And all his drivel deserves to be forgotten, the Barenaked Ladies will always have One Week at the very least.
Well at least his developing right wing fanbase will have the 200+ albums he's released since 2020 to listen through
Proud to say the only song I ever knew of his was the Wonderwall cover. I'm surprised how big he actually got in the first place..
oh dang I def should've protested RA when he was in Charlottesville last month. still surprised he even played here.
I had unfortunately JUST gotten into his music about a year or two before everything, when he was good he was actually great, but I haven't listened to a single note since then
I didn’t know he was a controversial figure. Has he actually done/said something bad, or is it just that awkward right-wing positioning post?
was in the same boat. remember enjoying some of his latter output pre-accusations and was excited for his supposed trilogy of albums to come out that year. then everything came to light and i cut bait immediately.
multiple reports of sexual misconduct and manipulation, including by ex-wife Mandy Moore and Phoebe Bridgers https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/13/arts/music/ryan-adams-women-sex.html
Without the context of his prior actions that right-wing grifter pivot bullshit he's on would still suck. With that context... well.
It's amazing* how often being a right-wing grifter and sexual misconduct goes hand in hand. *not really
Hilariously pathetic to make those kinds of posts at any age but this guy is 50! And I think Steve or someone else mentioned it in here or another thread but my god, he’s released 11 albums since 2020 when he was “cancelled” - 18 if you include cover and live albums. Guy is desperate to release something that would bring him back into the spotlight and cover up his shit but nothing’s working.
