Breaking News: Does Swift Deserve All The Critics And Hate She’s Getting This Days
I am not a professional musician, but I have been a music fan as long as I can remember, probably bought 1,000–2,000 records/tapes/CDs in the last 50 years. Studied piano and guitar almost as long, composing/arranging/performing my own music since about 40 years ago. My favorite genre is rock, also love classical and metal, really respect some classic blues and country and folk. Love Broadway musicals. Respect jazz even though I cannot really play it. I’ll crank Ramones and Dream Theater and Danny Gatton and Mozart. I care about music, and have cared about it for half a century, as an amateur and fan.
I rejoice in the success of musicians whose work i respect, like, or love, including most of the most successful musicians who ever lived.
I had heard of swift years ago, but only heard her recordings recently. My youngest daughter is on a Swift kick and plays her stuff around me all the time these days.
Her voice seems okay – I don’t notice her using autotune – and the production is slick and polished. That’s all the good I have noticed.
I don’t hear anything worthwhile in the writing, though. Her chord progressions are banal. Her arrangements are “putting lipstick on a pig” (trying to prettify something that she should really have just abandoned). Her vocal melodies are trite and extremely simplistic, like you would teach to preschoolers (think “Wheels on the Bus” simplistic; “Happy Birthday to You” is more advanced than anything I’ve heard by her). And I don’t hear any effort to come up with original or interesting music or melodies, either.
In simple terms, I feel insulted as a musician when I hear her. It’s not jealousy – as I said, I love it when *good* music is recognized and rewarded. It’s like being served a shit sandwich and being told that I am required to eat and enjoy it, because that’s all that is being served. It’s like learning to love comic books from reading ElfQuest and Watchmen and the Sandman, then learning all the library carries is Archie and Richie Rich. It’s like learning to like television based on shows like Alpha House or Freaks and Geeks, then being forced.

Jeanine Pirro stunned fans with a bold declaration: not only did she call The Charlie Kirk Show “one of the most powerful and inspiring programs on television,” but she also confirmed she will join Erika Kirk and Megyn Kelly on the next broadcast. Her announcement immediately added fuel to the fire, signaling that the show’s momentum was only just beginning. Stunned silence turned into frantic whispers at ABC headquarters when the numbers came in: The Charlie Kirk Show had done the unthinkable, pulling in over 1 billion views in just days. Executives, who expected a bold debut but nothing earth-shattering, suddenly found themselves staring at statistics so massive that some questioned whether they were even real. Behind the closed doors of the network’s glass towers, panic reportedly spread—because with numbers this big comes a dangerous question: who actually controls the future of television now? Was it Erika Kirk, Megyn Kelly, and now Jeanine Pirro rewriting history, or a cultural wave too powerful for ABC to manage? Viewers around the world are asking if this show is just entertainment—or the start of something far bigger. Full details below 👇👇👇
“YOU WERE BEATEN — PAY NOW!” — Travis Kelce sues Karoline Leavitt and Network for $50 MILLION after shocking live attack. No one saw it coming. What seemed like a normal live television interview after Travis Kelce’s game and charity appearance turned into chaos when Karoline Leavitt suddenly launched a verbal assault on the Kansas City star. Instead of discussing his football, philanthropy, and upcoming community projects, she attacked his character, calling him hypocritical and questioning the “system” he represents as one of the NFL’s most respected and socially active athletes. Kelce, who had just demonstrated once again why he is celebrated as one of the league’s most consistent and influential competitors, proved that his strength extends far beyond the field. Known for his composure and principled stance on social issues, he remained calm in the face of the confrontation. His measured response in that heated moment — followed now by a $50 million lawsuit — shows that the battles off the field may be every bit as intense and consequential as the ones fought under the stadium lights.
