again.
i know how the game happens:
they get overwhelmed with shit to listen to and
if they even listen to the album more than 4 times before passing judgement
you are lucky:

if you notice they are all saying the same thing:

wanna know why?

enter tom brehan (whatever his name is) and the pitchfork crew.

journalists now live and die by whatever those guys say (pitchfork is RAL big on "the next thing" and "trashing the old gaurd")

so the trend this year is going after easy target tariq.

because there HAS to be a logical reason why we are not STARS.

meanwhile their praise of the mistrel culture in hip hop is even more disturbing to me (don't let me say the "r" word) simply because i see their acceptance of it as some backwards way of saying "see this IS REAL AUTHENTIC black life here."

i got more on this but imma chill.
