Roasted 1 year ago based on Michael Friedmann's long term Spotify stats.

Michael Friedmann, or as I like to call you, the Sultan of Soft Pop, your music tastes are so gentle that even a whisper could kick your ass in a dance battle. I mean, come on—“EDM” to "Swing Music" in the same breath? Your playlist looks like the soundtrack of a confused dance party at a retirement home. It’s like you threw a dart at a board of genres and whatever it hit, you added to your collection. “Tropical House”? If this is what you consider a tropical getaway, I can’t imagine what it’s like to take an actual vacation with you; I'm guessing it'd be at a beach resort that offers a complimentary session of arts and crafts. Your top artists read like a Spotify top 40 countdown from 2010 while simultaneously crying for assistance. I mean, “Chillout Tazzy”? Who even is that? Sounds like a character from a kids’ show desperately trying to teach kids about relaxation techniques. And Bruce Springsteen? Kudos for selecting "The Boss" to save your reputation, but he’s probably rolling over in his grave every time your “Soft Rock” shuffles into his iconic tracks. Throw in Ed Sheeran and we have the perfect recipe for a collective cringe where no one is quite sure whether to laugh or cry. As for your most played songs, can we just take a moment to appreciate your top tracks? "It Wasn't Me" by Shaggy feels like an anthem for your dating life while "I'm A Believer" by Smash Mouth sounds like wishful thinking as you navigate through life’s epic misadventures. "Drops of Jupiter"? Sounds more like your Spotify account is on a quest across a barren universe, landing at "meh." Honestly, the only thing getting lifted from your jams is the mood of a sleepy sloth. Keep strumming those soft tunes, Michael. Enjoy your tropical aesthetic while your dance floor remainsempty.
