Well, matt is a computer guy (and about as white as a guy can get ;), not a music critic. Matt writing that its 'honest to goodness R&B' carries about as much weight as Justin Timberlake telling me the virtues of php over perl.
As far anil, he just has horrible taste ;)

Anil made me do it!
Really, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I've heard much worse stuff.

Screw you all! And most of all Kottke! I wish I could be all counterculture like you and talk about how I love Nicole Kidman. Then I'd be cool like Jason is and Matt is not.
I hate all of you, I'm quitting my weblog forever.

I find that hearing someone say "Justin Timerlake is not that bad" is much harder on the ears then actually listening to man's music.
It's amazing how much I have to weigh these two up against eachother.
Ahem. We'll leave it there folks.

i got into trouble over a similar statement of "its not as bad as i thought" with my wife regarding mr. timberlake...and it isn't. still, i'd rather listen to about 1,000 different artists.

Justified has some real gems on it. I agree with Anil that the ballads are weak.
It's cool to like new JT, but it's intensely uncool to like new Liz Phair.

No. But that only helps in not clouding my judgement when reading this post.
