Music critics not having music credentials.

To be a critic for a publication you must pass an audition on an instrument.

That's already illegal, though. What's lacking is enforcement.

>To be a critic for a publication you must pass an audition on an instrument.
I'd go further and say to be a critic you have to have a credit on at least one commercially released record.
They would be more careful with how they review shit if their crap was out there to be heard and scrutinized.
i bet we'd get good back and forth banter

That's a much better way of doing it honestly

nothing

>>69572605
>They would be more careful with how they review shit if their crap was out there to be heard and scrutinized

logically makes no sense, why would they be more careful?

the motivation of careful evaluation is their reputation as a critic, for the public through public ears

>>69572605
>They would be more careful with how they review shit if their crap was out there to be heard and scrutinized.
Yeah they would be real careful not to be honest so as to not attract criticism of their own work

what a dumb post

I'm neither, and I still disagree with your opinion. Why on earth would limiting who can be a music critic to a select number of people who can pass an instrumental audition be a good idea? You are immediately limiting the scope of people who can critique music immensely. Maybe you are of the opinion that people who aren't versed in music theory aren't good musicians, and that's an entirely new kettle of fish but one I wont bother trying to make sense of, because your choice is quite simple. If you don't respect someone's opinion about music as you don't think they are qualified to talk about it, just don't read their criticism.

To suggest they shouldn't be allowed to have a published opinion on music, and goes against the foundations of most democratic societies is completely idiotic.

So yeah, really dumb opinion dude.

This is the legit worst idea ever

"Drops" are just a currently popular iteration of an essential part of music - tension and release. It will change but it's not going to go away any time soon and nor should it.

things id change:::

-must have listened to an entire album to be able to speak about it
-no more meme subgenres
-delete the top 40 and get rid of commercialized radio stations
-not allowed to make "genre-sounding music"

Great bands from the 80s/90s reuniting and releasing extremely uncool shit to mediocre records. This trend needs to die. There are rare exceptions like Swans but most of the time it just makes me ashamed to like the band.

The worst thing about this is that they're ignoring professional musicians who don't release music (e.g. someone in an instrumental ensemble) or musicians who are unable to get a "commercial" release (e.g. avant-garde musician).

Basically, these retards are saying you have to be a pop musician to be able to critique music.

>>69572464
entirely agree with this.

Using instrumentals not made by the artist (sampling is okay, just be creative with them)

Not crediting the producer(s)/composer(s) enough (That's right top 40, it doesn't take 50 people to make an album, unless the act is 50 people)
