    arguably the best rock n roll songwriter of all time...without a doubt the best crooner-swooner songwriter of all time...I believe songs like "Trying Your Luck" and "Under Control" have taken that style of singing/playing to it's highest bar of quality and have yet to topped...

    Hey Julian, if you read this, I love you man. Such great work and I've followed your music since before "Is This It" released here since I was lucky enough that my older sis' bf introduced me to The Strokes. Your art has added so much to the world, and defines periods of my life and the 00s, 10s, and 20s, in the same way we define the 70s, 80s, and 90s through their music. So thank you from the bottom of my heart! Hope to see you live someday!

    Rick Rubin is the greatest! He literally laughs at home every day, knowing that artists pay him money and never question his "genius." It's like... The Strokes and Voidz will do just fine whatever they do. But throw my nephew in the studio to tell you what feels right, and to you, feel like that made the ultimate choice. 👏👏 Get your Rick. Only a special type of artist deserves you, and vice-versa 😂.
