2010: The Year In Disappointments

Kid Cudi – There is nothing wrong with ambition. Nothing wrong with failure. Nothing, nothing, nothing. But man does Vol II suck. It didn’t happen. And while there is nothing wrong with not getting it right, getting it wrong on this level is another matter entirely. Did he learn nothing from 808s? FIRST THE SONG

Portishead – At the end of 2009 they released “Chase The Tear” and I spent the entire year waiting for the album and all i got was Beak

And Massic Attack -whose Heligoland was a huge disappointment.

Speaking of disappearing acts, Conor Oberst essentially took the year off. Maybe why he had troubles filling Radio City.

Taylor Swift was the second biggest disappointment of the year. I don’t know when I been so upset by an album, two great songs and then nothing. 

All  the Michael Jackson stuff has been awful but he is dead so unlike everybody else here, he can’t be take all the blame.
