«Today’s Lyrics Are Pathetically Bad» Rick Beato


He know better than me. He is a musician and i am not.  I dont listen contemporary lyrics anyway, they are not all bad for sure, but what is good enough  is few waves in an ocean of bad to worst...

I will never dare to claim it because i am old, not a musician anyway,  i listen classical old music and world music and Jazz...

And old very old lyrics from Franco-Flemish school to Léo Ferré and to the genius  Bob Dylan Dylan...

Just write what you think about Beato informed opinion...

I like him because he spoke bluntly and is enthusiast musician ...

Let it be known that Alice Cooper is a misunderstood musical genius. 

Oh hell yes!  When Alice Cooper would get together with Sonny and Cher they would write some amazing stuff!  Incredibly inspiring material came out of that short relationship!

I am no fan of Mr Beato but… I respect the learned opinion of an experienced Industry professional over the ramblings and half baked comments of amateur “experts “… just saying, he has a Point

the ramblings and half baked comments of amateur “experts “

I resemble that remark!

@ticat

He only "has a point" regarding the limited scope of what he chooses to listen to.

It’s a moot point to those of us who are aware of excellent songwriters Beato chooses to ignore. And, he's not a lyricist so he's hardly an "expert" when it comes to that craft. 

However, I suspect such sweeping (albeit erroneous) claims do garner him more hits... which begs the question: for a guy who purports to be an "educator", how much do facts actually matter to him?
