Again - legacy music publications have kneecapped themselves by bowing to fandom. Doomed to print sentimental narrative essays about fan labour and the joys of boyband community for years to come

Interesting amount of online music fans who have no idea what music criticism is, no notion that an artist could have peaks & troughs in their career (v important for biographical context) or that a low score is not actually a vote of low confidence in an artist

I just got fired from Pitchfork. They said the score should’ve been lower.

Few very well presented by Álvaro García Ruano. Note to self, everything works better printed for real and photographed with lots of noise. Tactile rules.

1. you can write a profound piece of music w/o actually having lived the experience
2. there are plenty of western stars who don’t write their own music just like in kpop (fyi nothing wrong with that)
3. there are several idols who already contribute to their own music

Kpop stans want idols to write their own lyrics with personal stories like Western artists, but what can idols even write about? They work every day, can’t date or club without it being a scandal. Western artists disappear for years, marry, divorce, fight, go to jail…

“Recreates” / “odes” / “tributes” / “reboot” / “sports archive”

as if lived in experience is the only source to write music. lmao. kate bush and her wuthering heights album begs to differ.
if they good, then they can write based on ANYTHING beyond just life exp.

Finally, a pairing more iconic than whatever celebrity couple I am supposed to be caring about right now 😍

I been tryna keep my mouth shut on this, but text on image in hopes of squeezing engagement on ig is so tiring and boring.
Besides copying content, the format is literally the exact same. How are you not bored??

to be fair agencies are also treating the music like influencer content as a way to market to a generation of short attention spans that cycle through and forget the artists’ albums faster than light.
“txt cb april 13th” -mie@kamalfromtxt
most of kpoptwt consumes music like it's influencer content and not an art form and that's why y'all spend so much time disappointed by your own favs.

truly wild watching people outside of Hong Kong praise this opportunistic hack. this fool has been one of the sleaziest, most neoliberal, anti-labor, and homophobic politicians that Hongkongers have been calling out for years.

MUST WATCH AND SHARE CLIP 🔥 Hong Kong lawmaker Dominic Lee to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva: “What moral authority does the U.S., a country ruled by the Epstein class, have over my country which has lifted 800 million people out of poverty? What moral authority do NATO countries have who preach human rights while turning a blind eye to the Zionist genocide in Gaza?”
