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

Being a left-winger certainly doesn't hurt him, especially since people love it when high-profile individuals agree with their political opinions (hence why basically every celebrity not known for being conservative has come out to shill for the Democrats or what-have-you).
Not really true. 2020s era leftist whites in America are the modern equivalent of a minstrel show in which they shuck and jive and unconvincingly pretend to be black for an audience that still fundamentally hates them at best, thinks they're a mildly entertaining but forgettable clown at worst. He's only just barely tolerated by those he panders to even on his best days.
 
He's also reposting random tweets about Kanye, not archiving these.
Funny how people who post about how we need to take mental health seriously and have empathy for “neurodivergent” people immediately dunk on the most visibly mentally ill person on the planet. Also, mental illness isn’t just an excuse for bad behavior it’s an excuse for murder.

But I think the biggest thing behind Fantano's audience is that he appears to combine the best of both worlds regarding expertise: he's not an industry insider who will spend half the video sperging about the production process and the history of music (like your average video essayist) but he has reviewed so many different genres of music over the years that he gives the impression of being very knowledgeable and reliable.

The fact that his numbers don't necessarily always line up with what you might see on Pitchfork etc., and that he is pretty wary about giving scores over about a 7 further makes people think of him as a rational and sensible listener whose opinions aren't swayed by current trends. As a result, his tard fanbase feels more comfortable using him as the basis for their music taste. (That is, I have seen people comment that they like their favorite albums/songs/artist less after he gave them a lower rating, lol)
the thing i've always found funny about fantano is that he doesn't know anything about music production. When i was making shitty drum and bass in college it gave me a rudimentary understanding of how music works, fantano is someone who postures greatly about his expertise being based on his knowledge of how things work, but it's very clear to me, an uneducated rube, that he is just posturing. i would bet dollars to donuts he does not know what an envelope is.

the internet being taken over by indians has perhaps made the guru syndrome a bit less noticeable but its pretty obvious if you know a little bit about what he's talking about

He would have a horrible time making his own music even if he tries. He is a poser and a loser.
 
What kind of petty faggot gets all indignant about what Kanye’s posting? Everyone knows he’s a nitrous abusing schizophrenic. You really dunked on this mentally ill coon, Fantano. Way to go, pal. You better at least be getting paid to look this pathetic.
The leftist hierarchy of virtue signaling puts Nazis bad over protect the neurodivergent

If a 5 year old kid did a seig heil Anthony would be the first in line to stomp it.
 
I think virtue signaling like this actually radicalized a lot of people out of spite.

I just want to say, with the reveal death grips is done, I really hope Fantano kills himself.

This perfectly illustrates that this bald nigger just cynically says leftist talking points he thinks his libtard audience will like.
Literally , in his next video, he congratulates the singer Chapell Roan for critizing the lack of healthcare coverage for artists in the music industry. So that's a serious matter, but you get to dunk on a clearly mentally ill guy for leftist brownie points?

All of the talk about the importance of mental health disappears the second someone starts to inconvenience them or make them uncomfortable.
You never see this happen quicker than when the topic is about some white school shooter. Suddenly they're all ready to mock and post shit like "muh mEnTaL hEaLtH" when it turns out and is brought up that the shooter was on three different SSRIs and anti-psychotics, and that the school and authorities had been warned how nuts he was well in advance.

No bad tactics, just bad targets.
