It’s a ****ing insult to jazz. There’s ten worthwhile releases coming out everyday to no recognition and this ****ing garbage gets billboard number one jazz. This isn’t ****ing jazz. Billy Childs shouldn’t just be chastised for making very bad music he also deserves to get his ****ing ass kicked for taking up space. For ****ing wasting the atmosphere that actually creates the sound waves this worthless **** takes up. It’s a personal insult to me that my fellow human would stoop this ****ing low. Someone should beat the **** out of his mother. I’m not even joking.
Yeah, yeah, but did you like it?

Your opinion here reads like hopeless music snobbery 101.
Everything about Hawk is music snobbery 101. If he likes something it's unassailable and anyone who doesn't like it can expect to get their door kicked in, but it he doesn't like it it's hot garbage and anyone who does like it can expect to get their door kicked in. There's no midway with the guy: love or hate, no in-between, with a good solid dose of **** you either way.
