and that's what okayplayer is to some people, so be it. I've been on here since like 99 and still got a relatively low post count, cuz I don't like the back and forth.

You could name any album like "Illmatic" and say you think one song is weaker. Then a whole slew of people will chime in and say that's it's one of their all time favorite songs. It would seem the artist had a better vision than you did because they understood appealing in different ways across a complete statement made their art more whole. While you want to eat more of your favorite mac & cheese cuz it's so delicious, but that m&c wouldn't be as good if you hadn't had those green beans to balance it out.

Invalidating someone's opinion is as intellectual as arguing their taste buds are wrong.

Art shouldn't be perfect. There's no risk. And no such thing.


Sorry to come off angry before, just trying to make my point. Peace.
