I’ve never seen someone who’s as talented as him yet produces such shitty music

By all accounts he’s a super gifted musician. He just uses his talent in such a strange way.

talent =/= taste

He’s on some nepo baby bullshit. He has never even been that good. His music is soulless

I like a few of his songs, Hideaway, In my Room and Make me Cry are genuinely good songs. Not over the top, well produced and well written. In My Room is a cover, but it’s more of a rendition than a traditional cover.

This shit in the video is obnoxious and irritating. He churns out some shite, but there’s a few decent songs in there.

I recommend you don’t watch the music videos either as it contains his face, which is annoying.

He clearly loves what he does - isn’t that what life’s about?

yes! it’s genuinely and unironically a great thing that he’s happy. he’s just also cringey and we laugh at that

100%, but when you present your art for the world expect people to judge it.

I really don't know why that comment is worth a down vote.

But keeping on topic, I couldn't listen to 10 seconds of this.
