so tired of these pretentious “social media bad” take. james and tyler lucky there’re in a position to be talking whilst already being successful. for every song they don’t get credit for, a hundred artists blow up.

james just mad he can’t write a song catchy enough to save his life.

I agree I’m talking about the label trying to capitalize off of the godspeed moment 3 years ago. When FTBYH flopped they realized they need to just let him do his thing. He’s never going to cross over in the way they may have envisioned upon initially signing him

Ok and how does that matter? God forbid I used AI instead of Content ID. The point is they can easily fix this.

What does you personally not finding his songs catchy have to do with his speaking out on the deterioration of songwriting due to TikTok???

And in the same post you literally said he’s “already successful”, so you’re contradicting yourself on top of posting nonsense.

This is rich coming from James Blake lol, you can sum up his discography pretty well in the length of a tiktok. Your whole discography sounds like a 15 second clip repeating so what’s the issue

Swear I’ve said the same on here when people critique the younger generation musicians with why there’s a different format for music. But if you just zoom out a bit, and you take into account the whole ecosystem, music is consumed entirely differently than it was in the 90s. The function of music is entirely different today than it was then.

Music today, for many people, is an asthetic tool that is a component to present themselves with on social media. As much so as a photo filter to capture an individual’s branding of how they want to present to the world.

I’m not saying that to justify or criticize popular music but just to give context as to why music is structured the way it is now versus the historic benchmarks we compare it to.
