I'm sure some of you have some artists that are generally beloved by the music community but you just can't stand them.

For me it is The Mars Volta. It should be right up my alley, I like a lot of similar music but I can't get over the vocals. They sound so emo (which kinda makes sense, given the background of the vocalist) but to me it just does not fit the music at all.

Not trying to shit talk them, just wanting to share some hot takes.

I'll never understand how Kanye West has been lauded as a "genius" for so long. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad people connect with his music. Music matters, and people deserve to find stuff that they love, I'm not trying to rag on anyone's tastes. I just personally don't get it. I feel like there are some amazingly talented and creative rappers out there who don't get that level of acclaim. I've listened to a lot of his stuff, and none of it really strikes me as anything special. In fact, songs like "Bound 2" feel insultingly bad to me, but people like it, so idk. 🤷‍♂️
