Neil Young is a curmudgeon and has a beef with everybody.

Love his music, though. He just doesn't work well with a group, unless it's Crazy Horse.

So, does that diminish his talents or make him less authentic? He couldn't help what family he was born into.


Geez, you’re the only one thinking that 😂

I don't think anyone was claiming that.


I mean at this juncture in time when, everyone is obsessed with social justice and equity and what have you, there is a growing movement against “nepo babies” in Hollywood. And yes nepotism is rampant in successful Hollywood and in general life really. Anyway, he was a dope musician.


Really? Who are some other "nepo babies" in Hollywood who have been smeared for having successful parents? If this is a "growing movement", you should be able to name a few others who have been caught by it.
