The only requirement for having a favourite band is that you generally like their stuff more than most other bands. You are not required to study their entire discography. Just listen to whatever you want and don't worry about whether other people think you are a 'real fan' or not.
seth exactly. Some artists have a lot of records and many of them aren’t as good or as memorable. Like I can say that Rolling Stones is my favorite band without listening to their awful disco records and the other stuff they released after that. I just said they’re my favorite band I didn’t say I’m their number one fan.
Dylan Connely agreed kanye is not clout Chastine at all. He never did. Every album is something new. Kanye making a song with Lil pump to make a hit is fair for me. He dident try to make hits on his albums.
This was easily the most “serious” let’s argue I’ve seen yet. No memes, straight discussion, no off the wall questions (until the end). So naturally the next one is going to be a THATISTHEPLAN-meme fest. Keep the crowd guessing.

In regards to the analog vs digital argument: "If there's no soul in the music, it's because nobody put it there, and it's not the tool's fault" - Bjork, an artist who shared the burden of the first "DIGITAL IS SOULLESS" wave back in the day
Can i lets argue your argument for experimentation. I agree with you, but to play devils advocate i am going to rephrase the question without mentioning Eminem and say you could be rating based on the bias of experiencing the good feeling of new music. I thought kids see ghost was good for a week because it was a new sound but then i look back on it and dont like the subject matter, their ideas, and dont find much interesting to it other then it was new kanye and new cudi, which.. if i di t gve the bias of liking their eary work it would mean NOTHING to me ans i wouldnt get that feeling. Essentially my argument is its cool to acknowledge when bias and experimentatin makes u fee refreshed but if you are rating something for what it is should that stuff matter. My counterargument to this mindset is that your way of rating music is biased. You are telling us the way it made you feel. The same way theres theory to music but there is no theoritical way to take away bias and say "HA, without comparing this to anything else, pretending its the only album and judging it without bias this album is perfect". At the same time, couldnt i argue that a ten should be your favorite music, and wven tho its annoying when a band has every album sound the same buaybe they are jsut trying to perfect that souns. Because wouldnt they be compromising their artistic integrity if they switched directions to give people a new feeling? Or isnt tht was music is? Isnt that why sampling is so cool, or when brockhampton on iridescence recreates stuff we heard before in their own way. For some forms of art you need bias, you need nostalgia to exist and you need another concrete form of music to be manipulated. I guess im asking if we should seperate the how the music made us feel vs what it actually sounds like (as in if no other music existed, w.o bias how does it sound).. or are those biases what makes writing about mysic so interesting and why opinions stay fresh. (After writing that last sentence out I know where I stand - we need those bias' to keep music fresh and i think what you were trynna say is that you dont like music simply.cus its experimental but you try n find experimental music that sounds good to you!
I'd like to review Fantano's Bass Guitar Intro: Pretty Choppy, seems like he had a tenuous grasp of where he wanted to go with it. I mean it's something we've all heard before, he's done this before infrequently throughout out other videos and you would think at this point in his bass guitar intro timeline he would have progressed more. 2/5 stars.
I just ate one of the best sandwiches I have ever tasted. I just was looking for a snack to eat whilst watching this video, and so I made myself a simple ham sandwich with mayo. I just ate it and good Lord it was tasty. I don't get it I don't know what I did to make it so good.
It was riddled with poisonous bacteria which added the extra flavour. But now you are dead. Was that tasty sandwich really worth it? Was it? Please reply in ghost writing.
Kanye is a mutual clout sharer. I legit think he just likes throwing things in a blender and seeing what happens, for better or worse. Him "chasing artists," makes more sense. He's a better producer than he is a rapper.
Dude as a producer, thank you. So tired of hearing people say music from computers is bad then they listen to the latest hip hop top 100. Funny as hell
Fell asleep while watching this and had a dream about a woman outside of a building tryna get in while 2 T-Rexs are approaching. She eventually breaks a window and hops in then all I saw was her face from inside go blank and then be pulled out of the window and swallowed. Like the dream was literally from a movie it felt like I was switching camera angles and shit. Anyway, that shit was crazy, feel free to use that in a movie lol
Lol....not how the logic works my man. Clout chasing sustains his delusions of being worthy and justified in more clout chasing. It's a delusion orgy of retarded fans who call him a genius and him doing retarded things that somehow reinforce that retarded notion.....
Authentic instrumentation is generally better, but if you've ever heard Linkin Park music or Mike Shinoda's individual songs, you can see how good electronic instrumentals can be.

When you haven't heard much of the discography of one of your favourite artists... The question is "why is this one of your favourite artists?" What with certain artists really HIT you? What in music is important to you? The albums? The songs? Knowing all the lyrics? Knowing all the melodies and rhythms? The social movement? Politics? It's an individual thing, isn't it? One of my favourite artists is James Brown. I have probably not heard even ten percent of his discography. But it isn't his ability to create perfect albums that I love. It's his voice, persona, some of his funkiest and most soulful songs, his moves, his whole presence. I think Tom Waits has delivered a lot better albums as a whole than James Brown usually did, although he has delivered great albums too. But James Brown is a way bigger influence on me personally. I don't care about his less good stuff. It doesn't take the attention way from what I love about his music. He's one of my absolute favourites. He's not the one I know the most about. But he's been diggin into my soul with his funk. It's there, and it can't be removed.
i always think that people who feel the need to bash electronic (in lieu of "authentic) instrumentation all smell like ranch dressing, or maybe stale corn chips
Disco Donn Kanye understands art.. it’s about ideas and it’s about sharing those ideas or make something creative with them or learn from the past or the present and show respect for it in different way with trying to make something original with it .. but I can be wrong I am sadly so not a artist.. life right..! 😔😁😜
About the favorite band thing, I guess it could be defined as the band who made the person’s favorite song, I don’t have a problem with that. But at the same time, someone could say it is the one band from which they like the most stuff. It’s down to how you feel honestly but my point is that it’s reasonable to say your favorite band is one of which you haven’t heard much.
You know, that answer explaining why musicians really struggle with getting out there in this decade really resonated with me. I really needed some confirmation that other people are feeling how I feel. I have toured twice at the beginning of the decade and I want to get back out there, but I can't take the risk anymore. I'm 28 and I need to be able to pay rent and eat anything. The game has changed a bit, and I'm not sure I know how to catch up. Sometimes I wonder if I failed. But at least now I know, it's not just me.
I think it's good to use 6ix9ine as a new example for the art v artist debate. I've written a few articles about the art v artist debate, but I think 6ix9ine gives a different perspective. I think his music is trash, and I've only argued about separating art and the artists when I like their product. But what happens when you legitimately hate the material an artist puts out while also disagreeing with the artist? Should this be given less weight than controversial artists that you like? We can make caveats for people that we love that are total shitbags, but should it be any different for people that also produce art that we hate? I think this would be really interesting to explore.
If you hate the art an artist puts out and you hate the artist the best thing to do is just ignore the artist. If enough people do this, he/she will eventually go away.
Thought of Buckethead as soon as you talked about artists with comically large discographies. I love the guy and his playing but I doubt I'll ever in my life listen to every piece of music he's put out.
Andrew Jackson Jihad is one of my favourite bands, there's a huge emotional connection there too, just about as deep as you could imagine, so I definitely bought your point about only listening to the classic stuff
You can get sample packs of instruments and yes playing guitar in myself is better for me because ive been playing for like 5 years longer than the 3 years ive been producing. But Kontakt has an insane musical sample library, realistic drums, and omnisphere allows you access to soo many popular samples along with expansion packs you can buy to update the sounds. Hell even ezdrummer allows you to make a drum track in 5 minutes.
What dictates what your favorite artist is just what artist you enjoy listening to the most. Maybe I've only heard those three albums by Pink Floyd but keep coming back to them again and again, and enjoy those three albums more than any other bands entire discography, who's to say they can't be my favorite band? Having a favorite artist is not the same as being an expert on said artist.
The only thing necessary for a band to be your favorite is that you like more of their stuff than any other band. If the only rock songs you vibe with are We Will Rock You, Under Pressure, and We Are the Champions then Queen is you favorite rock band, simple as that.
Yeah I agree that real instruments are always best if you can play them and have the means to record them, but you'd be amazed at how realistic some sample libraries today sound. Recently they started rolling out physically modelled software - no samples but is programmed to generate the sounds of an instrument, such as SWAM instruments or IK Multimedia's Modobass, it's crazy.
Lol overvalue originality? 😂😂 I can't even say I'm surprised by someone saying that because we live in a decade now where originality is shunned by people who just want to hear the latest generic Trap single.
I agree but when it comes to the point the music sounds like shit and it's being purposefully done for the sake of "originanality" I think that's too far
Agh, when you mentioned the super gigantic discography of an artist that even huge fans may never hear, I immediately though "Jeez, who is that really besides Buckethead?" And then you cited him ha I agree with most of this round, Anton!
LETS ARUGE: Tupac and Biggie are overrated. They’re better rappers with lyricist, storytelling, and word play, etc. Since Pac and Biggie died in their prime their fans overrate them, Not saying their music is bad but fans overrate them.
8:20 I think the thing about this is: "experemeintal" has a positive or neutral connotation to it, and so it will be used in a positive or neutral way on average or better albums. Whereas words like "goofy" or "weird" will be used on bad experemeintal albums. Does this make sense? I don't know.
the gentification tweet irked me in the sense that class struggle and rich kids coming in and hijacking is nothing new at all and not unique to the 2010s.
This record is TRASH & I cannot believe he hoped on this record with a co-sign This man needs an intervention someone needs lock him in a room & make him listen to all the standards he was taking in all his old stuff “I guess the money should’ve changed em I guess I should’ve forgot where I came from” #MakeKanyeGreatAgain

8:06 I knew the buckethead mention was coming. Still made me smile though, he is one of my favorites.
LET’S ARGUE greta van fleet is just boneless led zeppelin.
Just wanted to say I really enjoy the content you post on this channel, keep it up G

You know, that answer explaining why musicians really struggle with getting out there in this decade really resonated with me. I really needed some confirmation that other people are feeling how I feel. I have toured twice at the beginning of the decade and I want to get back out there, but I can't take the risk anymore. I'm 28 and I need to be able to pay rent and eat anything. The game has changed a bit, and I'm not sure I know how to catch up.
Sometimes I wonder if I failed. But at least now I know, it's not just me.
YOU FINALLY MENTION BUCKETHEAD THANK YOU! Now review a record damn it
Great video Anthony, but the video could've gone without the whole killthony blackstano part.
Its probably good that I can't afford to be an artist because I probably suck!
I think it's good to use 6ix9ine as a new example for the art v artist debate. I've written a few articles about the art v artist debate, but I think 6ix9ine gives a different perspective. I think his music is trash, and I've only argued about separating art and the artists when I like their product. But what happens when you legitimately hate the material an artist puts out while also disagreeing with the artist? Should this be given less weight than controversial artists that you like? We can make caveats for people that we love that are total shitbags, but should it be any different for people that also produce art that we hate? I think this would be really interesting to explore.
Quality comment.
If you hate the art an artist puts out and you hate the artist the best thing to do is just ignore the artist. If enough people do this, he/she will eventually go away.
LET'S ARGUE: Anderson .Paak -- Oxnard is underhyped
Well he hasn't promoted it a ton
Underhyped? Like what does that even mean?
I don't know who this is but I agree
How? A quick search shows recent articles written about it. I'm sure it'll pick up more traction once out. Paak delivers.
When is it coming out?
This is the first LET'S ARGUE episode I've seen where the thumbnail is not the first tweet Melon discussed in the video
LETS ARGUE Russ is the GOAT of mediocrity.
AGREE
lets argue: anthony fantano is a views chaser...
Everybody who gives their opinions in TH-cam videos thinking that anyone else cares is a views chaser.
@@loganleatherman7647 these videos do well and people enjoy seeing them so I wouldn't see why he wouldn't keep making these videos
Damn, Totino's Hard Rock Joe really bounced back.
Lmao I knew that intro reminded me of something
Thought of Buckethead as soon as you talked about artists with comically large discographies. I love the guy and his playing but I doubt I'll ever in my life listen to every piece of music he's put out.
But Lil Pump DID sing on his track “Lil Pump”
This comment would like to bring up current events considering the title of the video
I've always wanted melon to talk about buckethead. I guess this is all that I'll get.
Andrew Jackson Jihad is one of my favourite bands, there's a huge emotional connection there too, just about as deep as you could imagine, so I definitely bought your point about only listening to the classic stuff
Machine Gun Kelly should drop everything and become a farmer with how corny his diss track was.
I can appreciate that bass line for your intro, you're really good at bass!
Every single *lick* of Buckethead.
Like, a guitar lick?
Anthony, you're better than these puns.
You can get sample packs of instruments and yes playing guitar in myself is better for me because ive been playing for like 5 years longer than the 3 years ive been producing. But Kontakt has an insane musical sample library, realistic drums, and omnisphere allows you access to soo many popular samples along with expansion packs you can buy to update the sounds. Hell even ezdrummer allows you to make a drum track in 5 minutes.
Danny1243 nexus is better fuck you
People really out here saying Kamikaze is better than Veteran 😂
GPrice2000 that’s what bias does to you
That worries me.
Whose album is veteran?
Piyush Vaidya JPEGMAFIA's
never even heard of the other artist soooo lol
Someone who doesn’t listen to a lot of music can have a favorite artist even if they don’t know all/a lot of their discography
I would love to hear you just slap the bass for an hour straight some day.....
you could take away a 'b' from your sentence and it'd still work
Stop lying. You want them cheeks clapped.
Go watch Davie504's slap bass livestream. He slapped the bass for hours until RHCP's flea noticed him.
What dictates what your favorite artist is just what artist you enjoy listening to the most. Maybe I've only heard those three albums by Pink Floyd but keep coming back to them again and again, and enjoy those three albums more than any other bands entire discography, who's to say they can't be my favorite band? Having a favorite artist is not the same as being an expert on said artist.
Digital software?, show me analog software melon
The only thing necessary for a band to be your favorite is that you like more of their stuff than any other band. If the only rock songs you vibe with are We Will Rock You, Under Pressure, and We Are the Champions then Queen is you favorite rock band, simple as that.
LETS ARGUE:
my dad is sleeping with my sleeping
Yeah I agree that real instruments are always best if you can play them and have the means to record them, but you'd be amazed at how realistic some sample libraries today sound. Recently they started rolling out physically modelled software - no samples but is programmed to generate the sounds of an instrument, such as SWAM instruments or IK Multimedia's Modobass, it's crazy.
Lol overvalue originality? 😂😂 I can't even say I'm surprised by someone saying that because we live in a decade now where originality is shunned by people who just want to hear the latest generic Trap single.

I agree but when it comes to the point the music sounds like shit and it's being purposefully done for the sake of "originanality" I think that's too far
Listen to free improvisation
Agh, when you mentioned the super gigantic discography of an artist that even huge fans may never hear, I immediately though "Jeez, who is that really besides Buckethead?" And then you cited him ha
I agree with most of this round, Anton!
LETS ARUGE: Tupac and Biggie are overrated. They’re better rappers with lyricist, storytelling, and word play, etc. Since Pac and Biggie died in their prime their fans overrate them, Not saying their music is bad but fans overrate them.
Roman PG Didn’t you read? I said their music isn’t bad, Fans like you overrate them
8:20 I think the thing about this is: "experemeintal" has a positive or neutral connotation to it, and so it will be used in a positive or neutral way on average or better albums. Whereas words like "goofy" or "weird" will be used on bad experemeintal albums. Does this make sense? I don't know.

the gentification tweet irked me in the sense that class struggle and rich kids coming in and hijacking is nothing new at all and not unique to the 2010s.
Veteran was WAY better than Kamikaze.
Bassthony mantano here. I like seeing those musical intros from the melon dude.
This record is TRASH & I cannot believe he hoped on this record with a co-sign This man needs an intervention someone needs lock him in a room & make him listen to all the standards he was taking in all his old stuff “I guess the money should’ve changed em I guess I should’ve forgot where I came from” #MakeKanyeGreatAgain
I didn't think he could top Ye in terms of abject shittiness but boy oh boy was I wrong!
