I'd argue she only has two albums that are phenomenal from front to back but I feel like her deep cuts often go unnoticed by the general public because they hear her hits like Into You and Problem and thank u, next and think that's all she has to offer. It's actually insane how good some of her deep cuts are.

I’m a huge Taylor swift fan but I kinda agree with you. When she released folklore and evermore my entire taste in music shifted. I was always someone who was more into lyrics (that’s why I love Taylor in the first place) but with those albums it became amplified. To me midnights was a setback lyrically, though it does have its moments. you’re on your own kid and midnight rain are stand outs to me personally. I think when her focus veers into having a pop hit or a #1 that’s when it gets bad. In the fandom it’s a known thing that Taylor picks the worst singles. She goes for catchy instead of lyrical to get that radio hit. So the general public that doesn’t go out of their way to listen to anything other than her singles don’t think her lyrics are anything special. And maybe that’s her fault to some extent. But I hope her new album goes back to focusing on lyrics and she leaves the pop star thing behind for a while and just focuses on being an artist.

@@thema1998 I personally really liked it. I think it sits on a very interesting line between having slight pop moments and then having the more lyric focused moments. She put a lot of her humor into that record that I don’t think someone that’s just a casual Taylor swift enjoyer would understand and brush it off as simple or cringe writing. Although there are two songs I think were just plain unnecessary on the record and the lyrics give me second hand embarrassment. But overall I think it shows an interesting side of her lyric and storytelling ability. The production of the album is a completely different thing though because although we get some unique moments I definitely think she needs to change it up more when it comes to production. I really don’t think she was chasing a pop hit or moment on this record though. There’s no overly repetitive pop choruses to be sung over a tik tok dance challenge. Which is why I think her younger audience isn’t vibing with this record as much because I think lyrically and production wise it’s her most scathingly grown up record.

People don’t talk enough about how wilfully ignorant a lot of pop stans can be just because a song is “catchy”, yeah but so is chlamydia I appreciate Fantano for speaking his mind and not being afraid to give something a negative review, I feel like a lot of mainstream outlets are afraid to say anything negative for fear of exactly this bs

Happy you made this video, a couple points: 1) I don't think it's unfair to say Taylor Swift is like Drake. She's better and more consistent than Drake, can make some genuinely great music, and produces hits just by putting her name on it. And they appeared in an Apple commercial together so for me, that seals it. 2) Does no one else find it EXTREMELY SUS that Tate McCrae went from sad girl Gen Zer to hyper sexual pop star in like...a minute? She's a legitimate example of an industry plant and everything with her feels so calculated. That being said, sure, I like a song here and there, but man...to defend her to the death is an indicator you're NPC, I'm sorry.

So with Beyoncé, I never really got the hype. I’ve listened to some of her most critically acclaimed stuff and it all has an aura of sameness. I’ll say she’s a crazy inventive performer but I just have never really felt her music, and she started a lot of musical trends that I’m not a fan of, she’s just not my cup of tea.

I think being known by other younger people in the dance social media world helped Tate McRae a lot in her singer-songwriter phase. She’s solid, I think this commercial style is flattering for her.

I still play tracks from both albums. All said, I still mostly agree with your assessment and fully appreciate your opinion.

Fantano said Kanye’s album was unreviewable. Kanye’s album is number one. They always give good albums bad reviews.

Not a fan of Cardi or Megan tbh, actually I'd go as far as saying I can't stand them. Little Simz on the other hand; absolutely phenomenal

he gave two albums made by women, one of which is literally a top-tier female rage album, 10s and they think he hates women

Two labels people use for others they don't like that have never made sense to me as negatives are "transphobe" and "misogynist" like being those things are supposed to be bad things.

The taylor swift , drake comparison was perfect

Why not both? Tho tbf if I think somethings bad I’ll criticize it no matter who made it male or female

You managed to vocalize my chaotic thoughts about Swift and Drake perfectly. Thank you!

Got called sexist because I don’t like Taylor Swift but I rather Listen to Debbie Harry or Joan Jett her fan base doesn’t help this case

I love sia, Enya, the cranberries, miley Cyrus, etc. but most pop and female rap honestly tends to be 1 dimensional songs that are about how the "singer" has all the guys chasing them. Then there are talented people I don't care for like Beyoncé because it's not my cup of tea. I don't like men that make soulless music either and tbh there's more men in music that I don't like than women. Take rap for example. Since the 90s rap songs that aren't about gangbanging, partying, dr*gs, or s*x are rarer than diamonds so I don't like 99% of new hip-hop. In summation, mediocrity+empty lyrics= me not liking you.

I appreciate the jensen mcrae shout out I'm so obsessed with her she was my 3rd most played last year

I like the addition of a facecam 👍

Agreed. Like people are so damn misogynistic. This was a great video

I thought that you would venture in some more indie music, you just talked about extremely pop artists and rap artists. There are so many interesting that are not that unknown but are not extremely popular female artists like Florence Welsh, Carly Rae Jepsen, Haim and others that fly a little bit under the radar like The Staves, Alice Merton and Amy Macdonald

What do you think about the Renaissance album?

focusrite scarlett input light on in the background lol

I wished you mentioned more lesser known female singer-songwriters/musicians.

07:25 I’m very sexually libertarian yet hip hop hoochification is played out. No other genre of music has 99% of the women hyper sexualized.

I can say with a resounding yes to both

5:36 Massive thanks for shouting out Madison Cunningham, she deserves more widespread praise and attention, Revealer is one of the decade's best thus far

Glad you shouted out Madison Cunningham. She’s great and deserves a bigger audience!

My favorite Beyoncé song is party featuring Andre 3000

Also how could you go through this and not mention Little Simz at all

this sounds incomplete, I was expecting some more names included, like billie eilish, olivia rodrigo, lorde, adele... I agree that "affirmative action" on that level doesn't really help women. If any girl got that far, 1. fantastic, and 2. she's playing in the big league already and it's ok to say if an album/a song is underwhelming

I think it just comes down to personal tastes. I don't think I'll ever see what people like about Beyonce's music, but then it's not for me. I'm not interested in music to dance to, I don't care for vocal acrobatics and I don't find her songs relatable. I don't think that makes me racist or misogynistic though as my dislike of her music has nothing to do with the colour of her skin or her gender. I'd feel exactly the same way if it were being performed by a white man. Most modern pop music just isn't my thing. I feel exactly the same way about Justin Bieber, Ed Sheeran, Justin Timberlake and a lot of other male pop singers. Out of the modern crop of pop music, there's probably only 2 or 3 artists that I actually like (The Veronicas and Poppy are the first 2 that come to mind) and a handful more that have a song or 2 that I enjoy (Miley's Wreckingball, The Weeknd's Save Your Tears and a number of others). I also don't like Kid Rock or Nickelback or Maroon 5 or Train, artists who are (or were at one point) in a genre closer to what I'd normally listen to.

That Madison Cunningham namedrop letsss gooooooo

In my opinion, I love female artists in the old days like in the 70's to 90's such as Madonna, Blondie, etc but new singers I find are just annoying because their fanbases are a bit more radical. You can't say anything negative about Taylor Swift without having an army of swifities marching at your door with pitchforks and torches calling you mysogynistic.

He’s not mysogonistic. People are dumb and get in their feelings over their Standom.

I wholeheartedly disagree about Midnights being “regressive” for Taylor as an artist. I think she’d making really good quality pop music and there is a place for that. Not everyone wants to listen to “Folklore” and “Evermore” type albums from her. She can make them and that’s great to show she has more serious artistry but I appreciate her pop music and think she’s one of the better artists doing it right now.

Honestly, people will just find any reason to hate Fantano besides just saying they don’t like his reviews. It’s fine to not like the man, but please can we stop trying to paint him as this monster of a person?

Blanketing every man who dislikes Beyoncé as racist and sexist is ridiculous.

It's not too crazy to think that someone would be turned off of an artist because everyone around them is acting like they NEED to have an opinion on them, and said opinion NEEDS to be positive. It's just making more issues. I don't care about Beyonce. it's not that deep. I don't need to spend my time praising people I don't have any interest in to avoid being called a bigot. I'd rather just enjoy what I enjoy. That's the kind of nonsense that pulls the fun out of everything.

Oh the comments are going to be spicy for this one

I was thinking about this today because my friends in highschool are say they hate Taylor Swift because she makes bad music but they don't list em to any women.

this is how I found out Tate McRae exists? smh

Female artists that I think are underrated and don't really get mentioned enough are Benee, beabadoobee and NIKI. Benee's debut album 'Hey u x" is really good, good range of features and has that alt vibe to it. Benee has a wonderful voice. beabadoobee is hella talented both vocally and musically. Beatopia is a pretty great record and her first album is pretty decent too! NIKI is someone who I think is often overlooked, she once again has a great singing voice and is also very talented with instruments. Nicole had some fantastic and very sad moments on it, the lyricism was really good. I liked the experimental vibes of Moonchild and the R&B sounds she has explored in the past Definitely worth listening to these artists

I really love your content and I can tell you are very thoughtful with the words you say, but your takes on Taylor are really hard to digest. When will the world make peace with the fact that you can appreciate your indie records and your underground artists and still being able of recognizing the talent of a mainstream artist. And btw, maybe you didn’t mean to, but comparing Taylor with drake… boy… judging from your videos and the way I’ve seen you talk about music, I expected more from you… anyways, if she didn’t receive the attention she gets nowadays, she would arguably be considered as the indie darling of all pretentious music listeners (not saying you are one, really love your videos) and she would never be tested or doubted the way she is now. I’ll keep watching your videos and just skip them whenever I see a picture of her on the cover or whenever I hear you mention her. Thanks for the work you put in making this ❤️

I agree on your commentary about being able to appreciate mainstream pop and independent & ignored smaller artists but Taylor Swift is honestly immensely overrated lol I think he did a pretty good job at showing how you can appreciate it all, he gave plenty of examples so to me this feels simply like a Tswift fanatic comment 🤷🏻‍♀️

This is the first time I've heard of Tate McRae. I am a bonafide Swiftie so I am probably biased. She's one of my favorite songwriters.

A lot of the people you have mentioned are rubsh. You should listen to Carole King, Beth Gibbons, Joni Mitchell, Roisin Murphy, ABBA, Carpenters, Elastica, Ladytron, Little Dragon, PJ Harvey, Vashti Bunyan, Jane Weaver, Catatonia.

gotta be honest Latto, Sexxyred, Ice Spice and other rising female acts nowadays doesn't have Good (like everlasting) quality. Im afraid to say this but with the body part Jiggling and sensualization make em more popular even they're not really close at being a talented icon. p.s. Tate's record is pop bland, but i do feel she has like the potential of similar aura to Britney, when she gets little adjustment with her overall production. p.p.s yes Flo Milii rocks and have the potential too to be next big female rapper.

well said

Both but one more than the other

Eh, with Megan and Cardi, it's at least partly that they are megastars from biting the style of other women like Nicky, Azealia Banks, and Cupcakke hard, and having it brushed off because they behave better...basically Cardi B is the Macklemore of raunch rap, tho in spite of it, WAP still goes hard

That Taylor and Drake comparison was pitch perfect. It's exactly how I feel about both of them - very, very talented people but kinda stuck in terms of musical evolution. For All the Dogs had some really good songs but was a boring album imo. Taylor's upcoming album feels very different to her last ten era-driven ones, so I'm certainly excited to see that musical evolution. I hope she'll be able to truly work to her potential. Also, she has a collaboration with Post Malone coming up? I've heard them compliment each other forever but I'm hesitant to see how they will work together on a song. Taylor's past collabs haven't exactly been amazing (excluding Kendrick)

using red flannel fantano in your thumbnail is nasty work

alfo media face reveal??

I don't care for anything past 1995.
