If you love reading music reviews, which I am sure you do, Youtube is another great platform to get the reviews you crave. Since Youtube is an open platform there are many people who share their opinion with the world. But some of the channels are very credible and give great insight and perspective on your favorite albums, bands and new releases. I love spending my time seeing what other people have to say about an album and the numerous countdowns of their favorite singles by various bands. Nothing is better than having your opinion about an album validated, and the best part is that since YouTube has an open comment section it is really easy to start and maintain conversations about the subject.
Here I have listed my favorite Youtube Music Review Channels:
Anthony Fantano
Not only is he a funny guy you can tell that he has a lot of knowledge on the subject. Also, he posts a lot so he is always updated about what is happening in the music world. When an album drops you bet he is going to make a review right away.
Dead End Hip Hop
The panelists on this channel discuss hip-hop and it is sure to keep you entertained with their banter.
Spectrum Pulse
He is a highly intelligent guy that puts so much effort into his reviews.
Todd In the Shadows
I have no idea why he wears a mask, but his voice speaks volumes.
ARTV
This is my all-time favorite music review channel on Youtube because of how insightful he is about the subject. He truly does study music and it shows in his reviews. Not only that, but he creates content very frequently and has great lists that I watch for literal hours sometimes. His opinions sometimes are harsh but that is just his viewpoint.
Nothing is better than hearing an album and having the ability to go on Youtube to see what other people thought about it in an instance. It sometimes is even better than the written review if you feel lazy. I hope I showed you your next favorite channel and make sure to subscribe to them for weekly updates.
