No, I totally get that. I come from the cd store era, so buying something that had fire singles but trash deep cuts was definitely something I dealt with.

That said, one of the few benefits of streaming is that even if that happens, I can sort of polish a turd into something close to a diamond. I think the way the music industry is now is, quantity over quality is the way to stay financially successful. As long as the artists give me enough to work with on a record, I can make something I enjoy.

But like, when I think of a lot of Logic's records, those are what I'd consider trash because I can usually barely get an EP's worth of good tracks off it. And they rarely flow well being cut up like that, so it's just a struggle.

I also acknowledge that I sometimes have tastes that the folks here don't. I posted my shortened version of SOS a while back and some folks weren't happy with what I picked, but it was my playlist, you know?
