about," Randy/Lorde replies. "I'm not reducing myself to that. I just think our younger girl friends need something a little more positive as role models."�

Iggy Azalea chimes in: 'That's easy for you to say, you don't have a nice body." When Randy tries to reveal his true identity as Lorde, his manager replaces him with a Lorde hologram.

'You can't just replace artists with holograms. Who will create the content?" Randy cries.
