Metal guitarist Gary Holt of Exodus, Slayer defends Taylor Swift: 'Why all the hate?' (msn.com)

"I love Taylor Swift. Why all the hate?" Holt said on the July 16 episode. "She's an extraordinarily hard worker. She's super (expletive) nice to everybody, and people hate her."

He added: "She's just the biggest popstar on Earth, and more power to her. I like the songs. I love pop."

"Taylor writes everything. And so, I give her credit," Holt said. "She's a songwriter. And some of these other people, they require massive teams."

Gary Holt calls Beyonc the 'most overrated talent on Earth'

"While making his case for Swift's songwriting credibility, Holt criticized pop icon Beyonc for her numerous collaborators. "Beyonc will put out a song, and there's 30 (expletive) people on it. How can 30 people write a song, all gathered together?" Holt said. "It's just like a factory of songwriting. Who even knows who did what anymore when there's like 20 names on it."

Amen Gary. It's okay for metal heads to enjoy Taylor Swift's music and give her kudos.

We didn't need another Taylor Swift thread, which could have been posted under your other threads, about a quote from someone we don't care about, and misspelled Beyonce at least 3 times.

The misspelling is because of a weird Texags glitch for the acute over the E in Beyonce's name. Try it!

i say that I see far more people online complaining about Taylor Swift hate than I ever see actual Taylor Swift hate. She's the highest grossing touring act ever, so much that they put her tour movie in theaters for little girls to go watch it again and again. what the **** else do you Swifties expect?

Respect? Thanks?

In this case, a known troll, who posts 30x a day, wanted to stir up *****

And he didn't get the Taylor bashing he expected, he just got told repeatedly that his obnoxious posts are dumb.

But he'd have you believe he was a good therapist.

Speaking of trolls…..aren't you the user who claims Taylor Swift doesn't have a single hit off of TTPD?

I opened this thread because I listened to Slayer back when I was a teenager. Reign in Blood (1986) was the last album I bought.

And, I was shocked by this statement:
Quote:

"Taylor writes everything. And so, I give her credit," Holt said. "She's a songwriter. And some of these other people, they require massive teams."
Here Rick Beato discusses Taylor's team in comparison with the Beatles. I've started the video where he talks about the number of writers contributing to Swift's 12 number 1 songs and further goes in to how producers create pop music

this is exactly what came to mind when I read Gary's quote about 'others needing massive teams'.

Negativity on a message board is all. I've started other threads regarding different genres or posing different questions and get a different set of users offering feedback and positive commentary.

Mention Taylor Swift and people lose their mind.

Who lost their minds? Show me evidence of all the hate.

You are just trolling for reactions and then declaring that you got the reaction you wanted. Congrats?

I worked a slayer/Judas priest show many many years ago and got all the drum heads from slayers kit and sold them on eBay for a bunch of money.

Well that's badass.

Grew up listening to Judas Priest amongst many other 80s metal.

Still my favorite genre

swift songs probably sound better on acoustic though.

I've been eyeing a nice Taylor for a long time. But I needed to get my child hood dream purchases out of the way and my love for all things 80s thrash metal

Everyone hates her…she couldn't fill a small arena if there was free admission.
