Ugh, this was really hard because I have to cast 4 votes and there's only 4 people I can vote for (since I can't vote for sumthintoxic) :deadbanana: 

 

OFF:

 

Queen Conchita: I actually like how you took a pretty ruthless/insulting tone in writing your essay because it made it very entertaining to read. That being said, while I thought you did a good job criticizing Young God, you spent too much of your essay criticizing the song and not nearly enough criticizing the album as a whole and Rihlana's game-playing. Those two points felt rushed and tacked on, when instead they should have felt like equal contributors to the entry alongside the song criticism.

 

lhdang2000: I thought you started off criticizing Shake That well - that Pitbull verse is definitely terrible :deadbanana: - but I wish you had brought in more examples and reasons for why the song is bad instead of focusing so heavily on Pitbull's contribution and adding a pretty vague statement about how the song is "uninspiring". As for your criticism of the entire album and MLD, I thought the point you made was strong, but again, it felt like it needed to be expanded upon. The whole album being entirely the same is a valid criticism, but I think you should have gone into more detail in terms of HOW it's the same (i.e. is it the production? The messages of the song? The vocals? A combination of all 3?)

 

SAVE:

 

Rihlana: I've commended you for being very good at balancing all of the various round criteria before, and you definitely nailed that once again with this entry. I like how your criticisms of both the song and the album felt like objective faults as opposed to subjective minor complaints. You approached your criticism from multiple angles - vocals, production, message - and it made your essay seem very complete as a result. If I could give   you one suggestion, it would be that I wouldn't go out of my way to call a track "splendidly insightful" when you're supposed to be making the album look bad :laugh: 

 

MLD: If I'm being completely honest, I think that this was one of your weaker entries this season, but I thought you met the challenge criteria and provided a good amount of detail better than Queen Conchita and lhdang did. Your criticisms of the song itself often felt subjective and nitpicky, but I did like how you actually supported your criticisms with evidence from the song and criticized the song in multiple ways. I think your criticism of the album as a whole was definitely the strongest part of your essay, and I thought the point about SML being representative of Adele's inability to truly be versatile was a strong and creative point.

Argh I knew I was going to do badly this round after re reading the round brief when the entries had been posted and realising I completely missed a part, damn being ill and not being with it for a week :coffee:

 

SAVE

 

• Shelven (flawless writing style even in this round, you could've been more ruthless though)

• Ihdang2000 (I thought you made good points in your essay and that's why I saved you over MLD but you were still too nice)

 

OFF

 

• Sumthintoxic (this round called for ruthless tearing apart of another contestants album but I feel you played it too safe being too nice)

• MusicLoverDude (your worst entry throughout the whole competition in my opinion, very basically covered the album and ihdang2000 and the use of 'bitch' throughout didn't make it a ruthless essay)

 

 

@Rihlana your entry was easily the best this round and i'm sad I couldn't save you as you really deserved it.

I've ALWAYS been excited to play this round, but for me this was extremly hard.

If it was any other album, I think I could have gone much harder, but for me, shelven has been my fav this season with This is Acting, Im somone who cant really "fake" being mean. It sounded weird to talk crap on this album, when its the album (other than mine) that I actually thinks should win. Every mean write up I wrote just didnt feel like...me

Just so you know, the order was completely random. Blame Google.com :sad:

damn google!

 

Its me too though, I guess I should have sent my original write up, but again, I just felt like it wasnt me. I can do mean and ruthless, but I couldnt do it with this album...

 

oh well...

Glad I'm not the only one who felt this way tho. I really want MLD and Samantha to win, so that's why I can't go into the detail of his playing or his album because it's gonna sound so weird not being myself and saying what I want. :skull:

Super sorry, Pedro! 

 

SAVE

Shelven - Slayful, even when dragging

MLD - You met the criteria well, imo.

 

OFF

Lhdang and sumthintoxic - your essays were quite good. But I'm only doing this because I liked the other two better.

 

P.S Conchita, Halsey called. She wants your heel out of her jugular ASAP :ahh: I had a good chuckle reading your entry!

If I'm not mistaken the public vote is a really even ratio of 2 - 2 - 2. :deadbanana2:
