Izzy, Beethoven's first 5 symphonies were panned badly. His famous 5th may have been criticized the most; the original orchestra initially played it as a comic piece. Maybe you need to stop being so narcissistic and myopic, and learn to listen to something beyond your narrow scope. ...I've sung High Mass at the Vatican, been on stage with the greatest opera singers of the 20th century, sung the most significant choral music of the Renaissance, played the finest Jazz there is, etc etc etc. But I have also played Bluegrass, Irish Trad, and similar folkloric genres from all over the world, and had my music sampled on Hip Hop tracks. But I still love me some Black Betty Jamalamala. Shame on you for throwing shade when the problem is your inability to see beyond yourself.

Mima,

Live meat, for one..
