1) channel. Orange is the second most acclaimed album of the decade, so kinda the opposite of 'forgettable.'
2) You're sidestepping the discussion at hand - your perception of him as 'overrated' is subjective.
What is OBJECTIVE, however, is that the most important LGBT artist of this millennium (kinda sorta inarguable at this point!) released two new bodies of work after a four year hiatus, and the gay media didn't find it important to cover it.
They did write articles on Steve Grand's attempt at gaining funding to 'record' an "album," however.
