The writers of ROLLING STONE need to pay less attention to their own reviews and start checking out some real quality albums.
You know the NIPPERTOWN crew will have some real boss album choices on their lists, for sure.
Wow, Rolling Stone has really become a bastion for mainstream pap. Remember when it was the edgy mag that your parents didn’t want in the house? I mean Jay-Z and Kanye……really? Give me Nippertown any day.
