not them trying to make excuses agdgeusbsvavsh

the excuses when they overrated Queen with a 7.6 and gave one of its singles Best New Track

I’m not taking a publication that rated Roman Reloaded or Queen higher seriously

Roman Reloaded was higher by .2

Exactly my point, Pink Friday 2 is leagues beyond lyrically and production wise. I guess it’s trendy to hate on the Queen of rap for clicks

So then why did they praise Queen when she was actually in the middle of a hate train?

Using samples is very common especially in rap, so I don't fault that... but the samples are just played in the background and sped up with a rap verse slapped on it. But do you really think an album that has about 5 tracks like that is better produced than how sampling was done in Roman Reloaded and Queen?

6.5 is actually nice of them. But they spilled as always

The review is pretty scathing - seems like the executive editor brought up the points a bit from the one submitted by the reviewer. 

The reviewer doesn’t assign the score. Pitchfork’s scores are determined by polling several of their writers and averaging it, but only one writer is assigned to do the write up which is why there is often a disparity between score and review text.

I answered this above - reviewer submits a score and editor has final approval/choice.

Well.

If Julianne Escobedo Shepherd says so.

Not less than City Girls

[Sombre]

The way the score would have been 4.5 if she weren't on the November Vogue cover too (since P4K and Vogue are owned by the same company).
