As much as people praise the hell out of Hamilton, pretty much every single thing about it is a huge turn-off for me.

I'd probably be more neutral on it, but the excessive praise tends to make me reflexively go the opposite way, until my dislike becomes more visceral.

Had I known it was from Hamilton rather than having a completely open mind (or a mostly open one), I probably would have been "turned off" even though this was still when Hamilton was in its first-wave popularity well before it had become a household name. Granted, I've never been adamantly opposed to rap in general (even though I've never been much of a fan), which might also factor into it. (Although even though Hamilton is known more for rap, a lot of its songs don't even come close to fitting into musical genre -- the almost painfully slow "Burn" being an obvious example.)

I wish I had instead of seeing the newer one.
