Honest feedback is hard to get, because its so filtered through personality clashes, and ego and kissing arse.

A simple rating system, would not be difficult. Perhaps when the song has 300 views and one or two reviews. Perhaps the user coukd as easily click...1 for terrible, 5 for great.

Would be anonymous.too

As it is now its a bit like kissing your sister

Maybe use an unbiased AI algorithm to rate songs. No, AI isn't unbiased. It would favor the Suna songs. Then again, I don't consider reviews anyway. Well, mostly I don't. I have made changes to my music after hearing a review.

No but reviews can be, I like this, or no dont like that.

I guess it would depend who was suggesting the changes

John ate you against Ai, as a production tool? All composing done by artist, but using Ai to play bass, or mix your song, fiver is similar to that

Are you kidding?
You are calling for a rating system?
You can't take any criticism at all.

Stay with your current rating system, which is you talking about how great your songs are and how much you love them and referring to them as "classics."
Rate that.

At any rate, thanks for a good laugh before bedtime.

I posted a song yesterday, it has 425 views in one day. People are here. Thought if there was a simple button, like./Don't like. It would make it real easy.

I can take criticism, but you're a liar, so I reject yours.

You clearly have no clue about the majority of other genres there.

You dont write about things people can relate to on a whim.. and I can easily do that.

Somebody is not allowed to post a b side type of song?

Im the artist, not pitching.

If I saw consistency in your reviews, I'd belive you.

I mean we could critize Paul Simon if we wanted to.

This way, you wouldn't have to say anything just a grade

I could give "say whut" a zero and be done with it.

Bullshit is robot songs and not a live artist to record them
