New fan opinion
I’m a new Joost fan, I think he has so much potential but a couple of issues I’ve noticed (no hate lol) is how bad his lyrics / writing are. There’s so much potential there but I think he misses the mark by not collaborating with established song writers. I think it would help him not repeat so many words in his songs as well as having better compositions in his lyric structures that could help him express reoccurring themes without it being repetitive. I also think his albums lack sonic cohesiveness. I understand the vibe he’s got going on I know he’s really inspired by scatman, weird Al yankovic, early 2000s/2010s European techno and gabber but I think he needs to make a decision about how ‘serious’ he wants to take his music instead of treating it like a meme. I think he should separate his more internet meme songs and his more legitimate songs. I also think he should also get a better creative director (if he doesn’t have one already). With all this being said for all I know someone could be saying the same thing behind the scenes but ultimately it’s up to the artist to either take or leave the recommendation / advice . What do you guys think?
