Bitch you know I'm an idiot don't waste my time with that.

So you're talking about popular music? Ja I think that the generic and terrible artists that clutter the field have in part contributed to less interesting releases that are widely received. The lower common denominator is lower than ever because people are too invested in digging around in their niche to let someone else be a gatekeeper and the diamonds in the rough have a lot of distance in between them, making them harder to find (source: deafbox sales figures). I prefer the ability of anybody to drop an album for goofy white people to choose from to the classic model of goofy white people dictating who can release music by either doing it themselves with their daddy's money or on the record executive level.

You know who was monumental? Hitler. I hope you're pleased with yourself.
