Would quite like to hear the feedback on Lewis Capaldi here. Know he's on top with Foals and Snow Patrol, but the fact his Manchester Castlefield Bowl show was yet to sell out as recently as yesterday has left me wondering if his trajectory is quite what I anticiapted.
Expect an Sing-style swing, a la Ed Sheeran, for the next record to recoup some pop popularity perhaps - or maybe he goes the route of Jake Bugg and becomes a perennial O2 Academy/lower end bill filler for the next decade.
He makes soulless soul music, an industry plant with nothing new to bring to the table. The fact that he's headlining latitude with only 45 minutes of songs is laughable. Hard to say whether his next songs will go down well or not but if his copy paste previous songs did any of his dross can.
I don't hold resentment for many artists but his constantly hailed unoriginal style bug me a bit.
