Reviews
- Pretty good
I disagree with many of his takes but, in my opinion, he is still one of the more intelligent music critics out there. (and I do agree with him often) He does infuse politics into the sphere of music, which I (sorta) understand. One’s personal appreciation of art and music is determined by their experience in life, and how they apply that experience to that of a particular artist. I definitely don’t agree with his political views but I still appreciate his honesty.
