Is this on the list so we know what bad music is?

If I could give it a zero I would. An album about a middle aged man in a relationship with a 14 year old should not be allowed on the list - no way his estate is getting streaming royalties from me.

A masterclass in 'Vibe-core' that finally answers the question: What if we took the 2020s trend of minimalist pop and distilled it until it was functionally a white noise machine? Produced by Jack Antonoff (who apparently now holds the exclusive patent on 'Hushed Pianos and Whispering'), this album is so mid-tempo it makes Calexico sound like Speed Metal. It’s the ultimate 'Recency Bias' inclusion—the musical equivalent of a 'Live, Laugh, Love' sign in a billionaire’s guest house. If this is a 'Must-Hear Before You Die,' I’d like to formally request an extension on my life so I can spend that 45 minutes listening to a genre the editors actually forgot existed: Disco.
