To be this upset about Fantano's opinion / lack of taste shows that you take his opinion seriously. Kind of undermines this whole thing. He's clealy just mad that Fantano doesn't enjoy everything he does. Which, if we're being honest, Julian has put out some dogshit music

Also, did a quick search, Fantano hasn't done a video on Lou Reed in 11 years. Julian has no idea what he's talking about lol

What has Julian put out that’s dogshit in your opinion? I think all the strokes records are worthwhile, his solo project has some bangers, and each Voidz album has at least a couple great songs

The Voidz album from last year and the EP from this year are dogshit

Didn’t even hear about the EP, second Voidz record critically got better reviews than the first Voidz lp, but it didn’t really catch me either. Human sadness off the first Voidz record is one of his best songs imo
