And honestly, even Justice aren’t that good." Yup. especially Uffie. I am not a fan of cute white girls whose schtick is that they can't rap very well & have hipster DJ boyfriends (see also Sister, Kid). “*Is it safe to say at this point, that everyone in Ed Banger save for Justice sucks.

You know I got nothin' but love for ya, Weiss, but I genuinely have no idea how someone could enjoy listening to this, especially when artists like Ellen Allien and Apparat could wipe the fucking floor with this band.
