Pitchfork saying he sounds a bit like an Elvis impersonator (aka a ‘club singer’) is below the belt…but also, yeah, a bit of that

He’s a ‘high end club singer’ in style

im dropping my rating by 0.5 cause the cheesiness is at times overwhelming, but this is still a solid-ass release and one of my favourites of the year so far

Oh yeah, you can 100% tell he’s trained in musical theatre. For me that’s a strength cause my other music love is showtunes, but (to go back to Boney’s point on Let Me Drown too) I get why that can be too much for people. But again, to say he can’t sing is just . . . Like objectively incorrect

I’m generally not a fan of showy/theatric singing (the only showtunes I enjoy are Lambchop’s ;-P) but it’s only an issue for me on “Let Me Drown” where he really revels in the hamminess. It’s not bad per se it just doesn’t totally appeal to me.

Yeah, cheesiness is inauthentic by nature, or otherwise surface/cheap, whereas camp is not

“something is perceived as cheesy if it’s done in a cliche or overly straightforward way.”
You are describing camp

Album Rating: 4.5
If I like it, it’s camp
If I don’t like it, it’s cheesy
|

Album Rating: 4.5
if it’s camp, the artist’s intentions are as pure as fresh winter snow
if it’s cheesy the artist is a lying sack of shit

In contrast to cheese, camp is intentional yeah
|

Y'all this is like only 15-20% cheese come on.

who's to say cheese isn't intentional? feels like a very arbitrary distinction. not a fan
