    Honestly I’m just thrilled when someone respects an album as a cohesive experience rather than selecting a vibe and just listening to whatever a platform decides to stream to you.

    People really be thinking Fantano is a villain but hes just a critic. If you dont respect him then find one you do…its not that deep

    Hes good starting point when you decide to follow new music releases. We just don’t need to take his opinion as unarguable truth

    Hah, ah Fantano. Y’know, he wasn’t incorrect when he said he’s one of the most influential music reviewers of our time. But there’s no way to say that without sounding completely full of himself lol

      As an avid pavement listener, I’ve had this guy pop up as recommended for YEARS, and I’m so happy I’ve never clicked.

        I don’t agree with all of his takes, but that’s what makes some of his reviews so interesting. I also appreciate his willingness to change his opinion on a band or musician.

          To me its more about the algorithm. I want to listen to my music, not listen to someone talk to me about my music, and the algorithm CAN NOT tell the two apart. My critique should really be with YT.
