I wrote about the brilliant new Claire Rousay album, emo ambient mixing electronic collage, robot vocals, and human heartbreak rollingstone.com/music/music-al…
was enchanted to meet with the one and only @robsheff where we talked for hours about writing, nyc, and of course taylor swift. can’t wait to read his upcoming book! (and maybe see him on the @taylorseminars podcast?!)

I wrote about the long, winding, & weird history of The Beatles' long-lost 1970 doc "Let It Be." So controversial, yet officially buried for decades. Peter Jackson's "Get Back" totally changed how we view this era, so "Let It Be" is getting a second look. rollingstone.com/music/music-fe…
I love this album to pieces rollingstone.com/music/music-al…

@kimmykimmie4 Florida!!! is Alice and my's shared favorite, so I'll say that one.
rolling stone podcasts make me emotional because i remember in 2019 when i was an exchange student in milan, i listened to the lover episode like 10 times. i love brian hiatt, rob sheffield and brittany spanos. i then listened to old episodes and learnt so much about rock history
I respect Rob Sheffield for being the swiftie he is, even when his opinions are wrong (ranking The Black Dog at 96, and But Daddy I Love Him at 91, instead of in the top 50 where they belong)

@hiattb @ohheybrittany @robsheff part ONE?!!!!

@hiattb @ohheybrittany @robsheff I was wondering how the three of you intended to fit the whole thing in 1 hour! Having multiple parts makes sense.
@robsheff the line on the pod about “just wait until she starts singing about 3rd down conversions” 🤣🤣🤣 so good!
@hiattb @ohheybrittany @robsheff Thank you so much. I can’t wait for part 2. I felt like I was part of this dialogue. You were taking words right out of my mouth. Thank you, as always for the deep dive, and for as I have said before, Rob weaving the magical. Bonus points for GNR references at the end #tsTTPD 🪶
Listening to the rolling stone podcast with @hiattb @ohheybrittany @robsheff finally and I’ve realized it’s not that I don’t want to listen to ttpd critique, I just don’t want to listen to weird bad faith critique of monoculture. I love their positivity/gentle ribbing! 10/10 time
Some people had advances. At least of the first half. To write this piece without realizing this simple fact is pretty ridiculous.
Whether you love or hate Taylor Swift's latest album, there is no way to adequately digest its 31 songs and write about it within hours of its release, says @jkarl26 trib.al/RaKEIwK via @opinion
@hiattb I feel like some of the album reviews focused more on if the critic liked Taylor Swift as a person. I did appreciate that Rob Sheffield’s review focused on the music. It seems like for the most part Rolling Stone critics listen to the albums before writing reviews.
