is this dude one of the best songwriters of the past decade. Was an absolute f***ing engine for some of the best pop albums of the past decade. He always gets the best out of the artists he works with too thats super impressive. Dated scarlett johansson before she was famous dude is unreal.
I kinda think he’s overrated
His bleachers stuff was so so
The fun stuff was mid apart from Some Nights which had Jeff Bhasker attached who’s incredible
1989 is amazing but reputation is awful and lover is so so plus both folklore and evermore were also driven by The National and Bon Iver
Melodrama is incredible but Pure Heroine was too
Arizona Baby was eh
NFR is great but again he’s working w an artist who’s already incredible
I think he’s good and has great chemistry w people but I haven’t really seen any evidence of him being the driving force behind any of the classics he’s had a hand in
Why do you sound like you're in love with him? I know people on this site obsess over artists and producers but it's unhealthy at this point.

More like you’re conflating things to give him less credit on the projects he did swish

how?
To me he’s been very hit or miss unless he’s working with people who are exceptional talents on their own

I see that. hits are still hits tho

Sure but I just can’t call him the best songwriter of the decade or even in that conversation when all of the work that puts him in that conversation is done with people who have proven themselves to be incredible songwriters on their own
he's been involved in a lot of stuff i really like so i can only conclude he has a not insignificant amount of talent
he does seem kinda lame irl tho
also i hate FUN., one of the worst bands of all time

So recognizing a persons accomplishments is obsessive and being in love with them?
I enjoyed a lot of his bleachers stuff tbh, but as someone who is not a huge pop fan I can't comment on his song writing

I just respect his production skills
