I mean, aren’t basically all of his songs parodies? So he’s not directly creating good music from scratch, since he’s not writing most of the music.
Not to say he’s unskilled or bad. He’s amazing at what he does, and a skilled musician for sure. Though he is directly picking songs that are already popular most of the time instead of creating bangers whole-cloth. (I’m sure he could if he wanted to, of course)

He started out heavy into the parodies, but every album has some originals and they’re often the best of his work. Dare To Be Stupid, Stuck in a Closet With Vanna White, and Virus Alert all slap. Used to have Albuquerque on a mixed tape I listened to for road trips, and I almost sort got the whole song memorized.
Meanwhile, Weird Al is in the intersection of all three circles.

Not to be confused with Weird AI, which is in the intersection of none of the circles.
Redundant: all A"I" is currently weird.
I knew Weird Al wasn’t real! He’s like Santa Claus, or the Easter Bunny
