I respected Kurt for getting out there and doing it, and really working on the craft of it. And he was always working the writers nights. ANd I think he had the old school folks in his corner, the ones who used to write for other artists, or try to.

Sometimes he'd get annoyed at critiques, nothing new there.

As far as insonsistencies in critiques, dont even get me started. Ive read people attack my stuff, and give praise out for much weaker, and stupid stuff, simply cause they were friends.

WHen I was posted alot, (im working on better recordings) but when I was I had alot of people wanting to collab. Im like chit you aint gonna come in my pm box and ask for a collab, when you dont say a word in my threads.

Lyricists tend to downplay your lyrics, that way you may "see the error of your ways" and get them to write lyrics. Im like dude, your lyrics suck, much worse than mine do lmaaooo

In fact recently one such culprit told me how great the track was, melody, vocals. but that the lyric was weak...ok, sometimes lyrics are weak, but when I recently read something of his, just a lyric, it was so lame and trite I had to bite my tongue...

But yeah, consistency in critiques has been and is a problem, people critique the person, and not the song
