This. It's easy to say a movie/video game/album/book is shit without realizing how much effort is done to fully realize a project. This is mostly a problem with the general audience, though.

not really related to my point though. why release an album you're not proud of?

>>73970285
Because the creator of something (an album is this case) is always overly critical of their own work when it's probably fine.

>>73970285
do not realize how important it is to put yourself out there to develop as a creator?

I'd rather release something I'm proud of than toss some half-baked trash out there as an excuse that I'll get better some time later.
