    Just because he didn’t make a reference to it doesn’t mean he didn’t know. And a lot of people called him out online over it and he said he was aware she had cancer but said she still came off in that way. So yeah, there’s no way he didn’t know. He literally researches the artist and the making of the album of every review he does

    Play the review again and tell me if this all still holds true
    It's on the first page

    Also send me 2-3 songs to play so that it's a fair exchange of time

    his comments about her were definitely in bad tast. however, just becuase she went through cancer doesnt mean his criticism of her being whiny and the music being ass are any less valid lol.

    people are definitely trying to use her health as self defense and a vantage point to s*** on fantano and prop up this mediocre album.

    The problem is that he said she had “main character syndrome” on an album that is about her struggle with her cancer diagnosis.

    If he was aware of her having cancer, then him calling it “main character syndrome” for her to make an album speaking about it is a ridiculously s***ty and inhumane thing to say.

    And if he wasn’t aware of her having cancer, then he failed as a reviewer and didn’t make sure he was well-informed on the album he was reviewing and didn’t thoroughly understand what the album was about.

    People aren’t mad because he didn’t like the album, they’re mad because of his very specific phrasing of saying that she had “main character syndrome” on an album about her having cancer.

    If he gave the album a 0/10 but didn’t use that very specific phrase to dismiss the album, then there wouldn’t be such an uproar about the review

    I didnt hear the album or watch the review and dont really plan on it so I dont really have a strong opinion

    But it does come off as being upset the music wasnt perceived the way she wanted, and she has a history of such.

    But also on the other hand fantano can just be very off in his reviews and i think artists should be able to challenge critics to some degree.

    It doesn’t come off that way at all if you’re aware of how he criticized the album

    It would be like saying David Bowie had main character syndrome on Blackstar

    But she has a track record of being upset at critics not liking her work besides this instance so its not like an isolated event.

    While yes its a reviewer job to know what they're reviewing, i still dont put it on a critic to know the full context of every album when they do and maybe the music didnt effectively relay that she was a cancer survivor. But I also dont put it past fantano for simply not catching that

  • Astroturfed argument from the Taylor Swift Industrial Complex because they're mad he interviewed Olivia and gave her a good review

  • This guy uploaded like a three part series crying into the camera multiple times cause he got dumped by his girlfriend. It was like 10 years ago but still

    Don't mean to offend but
    Have you played the review fam? Or perhaps it may be distant in your memory?
    From what I can see, it seems as though you are running with the 'main character syndrome' soundbite tbh

    No offence fam to you, i watched the review again since entering this thread earlier & I think folks just jumped on snippets & soundbites

    The review has NO indication of him assessing in from the context of her illness

    imo, you do not need to learn the background of an album to enjoy it
    If the work warrants a deep dive after you enjoy it, then by all means

    E.g. I'm not about to do a Lil Xan deep dive/background research for Total Xanarchy
