That tweet is saying a very different thing to the actual sentence in the review 

Yeah. If anything it's pretty accurate. The whole reason Taylor's Eras tour marketing has been so effective is that each album represents a different portion of her life which is tied to real world events people can pinpoint/remember. Fans unpicking who each song is about creates a story for them to follow, which is why they keep tuning in. It's almost like each album is another series of a tv show.

 

Ariana's albums have followed a similar pattern since Sweetener.

[TROPICUM]

many male singers/rappers base entire albums screaming about their hookups, exes and one night stands but it's a problem when the female pop stars want to talk about their love life (mind you in a more personal, raw way than most of those men)?

 

what Halsey said

 

[Komet]

This is uncalled for because...? It's not a positive critique?  They're revewing an album, its lyrical content and themes are a huge part of it. The endless tracks about one man do feel uninspired, can we come up with something else? 

[Rev8]

Aren't they giving it a high score?

It's amazing how long we've come, when I am looking at these impactful pop albums from 20 years ago - that received bad scores and were dragged to filth for not reason

compared to albums of today

 

as some users said, they praised the album

so if anything, the fans are putting bad connotations on this without the critic's intention

[Dark Phoenix]

Well what else could they be signing about? Ozempic? Jet lag?? Like 90% of their personalities and last impactful moments in the last years were because of their partners.

[favorite crime]

Y'all lack reading comprehension so bad it's scary. They literally praise them for writing about their personal lives in the review

[Peak Now]

Yes the gist of that sentence is positive but idk... it just seems like a back-handed compliment given how mainstream music critic have been dragging the two for "only writing about their boyfriends" for half a decade now

 

anyway 2013 just called they want their drag back

[LOTF]

Us Madonna fans know Pitchfork is so unserious and their reviews are all about the negative aspects of an artist's persona and not the music itself. Glad you guys are catching up....

I lost respect for them. Their music review should not be affected by the artists' personal lives.

It is not, have you read the review? It is just a passing mention, the actual review itself focuses on other points they develop after that, such as the lack of cohesion, scattered and too loose references, etc.

 

They were very generous too, deserved a 6.5 tops.

ATRLers being unable to read.

well gays can't read we know that

[qurl]

i don’t know how you, as an artist, don’t inject your music with references to the media hurricane surrounding your life if that’s …. your reality, you know ???

 

like Ariana and Taylor do not choose to be written about as much as they are … there’s a (un)natural and general fascination with pop stars in that way, and whether it’s right or wrong ….. how should they be expected to not interweave that into the work they produce especially when so much of what is said about them is negative and/or lies ???? of course they would wanna say their piece.

uhh… idk maybe the soon to be #1 song in america, carnival?

 

kanye literally put his new wife in the cover (who he deliberately use's for shock value, making her pose nude and what not) 

 

mind you this is a portion of what wikipedia had to say about the album:

 

Quote

West and Ty Dolla Sign speak of women on Vultures 1, frequently making sexual references.

an album full of his controversies (along with his heavily publicized divorce from kim) and sexualizing and to a point degrading women 

 

but yes let’s all bash the female pop stars for doing songs about exes and ex husbands in a personal way

comparing how each of them express themselves about their love life or partners, the criteria of when it’s “too” much to talk about exes for the critics for male and females is quite laughable 

[hypnodemiluv]

it's true

I can already see them dragging ttpd cause it will have Joe breakup themes 

Like every album? She always centers an album around her love life.

[Just a Gay on ATRL]

Taylor and Ari's love lyrics are about as vague and universal as any other male crooner's love or breakup songs like Bruno, Abel, JT, etc. Just because the public reports more on the women's personal lives doesn't mean their love songs are any different than the boys.
