Subjectivity on Trial
Listen now
Description
If you have listened to our podcast in the past, you know that subjectivity is a common theme. Some people--*cough* Milan *cough*--seem to struggle with what is a fact versus opinion when it comes to music. When it comes to hip hop debates, separating what we like from what is objectively bad can sometimes be challenging. In this episode, we make subjectivity the main focus to solve this disagreement once and for all. At least that was the hope. We failed miserably, but there was plenty of debate and maybe, just maybe, some points were made here that help you distinguish what is your personal preference from what is just, by pure definition, good or bad music. #PullUpAChair, press play, and leave a comment with your thoughts.
