This was in the list of comments I sent Anthony. I'm a huge Jim O'Rourke fan; unfortunately Anthony is less familiar. Kinda illustrates your point. So FWIW: I AGREE -Austen
Austin Gaines
Hobo Johnson gets singled out in an unfair way for being misogynist just because people find him cringey - I think you can make a legitimate argument about obsessive and unhealthy romantic tendencies he has in his music but if you're going to look at it through a feminist lense you would have to widen the scope of that criticism to at least include the plethora of whiny modern emo and post-hardcore bands that write about dealing with rejection and lost love all the time. I dont understand how someone can criticize Hobo Johnson for this and act like la dispute wasnt writing about the exact same shit in a pretty similiar way on their debut album, which has garnered pretty significant acclaim over the years
Why donât you do any In Flames reviews? Theyâre giants in the melodic metal genre and there is a lot of love and hate surrounding their change in style over the years. Honestly I just wanna know your opinion!
You wont review Meme rappers like Yung Gravy or Bbno$
Anthony, you should continue with a music career. I would love to hear what you would create.
Arnarok
E.L.P are underrated as hell
David Pedron
Can we get jay z tier list/worst to best?
100 gecs will never make any sense to boomers
This is let's argue, not let's agree :P
FELCommentary
Honestly Game of Thrones' last two seasons were so fucking astronomically bad I would almost agree with this
earth by lil dicky was so bad that it couldne=t even be saved by it's countless features. the writing is bad and unoriginal, as is the instrumental
How is YoungBoy Never Broke Again popular. it doesn't make sense.
Epic Rap Battles of history are incredibly underrated in terms of the lyricism they display. Some of those rap battles have fucking BARS. The first example that comes to mind was in the Albert Einstein rap battle when he said "I'm as dope as two rappers, ... that means Albert E equals MC squared". YOU CANT TELL ME THATS NOT FIRE.
Soy milk is the best plant milk. Almond milk is just watery and gross, coconut milk doesn't have a neutral enough flavour to operate properly as a milk substitute, oat milk is decent and comes a close second though.
CarlySortof
I donât even fucking want to go into it but you misuse lots of phrases. Iâve heard you say âIâll digressâ, and âup and tillâ multiple times but Iâll be honest your misuse of âreinventing the wheelâ has legitimately caused real life family arguments
joey badass is very under appreciated in rap, he has had a very good discography, while being one of the most versatile rappers in the game, he should be in the discussion for being one of the best of the decade.
Billie Eilish is good but overrated
TPAB is the best hip hop album of all time
I would like to know if there is any reason I have never seen you talk about the Residents. They are easily one of the best examples of anonymity in music and have consistently put out unique projects for the past 5 decades.
Faris Al-Raqqad
The people who push the idea that Hobo Johnson makes "incel music" are a shining example of toxic masculinity; by taking an album like TFOHJ and writing off its mentions of failed relationships and yearning for love as a nod to inceldom, the people who levy this "criticism" against him implicitly send the message that men shouldn't be open with their emotions or talk about their experiences, failed relationships, etc if doesn't end in a world where he mans up and gets a woman, becomes comfortably single, or has some type of definitive/"happy" ending.
It was a shame to not see a single XXX or Ski Mask song on the Top Songs of The Decade list if that lists' intention was that of a slightly more objective/compiling the year fashion. Though it does make perfect sense neither were on the Album List.
Run The Jewels are the most underrated rap group of all time. 3 albums, all killer, they have a bad single here and there but almost all of the time their music is banger after banger. They deserve a spot in the mainstream.
Travis Farmer
Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties is one of the strongest recent entries in the americana/folk punk genres and has two of the best recent concept albums
MintyMuncho
Instrumental Hip-Hop is one of the least appreciated subgenres around. A specific instance of this is EL-P, who gets mad props for his work with RTJ, and on Def Jux and Rawkus, but rarely are records like Collecting the Kid (with the scarily relevant âJukie Skate Rockâ and rythmic trickery abound on âIntrigue in the House of Indiaâ, High Water (a collabo with Blue Series Continuum), or Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixxx3 celebrated much despite their quality. These are definitely not records built for radio and the lack of vocals may kill the catchiness for some, however, there is much more to love beyond those aspects.
Jack Bayley
Itâs a bummer that people arenât acknowledging that the 2010s was a pretty amazing decade for metal. It was great to see that the majority of the most celebrated releases were from grass roots bands that didnât have the backing or a scene based label! Itâs crazy that in the same decade bands as diverse as Nails, Ghost, Behemoth, Power Trip, Deafheaven and High on Fire could all define this decade. At the same time a bunch of older band released great releases or comeback records such as Judas Priest, Possessed, At The Gates and Carcass all releases stuff that felt youthful and current.
king gizzard & the lizard wizard is one of the best groups in the game. they are not only trying (and nailing) things that no other artists are trying, with concepts on records such as flying microtonal banana and nonagon infinity. they are also talented enough to completely reinvent themselves with each record (with styalistic jumps such as going from psychedelic folk rock on fishing for fishies to thrash metal on infest the rats nest. and need i even mention their 2017 run? they put out five albums that, while they are not all amazing, they are all at least good.
Marilyn Manson's Antichrist Superstar/Mechanical Animals/Holy Wood triptych remains underappreciated in the rock and industrial spheres and Mechanical Animals is a "mall goth"/glam industrial masterpiece.
Given unlimited time and resources to listen to every album made in the decade, your best of decade list would only have 25% of the albums placed on it.
Kamasi Washingtonâs album the Epic is really good, but it isnât the only possible choice for Best Jazz Album of the Decade, since Wayne Shorter, Melissa Aldana, Ambrose Akinmusire, Shabaka Hutchings, and others have released innovative and interesting jazz music to match, or arguably surpass, the innovations of Kamasi Washington
Jon Hoskins
FKA twigs is the new Tori Amos. Both make very arty music, with a strong focus on vulnerability and female sexuality/ empowerment. All twigs needs to do is drop some tracks about religion and shit
My bad just watched the January letâs argue and somebody said pretty much the exact same thing
John Pindzia
Generally very true, but never forget Morörhead did Triple Hâs theme back in the day. And they seem to be grooving Code Orange lately
Viper the Rapper deserves more credit for his influence on cloud rap. There would be no Die Lit without Heartless Hoodlum or The Hiram Clarke Hustler where Viperâs seemingly minimalistic and spacey production is surprisingly nuanced and his simple and repetitive lyrics make for legitimately catchy tracks. He is a talented songwriter and producer and is more than just a meme
you should review more music of non-English speaking countries
car seat headrest is literally just a bunch of discount 303 south chester clones
Overkill and Sepultura deserve more love as integral members of thrash - their discographies in the mid 80s to early 90s were consistently strong, more so than Anthraxâs was imo, and Years of Decay is a classic
The WWE have terrible taste in music.
Death Grips doesn't sound experimental after many listens it starts to make sense and sound more normal. I guess it's because you know what to expect?
Daniel Parton
Injury Reserve's Self Titled is a decent 8 at least. Bright, quirky, consistently hard production. Well written verses across the board too. The only true dud on the record is New Hawaii
haughty garbage
Ranking of public transit pastimes: 1. Music 2. Analog Book 3. Podcasts 4. Audio Book 5. Video Games
Personally: I fucking Love Relapse and I can't stand the Staccato flow from Revival.
Which of the following flows from Eminem do you prefer and which one do you find the most annoying: The Lazy mumble flow from Encore The Weird Accents (But SIck Rhyme Schemes) from Relapse The Aggressive Flow from Recovery and Bad meets Evil EP The Staccato Flow From Revival. Also, Eminem Tier list please or Worst to Best when ?!
Mos Def has the best flow in rap PERIOD
What if Joji's vocal improvements over the years are driven by his voice recovering from the Filthy Frank days?
Northlane isn't in the rock/heavy rock conversation as much as they should be. They're heavily influenced by bands like Tool and Meshuggah, but far from being a clone of either.
Isaac Peachey
Hopsinâs Happy Ending is kind of so bad itâs funny. Itâs completely horrible and a little infuriating, but I canât help but laugh at the fact that what Iâm watching/listening to is real and unironic.
Brazil is one of the best countries when the topic is music. We had the bossa nova, the mpb, the tropicalia, great rock bands and rap groups and a nice and always progressive in terms of quality indie scene. The stories abou the brazilian musicians in USA and other countries before and after the dictatorship that Brazil had in the 60's shows the love and apreciation other musicians had (like JoĂŁo Gilberto with Stan Getz) with brazilian music but that was forgotten after the dictatorship period ended
Cooper
Are we still friends? Is the best song on Igor.
[sLUms] is the next big wave in hip hop and deserve more coverage. The level of introspection and experimental production is exactly what our generation needs, especially within the black community.
Brendan
Music canât be objective. Wether or not something is good is purely based on the individual, and every aspect of a song canât meet a criteria that fits it into this objective category. Whenever I hear someone say, âI think this is good but this is objectively betterâ it pains me because theyâre essentially blocking out their personal opinion, and usually because someone told them otherwise.
Tough question: the oldest record you've reviewed is 1965's I Talk With Spirits by Roland Kirk. Are you only interested in reviewing modern music? What is the oldest piece of music you would consider critically reviewing in a Classics Week review? (Not that I'm exceptionally interested in hearing you review music >50 years old instead of more modern records, personally.)
The sheer amount of times I've heard Lizzo's "Good As Hell" on my works cafeteria radio has killed any amount of enjoyment I previously had for her music. Whenever I hear her voice I have to fight this sharp Pavlovian response to go, to run. I'm working on it.
beammeupjosi
Slowdive is one of the best band names ever conceived. Few names embody a band's sound so perfectly, while also simply sounding cool af
You sleeping on Sublime melon?
Most of Frank Zappa's rock material past Joe's Garage is drab and boring, owing to its focus on (pretty bad) comedy above all other aspects like tasteful musicianship and good songwriting (with notable exceptions like You Are What You Is). His classical material from that era kicks ass though.
Kevin Marcellus Horan
The Grateful Dead are one of the most important American bands, but they had zero direct influence anywhere else.
Jacob Moore
âRealâ by Kendrick Lamar sucks. Please stop making it play on the radio at my job
Andrew Shaktah
Not really an argument just wanted to know if you were aware of the recent YouTube documentary about Stefan Burnettâs previous hip hop group FYRE and what your thoughts were
WhyDoIBother
Dedicated is a better album than E.M.OTION. (deluxe edition excepted) It doesn't have any songs that rate below a 7/10 and is a more sonically interesting and consistent project overall, even if its best songs aren't as good as the best ones on E.M.OTION A or B.
Declan Gray
March 2015 was the best month for music in the 2010s. To Pimp a Butterfly, The Powers That B, I Don't Like Shit, Carrie & Lowell, NO NOW, The Ark Work, We Cool?, Madeon's Adventure, Today I Wrote Nothing, Fantasy Empire, AJR's Living Room... ...okay definitely not that last one but still. Name another month that topped March 2015. WE đ WERE đ FED. đ
Madlibâs Shades of blue is the closest that hip hop can get to jazz while still being considered hip hop. Itâs a wonderful combination of live instrumentation and sampling. All the while it informs the listener of the history of the blue note label through some of the fun skits in between songs. It doesnât get enough credit for how well it blends the two genres
The 2010s was the best decade for music in human history. While there are perhaps others that have been more ground-breaking (60s and 70s), no decade comes close to the 10s in terms of sheer quality.
Spyro: Year of the Dragon was the best PS1 game ever made.
John Fu
Drive Like Jehuâs Yank Crime is the best post-hardcore, math rock album; even better than Slintâs Spiderland.
Bryan Gilbey
The Tarzan soundtrack is the best music Phil Collins has ever produced
Bonito Generation is a far superior album to Time n Place. Its crisp and somewhat sterile electropop production is a much better fit for Sarah's cutesy, pure and childlike vocal style than the loose rock instrumentation of the latter.
Natalia Lafourcade could very well be Mexico's RosalĂa, but the lack of an international response towards Mexican music makes artists not want to experiment with sounds as much.
Mark Berman
KISS are kinda hacks. Their gimmick might've aged well if they actually bothered to DO something with it in the music, as opposed to the lame creepy-uncle-rock they dealt out for decades. I'm not opposed to fun, braindead arena rock, but it all feels like wasted potential. They get grouped with/compared to Alice Cooper a lot, but creatively Alice was on another level & had nothing to worry about. (Detroit Rock City still rips tho)
Billie's comments about hip-hop is nothing new to anyone who is more than just a casual radio listener to the genre. Many people already know that the lyrics about guns, women, and other typical topics are self-serving and embellished, or just used to prove a deeper thematic point. We've had gatekeepers in the industry for years (pusha, jay-z, hell even 50 calling out rick ross), so i'm not sure what Billie has to add at this point, or why people are taking it so seriously
Logan Colburn
Rick the Lai is a swell guy and you should show his channel some love
Cop shoot cop is underrated and better than a lot of early swans industrial music
Kevin Frey
Which reviews of yours are you the most proud of?
Corey Ruef
Just called my dad, can confirm âNot ready to be a fatherâ doesnât work for 12 years
Connor Craven
If more scenes had the energy and passion of local hardcore scenes music would be a better place. Unfortunately as you've previously, and correctly, stated its a genre so obsessed with its own criteria that once a band is labeled hard enough that its peers have deemed it hard to its very core they rarely want to progress or make things interesting musically and deviate from the formula got them there. Even though most of the people in those scenes listen to lots of other types of music that would be totally electric with that kind of energy and could draw more people into caring about DIY music scenes.
The Best Pizza Connoissuer
A mr. rager collab tape (kid cudi x travis scott) could potentially be better than kids see ghosts
Sweet Trip is easily the most underrated band of all time. V:D:C and You Will Never Know Why are near if not perfect albums that have fantastic production that meets if not exceeds anything else that was coming out in IDM at the times of their release. On top of that, YWNKW has some great songwriting as well!
Drive has the best film soundtrack of all time. You got Kavinsky's Nightcall, A Real Hero and the score introduces the amazing atmosphere of the movie.
cassettes are an advantageous way for DIY bands and independent musicians to make physical media affordably and (done correctly) have a comparable warm tone to vinyl. Cassettes are the way of the (near) future.
remora
Deftones' self-titled album is constantly overlooked and has so many strong cuts and a foreboding atmosphere
Andrew Shaktah
People who love MGMTâs Little Dark Age and itâs overall sound need to give credit to Ariel Pink who perfected the sound and aesthetic long before LDA
Tristan Noel
As amazing as NIN's The Downward Spiral is, a lot of its lyrics sound like a 15 year old edgelord's tumblr posts
Nathaniel Zaccagnini
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds are the greatest Rock band that nobody knows.
Andrew Shaktah
Yolandi Visser should play as Harley Quinn. Not only did she prove she can act in the movie Chappie, she also has the perfect balance of crazy/hot which is very fitting for the role.
William Basinski's The Disintegration Loops, as nice as they are, get overhyped because of the story behind it. Because of this, albums such as Melancholia get overlooked
Griffin
Why donât people get criticized for being obsessed with their dogs like cat people get criticized?
The weezer debut album cover kind of sucks. If it weren't for it being iconic and didnt match up with the other covers then it would be considered so
Kincaid
Does Chance love his wife?
beef
Pure Comedy is just "We Live in a Society - The Song"
lowkeymatt
Grapes are actually the best fruit. Theyâre also the most underrated
Plastic Beach is as much of a rap album as Igor.
Brendan James
Dance tracks like Futsal Shuffle are a double-edged sword: they give an artist a hot moment in mainstream culture but risk pigeonholing them as a novelty act (or at least "the one with the dance").
Quickplay!
We need less popular music about the one girl, and more songs about more interesting themes, like visiting the year 3000.
Reverie Foster
Joey Badass is the most overlooked rapper in the game rn
Chris Hickson
This is the decade for the fourth wave of ska. Strap in and pick it up
Calvin Michael
A$AP Rocky while bring a cultural icon shouldnât necessarily be held to the same regard musically.
Midlife Crisis is actually the least interesting song on Angel Dust
Foxx Navarro
Logic would be Buttigieg, Biden would be Joe Budden. Also Quelle Chris is Yang
Foxx Navarro
2012-2017 is a surprisingly good lovemaking album
Burke LeFauve
Bruh Writingâs on the Wall is a banger wtf you talking about
Burke LeFauve
Ben 10 (2005) has the greatest tv show theme ever made
Jenny McGlinn
If they didn't break up, the New Radicals wouldve been the face of rock for the 2000s
While he is critically acclaimed, IGLOOGHOST deserves so much more praise than he gets, he blends glitch and IDM with modern trap style beats like literally no one else in music does, heâs been a huge influence on PC music and NeĆ Wax Bloom is one of the best albums this decade
kendrick is a great albums artist but as a featured artist he is consistently underwhelming or out performed by whoever he appears with
danilo gondim
Why don't you make the "review your music segment" a livestream on patreon? That way is not as time consuming and it can give a certain boost on your patreon. Also i know more about brazilian music than you, why don't i return with my channel?
Connor Truelove
Why don't you review more drum and bass? It's one of the largest underground genres in the UK and across Europe. Do you just not like it or never gotten that deep into it?
Kirk Hammett is the most overly criticized guitarist of all time, heâs not a technical God like his thrash counterparts (Marty Friedman, Alex Skolnick etc) but he is a perfect fit for Metallica and he wrote extremely memorable solos in the 80s and early 90s that will always be remembered in metal history.
Bojack Horseman was the best TV show of the 2010's.
Benjamin Lisboa
Billie Eilish deserved all the Grammys she got and there was no snubs. People are just upset about an industry plant winning in the industry, despite her music actually just being very good.
carsausage
Better hot take, "mumble rap" is light-years better than Express Rap acts like Eminem, Machine Gun Kelly, or Hopsin
Pure Comedy is AOTC so far. (century) There is no better analysis of post-technological-revolution society.
NevadaNate
The Powers That B contains a LOT of great music for Death Grips, but I found the pairing disappointing. Neither side have much to do with each other, and the contrast doesn't really add up to anything. I actually think it would have been better to pair Jenny Death with The Bottomless Pit as they have much more similar sounds. Meanwhile notm on its own is one of the top 3 DG projects.
pretzels
side note: peanut butter is so very vegan. 100%, it is a 10/10 in terms of how vegan it is. but not nutella. nutella sucks.
pretzels
here is an unpopular take among my friend group. i am in college, and i have made an incredibly important discovery: 5-7 moderately heaping spoonfuls of peanut butter is a light to decent meal, or at least enough of a meal to tide you over for 1-2 hours or so
Adam mezzarone
Your should re-review the black mirror episode "Hang the DJ" because you completely missed the point in your review. You said the moral is to blindly trust the program but it's literally the exact opposite
tryhard
Imagine Dragons often gets crucified for making awful pop rock, but theyâre nowhere NEAR the worst band out there in the genre. Bands like Bastille, American Authors, Walk the Moon, etc. make far more mundane and soulless music that still lands hits on the alternative charts, and yet they get none of the flack.
Gray Taylor
This. Try putting on dance yrself clean and being like âno wait guys it picks up after 3 minsâ

How do you feel about reviewing music made in foreign languages? Also, how relevant is it for you to understand the meaning of lyrics properly and being able to interpret it on your own?
vvvvvomen
Jim O'rourke is not only one of the best solo musicians OF ALL TIME, he also is incredible in his work with other people and on the back end of albums, like mixing Joanna Newsom's Ys, his work with Sonic Youth and Gastr del Sol, and the Wilco albums he has worked on (YHF and Ghost being their best albums period, YHF is a classic.) He deserves WAY more credit for everything he's done, and he is a visionary.
Cantaloupe is gross

Uncut Gems was the best movie score of 2019. Watchmen had the best TV score.

Office Policy
Dethklok were unironically one of the best melodeath bands of all time. The way Adult Swim shafted Brendan Small makes my blood boil.
Think about it, the timeline actually add up, almost a little too well
âȘReplica is one of the first post-plunderphonics albums and is the best album of the 2010âsâŹ
âȘOasis only had two good albums in the 90âs at the beginning of their career, and they should, therefore, have about the same reputation as Weezer.âŹ
Logicâs lyrics are narcissistic and annoyingly self-indulgent. And while I greatly enjoy all of his albums from 2010 onward, excluding Supermarket, I canât always get past the fact that, more than half of the time, heâs rapping about how good of a rapper he is.
Kanye Westâs âchipmunk soulâ sampling style in the early 2000âs inadvertently inspired the live-action Alvin and the Chipmunks movie franchise.
ElephantofDoom
The reason rock music lost its popularity isn't just because tastes changed, its also because most of the popular bands at the turn of the 2000's either started making bad music or worse, started making music that was barely rock. Listening to bands like Modest Mouse and Arctic Monkeys sound like now, you would have never guessed what their first albums were like.
Not only is C418's Minecraft Album revolutionary, but so is the rest of his discography ngl. Every album slaps h a r d
pretzels
in one of your livestreams at some point(i think it was a non patreon one), you hinted heavily about a two of the albums you were going to review for classics week, with one of them being laughing stock by talk talk, and the other being velocity : design : comfort by sweet trip. you did end up reviewing laughing stock, but what happened to the sweet trip review? i was really looking forward to it because its one of my favorite albums. sad face
Josh Ritter is an an incredible musician and criminally underrated
If politicians were rappers, Bernie would be Kendrick and Biden would be Logic
Punks not dead, and it hasn't ever been, look at acts like: idles, pup, fidlar, Jeff rosenstock, not to mention that punk culture is still among the most influential counter cultures: doc martens, plaid pants, chains. Not to mention that almost every local diy scene is comprised of almost entirely punk bands or at least heavily influenced by punk. And lastly the resurgence of noise and dissonance: acts like 100gecs and death grips that borrow heavily from punk.
Owen W
How did you rank your 10/10 albums while doing the decade-end list? Since you (ostensibly) love all of them as much as you can love an album.
Lcd Soundsytems music, while great, is only good for dancing if you wanna dance on your own. Their songs are either too melancholic or take so long to build up that if you put on an LCD track at a party, people will get bored before the song gets interesting.
Harvey Greene
danny brown should become a shining example in the hip hop community and across the music industry about how he has managed to overcome his substance abuse while remaining a talented rapper, possibly influencing newer generation rappers to follow suit.
unknowngeek777
Lil Wayneâs I am not a human being part 2 is a worse album than Angelic 2 the Core
Max Limit
Elaborating a little, the version you listened to was missing 4 songs (Bye Bye Baby feat. Mykki Blanco, Chakras feat. The-Dream, Last Name feat. Ant Clemons, City in the Sky feat. Ty$/070 Shake/Desiigner/The-Dream/Kid Cudi) and some previously unheard guest verses (Cudi on The Storm, Young Thug/Ty$ on Hurricane, Quavo/Offset on Alien)
Billie Eilish is overrated.
Harvey Greene
since he is going to be spending the next good quarter of his life as a father, I feel Kanye's "born again Christian" lifestyle and sound will remain the center point of his career for the next 10 years at least.
Omar AlHashmi
Hieroglyphics' 3rd Eye Vision is the definitive best hip hop group album. It had great production for its time, interesting and genuinely funny bars, as well getting to know all of the members and their styles with those short tracks dedicated to each member.
King 810 is underrated. Although some of the writing is trash.
Riley Schmedeman
i think (julian casablancas +) the Voidz go vastly under appreciated as some of their music sounds nothing like what most rock bands are doing right now. Julians vocal style is super weird and their lo fi style on Tyranny is one of the more strange production choices Iâve seen for a popular rock band. Also Human Sadness is one of the best songs of the decade no lie
superdude75561
Why does no one talk about Endless? It sparks vibrancy, soul, passion, and intimacy. The instrumentals are innovative and blissful, with Franks vocals and lyrics being euphoric, tearjerking, and energetic, sometimes even all at once. It was my favorite album of the decade, and it really deserves more notority than it gets, being overshadowed by Blonde, the critical acclaim of Channel ORANGE, and the influence Nostalgia had. Sure, it may not be as grand, influenical, or impactful, but it sure is just as good, if not better than all his albums and mixtapes.
shramp
Not all âChristian musicâ is bad. There is the genre of âChristian musicâ which is the boring worship music that weâre usually referring to, and then thereâs music made by Christians that is faith inspired, like much of Kendrick Lamarâs music, Twenty One Pilots, and even pre-Jesus Is King Kanye made some good faith inspired music. Thereâs also a lot of classic country and folk music thatâs Christian that is a lot of fun to listen to. And lots of classical music was written as praises to God. If you really look into it, the bland contemporary Christian music that weâre used to today really makes up a small percentage of âChristian musicâ in the grand scheme of things.
Max Limit
Since the last time you checked it out, the rest of Yandhi has leaked, and now that we have it in its entirety, I can easily say that it's one of Kanye's best works.
Would you agree Keane-Hope and Fears is the best album that they have made?
Dennis Vilensky
Tough Question category: if an artist released a full album but has some leftover tracks they want to release, what's your preferred method of this release? Examples: deluxe edition of the album with bonus tracks, an EP of extra content, or just released as singles?

Billie Eilish as the new Bond theme singer doesn't bode well considering last time with Sam Smith. Her sound is great but doesn't fit the Bond sound, and this might be a bad move if diverting from tradition since Sam Smith's disastrous theme

Relapse is one of the best albums in Eminemâs discography and is severely underrated
