The Most Popular Music Critic of All Times

Are you such a fragile person that you have to make a thread to highlight the opinion of someone in another thread that you don't agree with?

nice ad hominous

prove to me he isnt the most popular music critic of all time and i will admit defeat

music criticism is honestly the most cringe thing ever fuck god damn you guys are autistic

>>73635834
You spelled Robert Christgau wrong you retarded faggot.

What's the closest music criticism has ever gotten to having a Roger Ebert?

>>73635834
You aren't wrong. At a time where celebrity status reaches the most people due to social media and the internet, it is very very possible The Needle Drop is the most watched/read/whatever music review program in human history. With over 1 million subs on youtube and insane viewership numbers on each video, his reviews probably have more relevant weight than almost every other review combined. The only thing stopping full takeover is not being on Wikipedia album pages.

He's not a critic he's a YouTube entertainer

who cares hes just a critic...

let these threads die

Thoreau?

>>73638034
When I hear or see Thoreau, I think of Henry David Thoreau, so I have no idea who you're talking about. Full name?

>>73638167
That's the one. Apparently he was a huge music buff.

>>73638189
Oh, well, Thoreau is probably more akin to someone like Andre Bazin or Godard when it comes to an equivalent of film criticism.

>>73637859
Leonard Bernstein probably.

>right now
Yes. he's the most popular critic at the moment
>all time
probably not but could be at some point

get off the internet faggot

>>73637977
People can't be two things.

Music critics are too bad at writing to get a job in actual journalism or creating writing, and too bad at music to even play in a single band.

Don't listen to music critics.

Fantano is fun because he's a meme, he isn't a serious critic.

This is the same substanceless "criticism" lobbed at film critics, also. It holds absolutely no weight.
