Video: Death of The Rock Critic?

Filed in: Opinion

This is a must-see, hilarious video taken from the 140 Characters Conference of speaker Christopher R. Weingarten, music critic for Rolling Stone and Idolator. His topic is how music blogs and Twitter have killed the music critic, and in its wake, 'good' music itself. This is an incredibly witty and insightful presentation that I'm sure everyone will get a kick out of, and hopefully create some conversation on this blog in the process.

Christopher R. Weingarten has also launched a new Twitter profile @1000TimesYes, where he's doing 1000 micro-music reviews in one year. He's currently at #408, it's a cool concept.
