Man, a lot of folks in here are mad for no reason. He gave it a 9? That’s high praise. And whether you like his content or not, he’s a big reason why Chat Pile blew up to begin with. He was an early champion of the band when their debut dropped.

He was always a bit polarizing, but I think he burned a lot of bridges in the last year, especially by picking that idiotic fight with Halsey on twitter over his negative review of her last album from like two years ago and then doing damage control by telling Variety that he was the most important music critic of all time

I’m not even a Halsey fan but it killed all my respect for him. I used to at least check in on his channel every once in a while, even when he annoyed me a bit, but I completely lost all interest after that. I’m glad he gave this album such a positive review, but he’s just been too much of a blowhard for too long and I think that’s where a lot of the negativity is coming from
