I'm pretty sure that album's era is when the core of her current fanbase started reading too hard between the lines of her music to try and psychoanalyze her so they can relate more to the billionaire musician who grew up in a mansion with a studio.
Honestly, I’d say that moment came when folks tried to look for clues and Easter eggs to decode Taylor using the music to say that she’s gay.


Todd is very, very wrong for thinking that Reputation is Taylor's least popular. Everyone I know has that album in their top 5 or even top 3.
And Todd's gotta be experiencing some form of memory loss because he was there when people's opinions started turning on her while her core fanbase grew more parasocial and reverent towards her.
I don’t know if Todd is trying to not anger the fanbase, or if he’s trying to analyze trends, but I have to feel like this is another one of those times where I’m reminded that lots of folks look to Todd when it comes to opinions on music, and wonder how we got to that point.

It might be Column A there. For me, when this is your only schtick and personality in YouTube, you at least gotta remember the pertinent details you were there to experience and perceive. I understand this is just a throwaway tweet but this same forgetfulness has been part of his videos for a while now

Here’s the million dollar question: does he try to present it as if it’s not?
While he does make some self-deprecating jokes, he still presents himself as an authority on pop music. Despite constantly getting his predictions wrong, he makes them and does so in a way where he's acting like he has all of this knowledge about trends and the industry that he can make these calls, and for the most part is wrong. And after over 15 years of this, he still hasn't learned his compass doesn't point the right way.
 
He named a song from 2020…his best hit song from 2024. Even if you were to eliminate the “year of release” (dis)qualifier, I still feel like that’s reaching (or even beyond) the point to where it feels like cheating to include it.

This still annoys me, but yet again, Todd hasn't been sticking to rules the past few years at all anyway.
Also: "As a trans lesbian" I stopped reading right there. I could not give less of a shit.
 
Went to listen to the podcast and had to turn it off. What the fuck happened to Lena's voice it's painful to listen to. Is this a schmorky fake troon voice or HRT?!
 
Dany got boob implants and has been on HRT for awhile. He's broken records for insufferability.
Oh right that's what his name was I completely forgot. Dude shouldn't have fucked with his voice its pure ear rape now my god. Oh well guess I'll just follow Todd's channel and not the podcast.
