The Internet's Most Controversial Music Critic: Anthony Fantano | Vice Culture Club Ep 2

We speak with Anthony Fantano, the internet's busiest music nerd. He is one of the last great music critics left. Love him or hate him, people want to hear what he has to say about their favorite bands' music. We get into algorithms and the death of monoculture. Fantano fights back about there not being a song of the summer and crowns a song for 2025. We talk about the end of rap in the billboard top 40, boyband comebacks, hyper pop, and if ska will ever return. Fantano breaks down what it will take for Kanye to come back and be reviewed by him. In the end we play some games. Fantano rates our host’s Spotify wrapped and plays real or fake with music genres. #theneedledrop #anthonyfantano #kanyewest Click here to subscribe to VICE: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE About VICE: The Definitive Guide To Enlightening Information.
