Love this, so thought provoking! And worth it for the Migos comment alone, LOL. If you ever start a Michelin for music, sign me up as a reviewer, although being anonymous would be tough :-).
I love this. Thank you. An interesting potential effect: with a museum's permanent collection as an example, you could run into the problem of speculative hoarding. For some reason, we always want to attach an element of winning, or value gained, to the art we love. This thoughtful approach to reviewing could lead to a weird speculative market, where some version of an eventual three-star album ( i.e. a first pressing of a vinyl) would be retroactively worth more. Then, like museums, which steal and hoard art/artifacts worldwide, hoarding music would become a weird aspect of the culture. Bands could potentially benefit from this by offering early fans an opportunity to "buy low": at its worst, it would just be another NFT, and at best, it would mimic the art market, where very few artists benefit financially from their work in their lifetime. TLTR: this is a great idea, and capitalism with ruin an aspect of it. lol.
I love this take. You should do a spotify playlist with the albums you'd give 3 michelin stars!
ppl want me to start the guide itself!!! 😅
in the meantime tho... haha
