nothing about fantano is authentic.. just did it so he didn't have a bunch of mac stans and people pretending to like mac hanging it above him for the next decade like people do with MBDTF and trilogy

But he's still so stubborn about MBDTF and Trilogy so why would he flip over Mac if it came down to that?

Need Florence Pugh to give me that poo machine

I like your optimism but I’ll continue to be salty about that forever. That original review was scathing bro

because he can jokingly meme about kanye and the weeknd.. if he tried to meme about someone who died he'd be finished

He right about MBDTF

Nah that original review was some bullshit and I dont put that lightly. One of his worst reviews ever. Where he just got damn near everything wrong.

almost went a whole day without posting a bad take and failed in the last hour...

Impossible challenge

house of balloons or born to die is his worst review ever

2 of the most influential and highly regarded albums of their era and literal career defining projects and he hated both, shat on the artists, said it wouldn't last

gives BTD a weak 3/10 and IYRTITL/Ye an 8/10

Ye being an 8/10

Just goes to show you critics have a place but they don’t taste make. They don’t chose what hits the culture and lasts long enough to influence music

fantano isn't a critic like that.. he has no influence on artists besides the cornball guys like joyner, denzel etc

If JIK didn’t exist Ye might legit be my least favorite Kanye album

Its weird the power that Fantano specifically seems to have on the music community online.

Like he really is just a white nerd who shares his opinion at the end of the day but people go nuts over it. To the point he has huge artists like Drake and SZA DMing him and insulting him. The fact he has that much pull amongst music fans and huge artists.

critics have no place in art.. throughout history they're completely wrong almost everytime

the critics of the day hated beethoven, the most influential musician oat

ok im back from crying over mac

im good now guys

critics are literally just conservatives for art who hate the future and progression

you think kendrick lamar gives a s*** about some flabby bald guy on YT?

or taylor swift

Fantano has his place but I had to stop giving his ratings weighted importance in my life. It’s just his opinion. I’ve gotten some good ass music from him and agreed with him then the complete opposite.

Honestly his s***s gotten worse bc he’s so big. He has to s*** out reviews rather than make the long form more thoughtful reviews which I liked more than the rapid fire 6 min reviews he does now

Not Kendrick specifically but he seems unfazed about that kind of criticism

There are artists, big artists in the music scene who definitely pay attention to his reviews on the low and get upset when he doesnt give them a favorable review though.

Drake for example.
