Hamilton seems pretty terrible to me. I'll admit, I've never seen it, and I've never sat through any of the song all the way through, but all I've heard from it is terrible. But people seem to like it. What's going on?

I know it's politically controversial in some way, and apparently it's not historically accurate, but I don't care about that stuff. One of the cast members threw a wine bottle at the vice president, the real Alexander Hamilton wasn't hispanic, whatever, I don't care. I'm just talking about the music

Listen to this. It's terrible, right?

OP you should probably like, listen to at least half of it, and then come to your own conclusions, IMO.

I've been in stores where there's been music playing, and I've thought "what is this crap?" and then they started rapping about federalism or whatever and I realized it was Hamilton. My reaction every piece of Hamilton I've heard is immediate revulsion.

I think 1776 the musical was better. The movie version featuring a man that millennials and I only know as "Feeny."

This is super wierd, on Wednesday I was going to make a thread about how Hamilton is loving awesome, but figured goons have no class and so nobody would care and the thread would die. :tinfoil:

What do you like about Hamilton?

The “first lady of nerdcore,” rapper MC Router (responsible for the song “Trekkie Pride”), never achieved the critical success for which she had seemed destined, instead ending up on the Dr. Phil show after an acrimonious dispute with her family over her unexpected conversion to Islam.

i think the only people who really hate it are trump voters

I don't watch Fox News, and I voted for Clinton. You keep making guesses about me based on the fact that I don't like Hamilton, and so far the only one you've got right is that I love swallowing cum

the trump tutelage posted:

It drives me crazy because it's supposed to indicate a broad popular rejection of Trump when in reality it was two hyper-wealthy, coastal metropolitan areas.

I don't even like Trump but I'm tired of the stawmanning.
