Becka, you're missing the point entirely. I'm not questioning your boy's story. To be perfectly honest, I don't even really care. I have no opinion on Juan Atkins as a person and really don't care for his music at all.
That being said, when someone brings up that an actual product, which should be measured outside of someone's personality, is up for an award, and someone brings up a story about how they don't personally like the guy, yes, I think it's incredibly uncalled for. My words got overly censored unfortunately. I seaid it smelled like "starfukcer bullshit" and it still does. A guy wrote a track and it's up for an award. Is it relevant that he may have been a dick to someone here, is friends with someone here, someone knowns somebody who's dick he's sucked, etc? No. The only thing that's relevant is whether or not the track is any good. I could give two shits if he dropped a flyer. "[Deep loud inhale] A rude techno DJ? Well, I never!"
