as a casual bb stan who is neither a composer nor arranger nor lyricist, i just like gd the way he is in the studio when he's telling people how to sing and how relentless he is (was? a recent interview seems to show that he's changed) about getting a perfect product. idk, there's something nice about how much time he's willing to spend in the studio, even if he isn't the only guy churning out musical masterpieces from conception to production
