Blade Runner Posted April 26 Posted April 26 The bitter, jealous girls in here thinking this is destroying Taylor's career or something when in reality it's only radicalizing her ULTRAMASSIVE fanbase even more because they love to protect her. Keep trashing her lol 1
perfillusion Posted April 26 Posted April 26 The mixed reviews are due to a combination of factors. #1 - She's TOO famous. It's starting to make people uncomfortable. They feel the need to "knock her back down where she belongs." #2 - the album is too long and she's overexposed. It's a surprising faux-pas for her. The triumph of Midnights/The Eras Tour should have led to a break for at least a year, not 30 more songs.

When you are THE artist of the world atm you can't deliver mediocrity. It also didn't help that Cowboy Carter was released before this. People are seeing a clear difference in quality and talent. The CC album is more than just music. Just like Michael Jackson and Madonna, Bey is breaking social barriers. Then Taylors album dropped; which people are not only finding mediocre, but also makes them think that she is adding very little or nothing to the bigger landscape beyond emo tween heartbreak songs.

Patient Zero Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Anyone seen Ajays review? It's locked behind her Patreon. Is she trying to milk the Swifties? 1
stevyy Posted April 26 Posted April 26 The biggest albums - or some of them - have the worst reviews. Like Mariah's Music Box has a rating of approx... 56 / 100 and sold 27 million copies. albums that critics hate, are often the ones that the GP loves. 1

I don't think anyone listen to a record because of a review.

Bethenny Frankel Posted April 26 Posted April 26 I'm surprised we haven't gotten more videos of Swifties crying like that one girl in Australia over this 1
newaespa Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Weird how we are not allowed to protect our fave artist yet you guys are allowed to hate on her what a ******* clown 1

The album debuts at #5 on my personal chart... and I have been labelled a bitter boomer as well. I don't think real life boomers would know who she is. By Boomers I think of 70/80 year old people. (at least in my country, Boomers mostly only know local acts from the 70s and 80s).

"People are seeing a clear difference in quality and talent" Literally WHO, certainly not streaming users nor people that consume music in physical formats. If Beyonce's music was THAT impactful to begin with, her (not even) ONE month old album would still generate casual conversations out there, but it seems like not even the Hive is f*cking with it. All that critical praise and the music is NOT being listened nor bought by almost anybody. OT: The general consensus of fans and casual listeners alike is that this album is in her Top 5 at least, and no amount of reviews by the Simon Cowell of critics (Anthony) nor the incel circle jerk forum at AOTY.org will change that!

CoolNebraskaGuy Posted April 26 Posted April 26 I love a Taylor bop as much as any midwestern white girl, but it's really not hard to see that this is her worst work. The lyrics are beyond cringe and there's nothing of substance. Of course it'll smash but man is it a bad body of work 4 1

Your unhinged, uncultured take is exactly the problem with TSwift's fanbase right now: no ability to look outwards. The hive / unpaid music critics / music lovers / music educators / music historians / music connoisseurs love Cowboy Carter, and they most importantly love the time, intention, and effort put in. Once B started her own company in 2011, she has consistently made an effort to create/curate cultural relics. TTPD comes across as disingenuous in comparison. Rushing to CTRL C + CTRL V a bunch of Jack productions from Taylor albums of old to shake a few more coins from couches is perfect music fodder for people untethered to any cultural or historical substance who only weigh Taylor's music based on her past work. From that standpoint, TTPD is a great album (to them) because she literally used old songs critics loved and put new lyrics to them. That is where the dissonance between fan and casual listener comes in. Look at the material: The fact (unpaid) reviews aren't going her way (and she couldn't pass Adele with all of her deals - the big kahunas being more than 10 album variants available, and payment to 860 radio stations to play your entire album for a WEEK) must be disappointing. Sales truly aren't everything when the heart behind the music is absent. Edited April 26 by trainsskyscrapers 11 13
V$. Posted April 29 Posted April 29 For a record-breaking cultural juggernaut, The Tortured Poets Department sounds oddly dated. These are sadly outnumbered by bland filler and compromised by an overwhelming sense of stasis. Swift may be at the height of her commercial powers, but could this be the beginning of her artistic decline? I hope not, but nothing lasts for ever. Not even music review websites. https://www.noripcord.com/reviews/music/taylor-swift/tortured-poets-department 6/10

Oh dear! Cowboy Carter not only broke streaming records but has also had a massive impact on music, country music, business, fashion and culture… What is more incredible is the fact she is bringing her people with her by helping the increase of streams etc for lessor known country artists. All within "a month". Listen to Cowboy Carter gurl. If you have already and don't like it. Sorry 2
