We’re seeing a significant spike in editorial interest, specifically from tastemaker blogs dissecting his role as a queer voice in a historically rigid genre. Watch for whether this intellectual curiosity translates into mainstream playlisting, or if Mac remains a high-concept outlier in the neo-traditionalist movement.
