smart guy, shitty music

I feel the same way but I can't put my finger on why I can't bear listening to anything he's made

Neither do I. Still, I assume his music has low quality- his voice particularly irritates me.

it's the pretense that you *should* listen to him because he's so smart, likable, and oh-so-good at everything music... and then, of course, how idiosyncratically show-offy and cloyingly weird the music itself is

Theoryfags will never understand that just because you're creative it doesn't make your music enjoyable to anyone aside from the most autistic neets

how can kurt kobain with no theory and powerchords btfo this guys entire discography

no soul

It's not even weird, sounds like s Stevie Wonder spoof

It's obvious though, he has many ideas but can't put them down properly. He blends so many ideas and influences together that the final result is, coupled with a sterile production, borderline unlistenable.
Case in point:

Has he created literally anything that isn't a soulless Stevie Wonder knockoff?

itt: plebs

Jesus. Just because you can use extended harmony and world percussion doesn't fucking mean you should. That first track is 7 minutes that goes fucking nowhere. Might as well just listen to the new Tool if I wanted that shit.

God you guys are dumb. The fucking guy can not sing. Thats it. Musicians support singers. Musicians have always been a dime a dozen. People gathered from all around to hear a great voice. Beatles marketing myth fucked every ones perception up so badly they thought singing wasn't important anymore, just need to be mediocre and cute, well, have fun chocking on Jacobs cocks for the next 100 years because you know the asian century is going to resemble his music more than anything else.

>Implying the only reason anyone gave a shit about the Beatles wasn't because they had the best producer of that era

Soulless

ugly hapa

there are lots of ugly hapa males but he's actually hot to most women

Phil Spector still produced better sounding records than George Martin. Why are they remixing The Bealtes every 5 fucking years if its sounds so good? Wall of sound mono kills all beatles recordings, but nice try to ride on the coat tails of my comment which is undeniable truth. No Beatles means to shitty bob dylan. Beatles opened the door for every no talent hack to be a star cause they can string together a few chords.

Suffers from the problem all these faggots do: learned so many advanced theory concepts that they feel the need to use them at all times in every song to flex while forgetting basic concepts like tension & release. As a result the music comes across as the penguin of doom pasta, trying too hard to be original while being a stereotype.

listening to this guy gives me confidence to make my own music

i can't make anything worse then this homo honestly

It's like if you described what music was to someone, had them study everything about music, gave them the instruments and funding, but never let them listen to actual music beyond royalty free background noise.

his vocals annoy me beyond comprehension

he insists on using his voice in most of his music even though it has a very unpleasant tonality

>Implying Phil Spector ever made a good record

This is more iconic than anything the beatles ever did. The bealtes have to create their own bubble with their own movies and soundtracks Outside the beatles cult they aren't even referenced.

I unironically think he's good

Amazing musician
Incredible musicianship
Goofy execution
Likely autistic as fuck

>outside their references they aren't referenced
no shit sherlock

Youre pretty stupid if you dont get the point that they create their own cult of personality. You cant attribute anything beatles to anything outside the beatles. The ronettes can harken memories of a more wholesome time or however you want to frame your reference. YOu cant do shit with beatles its like the catholic church. You play a beatles song and have an implanted image of them performing it. Beatles = brainwashing.
