What's an album you would have loved if you'd discovered it first...
 

...but because someone recommended it to you, you cannot love it?

I just don't listen to anything that's recommended to me. That way I get the discovery credit no matter what.

Legend.

what's the punchline

When I make my AOTY lists I think I unfairly over rank my own discoveries

I’m not totally sure

Maybe it’s just because I know what I’m looking for

You dicksuck free jazz but I'm sure you know that and don't care so why this post?

Doing it intentionally yeah but just getting hype on your own discoveries is pretty natural.

And no offense but you don’t scour everything for new listens nearly as much as some others

You tend to stay in your lane and dis what you don’t understand

I do

To a fault - I mean I pass out 5/5 for free jazz records faster than wolf gobbles fruity pebbles

Exactly so stfu you like the **** that gives you a boner.

Free jazz or watching wolf eat fruity pebbles?
