His music is regarded as great, by people who know more about music than anyone in this thread, it's also regarded as complete shit by other people, who know more about music than anyone in this thread. But cool strawman argument.
I already admitted he was talented but you clearly don't understand that the type of music he chose to play is, for the most part, not technically advanced and, therefore, it's completely ridiculous to act elitist about him.
A basic 4 / 4 pop song played by a genius is still a basic 4 / 4 pop song.
So what is your definition of a highbrow musician? And
who would be considered one?
The type of music doesn't matter, he didn't ONLY play one genre of music.
