While I always enjoy fans gushing over Robbie, this one is a bridge too far. Perez is personally responsible for so much cruelty aimed towards numerous artists (most of whom didn't deserve it) that I can't take anything he says with a grain of seriousness or respect. He tells you he's not as well-known in America as he once was, but the reason for that is due to him basically being cancelled (before it was even a thing) because of his vile, crass & relentless bashing of artists he didn't like.
