    The other guy was saying preferences are a choice

    Yeah but I feel like your posts were kind of implying something not far off.

    Like you were contrasting preferences based on nostalgia with non nostalgic preferences, right? I’m just saying you could argue that nearly all preferences are based on memory and expectation. All of it is subjective and predetermined whether you like an album because it came out when you were 14 or you like an album because it uses song structures or genre conventions that you were familiar with growing up

    it is shoehorning things into the objective, because you’re attempting to explain off someone’s enjoyment of a project with bro-science to attempt to justify your preference for The Weeknd’s later projects

    You’re being really hyperbolic lol there’s nothing “disgusting” about offering a scientific reason why our brains do the things it does.

    It doesn’t take away from the subjectivity of art and what you personally like, only offers an insight as to why you might like that.

    well i personally find it pretty gross hyperbolic or not honestly, people who like to slam science whenever they can keep reductive statements such as “it’s just X” or “it’s just the brain doing that” or “it’s nothing more than insert scientific study here”

    my point is, that understanding the mechanics and processes of something doesn’t holistically explain the actual nature nor experience of what that thing is, particularly music and other things pertaining to experience—it’s more philosophical than anything else

    Nah, @dedication might actually be the most b**** made poster on this entire site Been trying to start s*** since yesterday by taking away from Kendrick's achievement and now he's talking about "gaslighting" in here

    Who even tries to take away from an artist's global numbers by bringing up numbers in America only, that makes no sense

    Idk based on the word choice in the other guys post, I think they’re just trying to gain smart points amongst themselves

    Science and art don't really go together. Our limited understanding of the human brain is in the early stages of research. Our minds are so complex and explaining away any other opinions as if you're blinded by nostalgia is naive at best but if anything science shows babies are more likely to throw away the old toys in favor of new toys. Even if it's the same thing people simply prefer new product

    Every new iPhone isn't that different but they still buy it because they're pressured to fit in or get left behind. Like how yall put Dawn and After Hours above Trilogy and push out anyone from XO who disagrees like that suddenly means they're not real fans

    exactly, you summed up what i was getting at in your first couple of words, science and art do not go together
