I just did a quick Wikipedia look-see and I'm pretty sure I own Selected Ambient Works Volume II based on the cover that's shown there.

I listened to about 30 seconds of one of the tracks before I had to kill it

I was a fan of his ...I Care Because You Do album. I had a copy my first year of college and would listen to it at a somewhat loud volume while doing homework. The RA had to finally come and tell me to turn it down at one point. I can't imagine what the complaints were about...
But yeah, almost none of his other albums work for me. I like his NIN remixes though.

https://shadowandact.com/surviving-r-ke ... th-r-kellyBut when hampton asked longtime collaborators and friends to speak on-camera for the docuseries, many of these highly influential people declined.
"John Legend was the only one," who participated, hampton said. "I asked Jay-Z, I asked Mary J. Blige, I asked Lil Kim, Erykah Badu, Dave Chappelle..." But they all said no. "I mean, most people just don't want to touch it. I remember Ahmir ["Questlove" Thompson] was like, 'I would do anything for you but I can't do this.' It's not because they support him, it's because it's so messy and muddy. It's that turning away that has allowed this to go on."
It's not just celebrities who have turned away from publicly calling for Kelly's accountability; his diehard fans are still unwilling to let go of him or music. hampton offered an example from the docuseries to explain why that might be:
"In the docuseries, [journalist and filmmaker] Nelson George talks about why it's so difficult for us to turn away from someone like R. Kelly because we don't necessarily associate the songs with him, we associate them with things in our life. So it's not when we hear 'I Believe I Can Fly' we're thinking about, him, we're thinking about our niece's 8th grade graduation, or hear 'Step in the Name of Love,' it's our cousin's wedding," she said."

I know there’s very strong dislike for Gary Clark Jr. but I’d say he isn’t playing it safe anymore.

Phoebe's album is very good but I really can't stand Oberst. Might be taking a pass on this one.

Oberst is one of those songwriters who is very place/time specific for me. I both swoon and cringe at some of his songs the same way that I would reading my old journals or posts. Way more cringing than swooning. Glad he's still performing, I guess. I wondered to myself what he was doing just a few days ago, weirdly enough.

I pretty much love everything Phoebe's done, so I'm onboard for sure.

Didn't Know What I Was in For, Service Road, Chesapeake, and Big Black Heart were highlights.
There are some interesting production choices.

There was a stretch where I would have argued that Oberst was the best lyricist in the biz. I still think he's incredible on that score. But I don't listen to him very often anymore. And I never got into much after Cassadaga.Blaine Ryan wrote:Phoebe's album is very good but I really can't stand Oberst. Might be taking a pass on this one.
