Who the fuck is saying “I don’t like rap but I like Beck”? I think you’re thinking of Eminem. I really only like the first 2 albums, but my god Beck wasn’t trying to convince anyone of shit. He did the same shit the Beastie Boys did. Odelay is one of the best albums ever not cause it samples but because it crosses so many genres without sounding like crap. This just read like another “white men shouldn’t exist cause a few of them annoy me” post. I don’t think he deserved that Grammy, but if your gonna go for Becks throat for sampling then go for everyone else’s too.
Wow! It's refreshing to read Beck criticism. I'm a fan of his earlier work but he's since lost me and any Beck fans I know can't stand hearing that he's lost his way. Winning Album of the Year in 2015 was insane. That's the Gramny's for you: give it to the boring studio album recorded in a pristine space with legendary studio musicians giving it their utmost attention to detail but who cares if the music is actually moving.
