Piero Scaruffi General
he probably can't play guitar
Doesn’t matter. The critic is the real artist.
scaruffi be like
>Scaruffi died of autism in july 2019
Based or cringe?
Cant do it, teach It, cant teach, judge
Saying the music just about the aesthetic is not a base thing. Fantano also says this about yung leans music.
Music and visuals are one thing
how can one man be so absolutely based?
>the cope
Doesn't everyone take pictures of their friends (3 of which are named Wu Bin, wtf?) and hang them up on a wall, then autistically listing their friends on their public web site?
>thinks Prince is overrated
>lowballs hip hop 99% of the time
why is scaruffi so racist?
>the critic is the real artist
Fuck him and fuck you, I want to see you write a good piece of music.
Scaruffi may not always be right, but I've found more great music through him than anyone else. Thank you, based scaruffi.
Scaruffi is truly an enigma. Sometimes he is so completely based but then he turns around and does something unbased and stupid.

I'M NOT READY BROS

Masterfully crafted post
The Chad Scaruffi:
>full blooded Italian
>mathematics degree
>still lectures at universities
>50+ years of listening to music
>the critic is the artist
The virgin fantano:
>only half Italian
>college dropout
>desperate for the attention of musicians he reviews
>not even 10 years of music criticism experience
based and redpilled
I think fantanos ok for his own frame of reference.
1960s-2000s, scaruffi
2000s-2010, pitchfork
2010s-2020s fantano
Fantanos clearly running out of steam, but what comes next?
Two of those are totally time-based and Fantano will have 50+ years of listening to all of the music Scaruffi has listened to and more under his belt by the time he goes.
based n redpil
>full blooded Italian
Imagine thinking there was such a thing. HAHAHAHAHAHA oh fuck
the creator the music is a critic as well. they critique every sound they think about, every lyric they choose, and as such their “reviews” have more impact on the final product (the music) than any other listener. they are the most important critic, a different critic could only matter more than the musician themselves if that different critic released a review that completely changed the way people looked at the music. i don’t mean influencing the rym score by .5, i mean making people interpret the album as something literally entirely different from its original meaning. might be possible, but i’ve never seen it happen
scaruffi is an irrelevant pseudo-intellectual. he only uses this argument to make people think he’s important, but he fails to look deep enough into the argument to realize its full implications
