Gracie Abrams says on Popcast that the nepo baby discourse surrounding her is appropriate:
“The nepo stuff is obviously in the discourse appropriately. I think about the privilege there, and it’s like, I had a safety net, and that allowed me the ability to experiment and to concentrate and I had the gift of time to dedicate to doing this thing I loved. I wasn’t growing up afraid financially, and that’s the biggest deal.”
Anthony Fantano calls himself "the most relevant and impactful music critic” in response to Halsey (via Variety):
“I don’t have to prove my track record to Halsey. I have been the most relevant and impactful music critic of my — and any — generation for over 10 years now. You can’t really debate that. There’s no music critic bigger than me who’s had more impact than me for as long as I have, consistently. And if I die tomorrow, nobody’s going to outdo that run.”

@an_ideaofsorts I sort of figured when I watched that it was just bc he was so insanely high and also did not care about these people at all. Like he just sort of forgot about it immediately? But that’s also generous lmao
It was a dumb thing to include.
