Posts like this are just as obnoxious. Literally a hot take.
How is what I said a hottake? I'm pointing out that this is the same thing we go through when a thread pops up about a semi-famous/famous person and a bunch of people race to post "Who?" in a bizarre attempt to downplay something as if it makes them seem superior or something.
Same shit here, no one cares if you've never heard of this person before because A) Google exists, and B) that's not the point of the thread.
Furthermore, no one cares what you think about the state of mainstream (also if something's mainstream, its actually weirder that you haven't heard anything about it) music nowadays, because, again, it's not relevant.
