Last year was a Women’s World Cup Year but a relatively quiet year on the men’s side. It’s disingenuous to single out a specific single year when both teams operate on longer cycles.

Man, I used to be antagonistic toward that kind of music. But now I realize how great and meaningful it all was, once you see the sort of horrible shit that’s elevated by millennial pop-culture observers as Important Music™, from Beyonce on down.
