Ah it was with the recent Halsey album review “controversy”. He did refer to himself as such, but it was justified.
“I don’t have to prove my track record to Halsey,” he maintains. “I have been the most relevant and impactful music critic of my — and any — generation for over 10 years now. You can’t really debate that. There’s no music critic bigger than me who’s had more impact than me for as long as I have, consistently. And if I die tomorrow, nobody’s going to outdo that run.”

Knowing absolutely nothing about him before today, he does sound like a massive dick, all things considered.
He is a dick sometimes, but again, he isn’t wrong here. As grating as it is haha
