[@ArtificialAIexander]

it sounds more satire than actually a hater😭

[@swordbird]

When they initially said the racially insensitive bit I thought they were talking about banana man. This MUCH more dumb.

[@emmamatronics]

I don’t think the author listened to the whole album bc I thought the same thing and was so massively blindsided over it being about welcome to tally hall

[@Jwwck]

i have to imagine they overheard some discourse that "oh, MMMM has some racial stuff" and then the journalist naturally forms a preception and stance as they start to listen to MMMM and then put their headphones down and write a typical journalist ragebait article as soon as they find even one reason/example to write about. poor guy.

Tally Hall themselves responded this article on a concert by saying: "Wouldn't you please stop complaining? I'm playing a song."

[@grayanddevpdx]

love how criticizing tally hall, regardless of the time, always has the same points: - unserious is bad - copying styles of other people is racist (fair point for Banana Man but how do some people get this from Black Rainbows or WtTH) - ties look stupid

[@project_letters]

As someone whose favourite song is Welcome to Tally Hall, im dying. Also that person who just likes Joe because he's attractive and has no idea what tf he actually does is such a mood 💀

[@madiii3279]

Yeah i mean i obviously don't support his actions but hes lowkey cute 😭

[@stardancer3668]

BRO DID NOT WANT TO BE WELCOMED TO TALLY HALL 🗣🗣🔊🚫🔥 lol this is too silly to take seriously. I honestly thought when he mentioned racism he would mention banana man or something like that but instead WTTH?!? As a black person, it honestly baffles me how the author came to this conclusion lmao. Just because they rapped?! It sounds like they didn't even make it past the 3rd song or has some personal beef with Tally Hall or something. Also the girl not knowing what Joe plays but simply liking him because "he's the cutest" was also really funny. Thank you for sharing this lol

[@everythingpizzaandknuckles6268]

"...at it's worst is patronizing and racially insensitive" Oh, ok, they're gonna talk about Banana Man. I feel like it's a bit much to say all that over Banana Man, speaking as someone who finds it a little icky myself, but sure, I'll hear them out. "Welcome to Tally Hall is the nadir of their unparalleled tastelessness" OH, YEAH, OK, THAT MAKES SENSE. "Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum is more like a natural disaster than a terrorist attack" MY MAN YOU ARE SAYING THIS A MERE 5 YEARS AFTER 9/11; AND YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO CALL THEM INSENSITIVE??

[@Schlanket]

“Tally Hall will be forgotten.” Meanwhile 17 years later:”We won’t let time forget this marionette quintet.” “Just to let you know you five manned puppet show, that you’re the golden standard the trophy’s handed to, you disbanded group.”

To be fair, that "electronic ebonics" line is why I'll probably never play WTTH live at a show. I love covering Tally Hall when my limited skill can manage it, but a white dude being like "yeah, I'm proudly gonna speak in ebonics" is a bit odd and isn't something I'd wanna get caught saying haha
