Anthony Fantano / TheNeedleDrop - "The Internet's Busiest Music Nerd"™, heelturned since 2017, slowly becoming smug SJW, threw Sam Hyde under the bus

Case in point: Tyler the creator gets positive reviews with lyrics like:

I'm the type to put you down to bring myself up
So when I rape a bitch I hold her down and get my best nut


and gets praised, meanwhile a korean guy makes a song lightly roasting women over scott pilgrim and Fantano goes on a twitter spree about how horrible/misogynist and incel it is.
I think there's a tier list coded in the universe for what musicians can and can't talk about or what is cancellable behavior. And I think it might go something like this.
F: Whitey, Drugs, Murder, Respecting your country, killing members of your race.
D: Objectifying women (only if you're black, all others move up to C), Advocating communism, Rape, conspiracy theories.
C: Faggots, Troons, criticizing black culture unapologetically.
B: Feat. artistis that have achieved tiers C-S., Having video evidence of raping children.
A: Questioning the philosophy and ethics of your time. Criticizing women (if you're not black), not doing a heel-turn on content you made before the last five years.
S: Jews

I am sorry but I died laughing at this post because the top pick is jews and your username is "(((I am not a jew)))."

Also you forgot offensive comedy on that list
 
Fantano put Kid Rock and Tom McDonald's albums on his Worst List to the surprise of no one. Hearing him going on about how McDonald's music is full of fallacies was pretty humorous.

Kid Rock actually has the luxury of making bad albums because he doesn’t apologize for who he is, even if Fantano is only judging the music based on his political affiliations. Plus. if I recall, Tom McDonald was at one point censored by his own label for putting out music that actually criticized and chastised people for having ”white guilt” for daring to say that all white rappers are not good.

The fact that Tom was actually pulled off from his label, even if his music gets labeled cringeworthy, is a lot more bold from him that whatever Worst Music List Fantano has to put out regularly.
 
Is it wrong that at this point I think Fantano is only grifting this much to cover the fact he probably most definitely had a hardcore slave roleplay fantasy he coerced his ex-wife into taking part in at some point?
That's the only way someone can be this much of a faggot.

Anyone notice how it's these same retired hardcore edgelords that are now becoming the biggest yuppie-sponsored fascist assholes?
I think the main takeaway from the last 10 years of the internet is if there are people who are super autistic and forceful publicly on a successful platform about how pro-freedom they are, they're just an insecure selfish faggot trying to make a buck. If they are that same faggot now patting themselves on the back at taking to task every slight against modern corporate clown-world taste, they're just trying to make another buck and they should be publicly euthanized.
However if you're just a dude who likes to say gamer words and enjoy decent comedy now and then and don't feel the need to make 30 minute videos talking about your love for the word nigger or going out of your way to hang out with edgelords, odds are you're not going to a complete waste of a human being five years from now.
 
So, apparently, news just came out that Tory Lanez was found guilty for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot:

But while the news was being updated, Fantano just went ballistic almost making the news about him on Twitter:

Put it short, Melon needs to calm down. Megan is not going to notice you.
 
Tom MacDonald's music sucks the fattest of ass, but Fantano saying "if you look like this, you'll love this album" is prejudice by definition. It's unbelievable that there was no sort of "oh wait" moment on his part.
If I looked like fantano I would liking a lot of black people too.
 
That's funny, but what the fuck is her record company doing pressing LPs at 45rpm?
I was wondering that too, and I can't find a decent explanation. According to this random magazine I found, it was the album being two hours long which made them cut it to four discs, with them not wanting one disc to have less on one side then the other, so they cut at 45rpm to make the LP look prettier.
Ironically, a lot of ultra high-end record labels cut albums at 45rpm due to the faster speeds giving improved fidelity (more high-frequencies iirc.)
Surprised they didn't advertise that fact.

I haven't asked this. But does he even have a metric for the music he listens to? I know music is subjective, but how does he even rate an albums' quality? Did he ever have a proper critical review of anything? Has he critiqued the bass, vocals, production, track-arrangement, FUCKING ANYTHING?
Is the only value-system for decent music for him how many niggers made it?
I'm both legitimately curious but also know the answer already.

When reviewing music becomes your full time job I'd imagine the reviews themselves become nails that need to be hammered as opposed to the neatly crafted passionate analyses he started out making. According to Google, Melon has been making music reviews professionally since 2007. That's 16 whole ass years of cramming every album he possible could to meet his quotas. I'd imagine he gave up on trying to add anything new to the conversation a long time ago.

In other words, Melon probably does have standards and opinions, but trying to express them is futile because he has to pump out multiple reviews a week. Either that or he's just a pseud hipster retard who's in too deep.
 
I asked ChatGPT to make an Anthony Fantano review transcript, which I've edited slightly for comedic effect.

[Intro music]

Hey guys, it's your favorite music critic here, Copethony Seethetano, and I'm back with another album review for you. Today, we're taking a listen to the latest release from folk-pop artist Anthony Fontana.

[Music clip from 'Rise and Fall']

Right off the bat, we're hit with the upbeat 'Rise and Fall,' a track that showcases Fontana's smooth vocals and catchy lyrics. The folky guitar riffs and sing-along chorus make it a standout track on the album.

[Music clip from 'Spiraling']

But Fontana isn't just a one-trick pony. He also shows off his softer side on tracks like 'Spiraling,' a beautiful ballad that showcases his emotive voice. This guy can really do it all.

[Music clip from 'Out of Time']

One of the standout moments on the album for me was the track 'Out of Time.' It's a hauntingly beautiful song that highlights Fontana's songwriting skills. The lyrics are poignant and the music is sparse and stripped down, allowing Fontana's raw talent to shine.

[Conclusion]

Overall, I think this is a must-listen album for fans of folk and pop music. Anthony Fontana has truly outdone himself with this release and it's clear that he is a talented artist with a bright future ahead. If you're into this kind of music, I highly recommend giving it a listen.

[Outro music]

Even computers know he's a hack now.

Impressive, but ai still has a bit to go if it's forgetting to put in a section where he questions why he, as a white man, should be able to properly review the album. It also didn't filter in the moment where he realizes every black he idolizes actually hates him for being a coal-burning faggot.
