Taylor fanboy Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Y'all need to find love in the chaos like Mother Spoiler I'm afraid the next TV which we all know what will have "lukewarm" reviews too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vale9001 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) Rihanna, Miley cyrus, Springsteen, David Bowie, madonna etc ....have 4 or 5 from pitchfork. Even Beyoncé has a panned album (a 5.6 album) If a 6.6 It's her "drag era" from them trust me you're lucky. Edited April 22 by vale9001 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not the biggest fan of Reputation, but if there's one release that can restore peace, I know it's Rep TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiliam Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 lets me have a meltdown about those critics like you don`t have to like her music or give her rave review but as someone so called music expert they should acknowledge how`s impressive it is, she came up with those lyrics and melody mostly on her own with the help of only 1,2 collaborator. And the way she writes that many songs, all with unique metaphor concept like alien abduction in down bad, the toys song, daddy i love him, florida is about escape to florida to start a new life after commit a crime..... like which other artist can come up with that many concept and execute it that well and clever.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruel Summer Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Wait the Anthology section of the Pitchfork review was like three lazy lines, the unseriousness of it all lemme give I Hate It Here an extra stream for them because I straight up don't believe they bothered to listen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean what's there to do when she's touring again soon? Interviews? Talk shows? Set the internet ablaze and onto the next chapter of her life, this queen.

AnitaFalafel Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I don't think we as a community have had enough of a meltdown about The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived. That ******* bridge....

ChapelHooker Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 my mom, who isn't even close to being into any pop culture at all, called me yesterday and was like "this TV station was playing songs from the new Taylor album every hour and I LOVED it" and then she listened to the album. she didn't know about the anthology and I was so happy to be able to tell her that there's even more songs! she even has favorites already, her standout being But Daddy I Love Him (taste.) the reach she has 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's her fault for dropping 31 songs in one go. To form a genuine opinion you need to listen to an album a good 3/4 times and that's a regular album where you could start picking up melodies and meaning easy due to shorter lengths. With a 2 hour project you definitely need at least a few days to let it fully settle. But I guess they are not paid well enough to spend 10+ hours on one album, hence the superficial reviews. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not her fault to release 31 songs. It's not the First double album in history. Your job is to listen to all the work. Then you can say if you like It or not. It's a detail but also... if an artist presents his project as a double album you review It as a whole album, It's not on you to decide otherwise, it's lowkey (and not that lowkey) unprofessional.
