Counterpoint: Fantano is a critic for people who are incapable of enjoying things on their own merits and need some bespectacled fuckboy to tell them what is and isn't good.
Who the fuck even reads or listens to music reviews? "oh and at the mid interval when you get the high pitch fading out blablabla" JUST PLAY THE FUCKING SONG NERD
You’re just not intelligent enough to understand the slight timbre shift in the 4th repeat of the A-section. The way the singer enunciates his undertone is crucial to the entire song’s tone
I don't really give a shit about people's music opinions, but RYM is a good catalogue/resource as they have discographies of every band recording demos in their shed, and if you're looking for something specific, some autists make pretty good genre-based lists.
Say you're a male feminist who really likes Doom and Sludge metal and you want to impress m'lady so you can sexually assault her later? Well there's an autistic list for you!
He's become more insufferable over the last few years but his music taste is still way way better than any publication. Look at any top of the year list from previous years by him and compare it with Pitchforks
I thought he finally had a based take when he was defending H3H3 at the start of this whole situation but he really just has absolutely no backbone and will give in to whatever opinion he feels will pad his own popularity
The difference is kpop is heavily pushed commercially to young girls and the men look like that to appeal to young girls. Kpop isn’t that much of an artistic expression it’s literally American pop culture on steroids. Prince and david bowie broke gender norms cause they were creatives and boundary pushing
Jesus Christ the Kpop guys are deliberately made to look androgynous and non-threatening by the literal corporations that own them so they appeal to pre-pubescent girls.
This is in no way comparable to Bowie dressing androgynous for artistic effect...
You are receiving this message because you posted in defense of Donald Trump. I no longer provide individual responses on this matter. It has been my experience that Trump supporters are universally incapable of accepting verifiable truths about him and, by extension, themselves, thus rendering discussion pointless and, therefore, a waste of time.
I wish you all the best in your ongoing battle with reality.
There's a difference between making it on your own vs. robotic manufactured machine... like, Playboy model vs. Sex doll... both are made for shit but there's a small qualitative difference
David Bowie just dressed like a fag he hardly changed any gender norms and he only did it for show. Cause when he got old he turned back into a normal boomer.
Him cross dressing and gender bending in the 1970s was a big deal you fucking retard. Keith Richards almost did 2 years in jail for pot, and I believe being gay was still technically illegal then too.
You talking about that Instagram rapper zoomer? Lmao. Do yourself a favor and listen to the album ziggy stardust and the spiders from Mars, unironically
Odd. I mean for a person from a Spanish speaking country. Considering go to any Spanish (maybe not Spain, idk) speaking country and you can’t go two feet without hearing J Balvin or Daddy Yankee.
you're disrespecting Mercury, Halford, and numerous pioneers who blurred gender lines--like Bowie--
Mercury acted like a literal "YAS, QWEEN" 40 years before the term existed and hated the isolation it brought him in many ways. Halford was just a gay guy, who didnt blur shit and metal fans didnt care that he was gay. Bowie was androgynous, which played into his whole schick.
K-Pop is just terrible asian fetishism for dorks who want to like girls who had 10 plastic surgeries before they turn 25.
A couple of years ago he got an article written about him accusing him of being a member of the alt right. It was laughable bullshit and he refuted it pretty hard but ever since then he's been afraid of saying anything that might get him in trouble again, and sticks to only safe political takes.

He appeals to white male wokies (aka most of the extremely online) who want access to having opinions hip-hop without feeling awkward about it.
1 Bijzettafeltje 2019-12-09
He first got popular with /mu/ before he became well known to the mainstream. Mostly because his taste in music is pretty much synonymous with mu's.
1 TrailerParkRide 2019-12-09
Yeah but now most of /mu/ would happily see him drowned in a punch bowl. You Won't Get What You Want as noise album of the decade? Fucking puhleeeze.
1 ironicshitpostr 2019-12-09
Wow /mu/ hates someone/something people enjoy what a complete shock

To be honest with you fam those forums have the worst opinions on music possible.

Or someone laughed into your face and called you a fag when you told them "yeah I'm really into grunge, like Nirvana", and you're seething and really want to know what did he mean by that? Well some retard made a list explaining it to you, while introducing you to some interesting bands
1 iphr 2019-12-09
Imagine needing opinions to know how much you like your music.

He’s funny man. He used to make based comedy videos like “Changing my gender because trump was elected”

This retard should have stayed on /mu/ and never showed his woke side.
4 RedNumber_40 2019-12-09
It’s absurd to pretend to be woke when you literally crawled out of the 4chan shithole to start your career. Fantano has no spine.
1 RedditsAnti-American 2019-12-09
Its makes sense, Bowie didn't create great music. His image was more important.
1 Infidel6 2019-12-09
His politic posting really has become insufferable.
Probably overcompensating from that hit piece that tried to paint him as "alt right".

It's American pop but 10x more manufactured and they're fans are unironically worse than weebs and capeshitters combined.

also its run by a literal cult mafia much like every other aspect of south korean life

English-only speaking people over the age of 16 who listen to k-pop should be executed.

You’re absolutely right, bowie did it for artistry, kpop men do it for the girls and cause their manager tell them too
1 Kaiser-romulus 2019-12-09
Like how do you pretend this boomer changed gender norms
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Bowie#/media/File%3AIman_and_David_Bowie_at_the_premiere_of_Moon.jpg
It’s like saying Motly Cru changed gender norms cause they dressed like fags as well.
1 Kat_B0T 2019-12-09

He was just a rich boomer singer married to a brown woman then he died.
1 Kat_B0T 2019-12-09
He was an amazing songwriter, and literal acclaimed rock star. Stick to having opinions about nu metal and energy drinks dumbass lol
1 Kaiser-romulus 2019-12-09
You know who else was acclaimed? Juice World. So it doesn’t say much to be acclaimed. Anyone can be

1 DepravedMutant 2019-12-09
Yeah I dont think halford was really blurring gender lines either, that aspect of gay culture was hyper masculine if anything
