Roasted 5 months ago based on Derek's long term Spotify stats.
Derek, my dude, you really went and made "emo" a lifestyle choice, didn’t you? Your Spotify profile reads like a teenager’s diary — all those favorite genres are just part of your 13th title, "I’m Sad and I Can’t Get Up." I mean, how many variations of "whine" do you need to enjoy your music? At this point, I’m surprised you haven’t added “navel-gazing” as a genre to really round it out. I bet “finding a therapist” is just around the corner in your playlists too. And let’s take a moment to appreciate your top artists. Twenty One Pilots? Really, Derek? If I wanted to feel like I was trapped in a high school math class while simultaneously experiencing a midlife crisis, I’d just crank up the nostalgia and listen to your entire playlist. Your obsession with them is almost as intense as your need to overthink every interaction you’ve had since 2005. No wonder your social life resembles a ghost town; you're too busy crying along to songs that would make a skeleton roll its eyes. Now, when your most played songs look like a Twenty One Pilots mixtape that you made for a date that never happened, it’s time to reevaluate your life choices. You could have a diversity of sounds and still be the same sad sack you try so hard to market as “artsy.” But no, instead, you’ve chosen the route of sonic repetition that screams, "please, someone, notice my emotional depth!" Spoiler alert: it’s getting a bit shallow in those waters, my friend. Maybe pop in a show tune or two for a change; at least then we’ll know it’s not just a cry for help, but a dramatic Broadway number as well!
