It's that simple. No conspiracies. So the 3k users that have given these reviews are more representative of what "people" like than the millions of people who are enjoying the music as we speak? 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, one of the best albums of decade (agreed upon by critics, industry and GP altogether) supposed to have a higher score than 68/100. Do you disagree Aaron, i would like to hear why 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tm4074 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I don't think the album is anything special but we all know that haters purposely give bad reviews to lower the score and it's not an accurate metric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbitch Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 They don't get checks like publications do 36 minutes ago, TeemoR said: This is obviously true for both Taylor and Beyonce. Which makes it funnier that they constantly come for one another and both do they same and are obsessed with getting Grammys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tovitov Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 In Taylor's defence, AOTY users tend to be very particular about what they consider a good album. There are multiple albums on AOTY with bad/middling user scores that I personally really enjoyed and was surprised to see the negative reception.

JoJo Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I personally love this album, but my twitter TL is currently filled with people making fun of Taylor's songwriting abilities. TTPD will still smash records, but is it too early to say that it might not even be one her biggest eras in a decade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetblindness Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 The only site I really use from the OP is RateYourMusic, and the community there is basically an extension of Fantano lol. Not surprised to see it rated so lowly, though with how strongly some music nerds hate Taylor I wouldn't be surprised if a decent amount of the 0.5s are from people that never even bothered to listen to the album.

John Slayne Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Taylor's music peaked with folklore and it's been downhill since. Swifties constantly hype her up and eat up everything she puts out which doesn't help and only makes her more complacent. That's how she ended up releasing the turd that some of these TTPD lyrics are and y'all STILL want to claim her pen is unmatched. Please. She has too many yes-men around her, and that includes her delulu fans. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicLoverDude Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I'm sure there is trolling going on but Taylor's album is definitely more experimental this time around so not every song is going to click right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
