Review of Hamilton (2020) by Olivierpiel — 05 Jul 2020
American musicals are to music what Asian-Western "fusion" food is to gastronomy, a blend of two things that should stay separate. This hugely overrated work is not different.
The rap is so bland, safe, uniform, mascarading as rhymed sppech and often not even in-sync with the beat. I know white American people don't have a sense of beat, but this was excruciating. The rest ("chanted" dialogues, dancing) was as laborious and so unimaginative.
DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE.
