In my past life as a music journalist, I was paid for to be a musical nob. It’s not really a job that exists anymore, outside Rolling stones And a few niche magazines, as music publications and sites have discovered that you don’t have to pay people to be a musical nob – they will do it for free.
Unfortunately, despite no longer being paid to be one, I cannot help but implement the arbitrary science of snobbery and still divide artists into two camps – cool and not cool.
From this list, only blondie cuts, with Eagles wobbling between the two, but it’s just me – you may think top golfer Gene Simmons of Kiss is cool, or maybe you’ve never stopped believing in travel (puzzle compilators at NEW certainly don’t have).
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.
