His first one is nice & upbeat, while his second one is more melancholy, so I play whichever fits the mood My favorite song is probably Hate Street Dialogue

People like to compare him to Bob Dylan, but hot take I think it should be the other way around. I’m not saying Bob didn’t put out a handful of good songs, but IMO every single Rodriguez song slaps.
