One of those things is not like the others… How's TTPD a commercial failure? It will be diamond by next year. If that's a commercial failure, worry about your fave, whose album, released not too long after TTPD, will only reach half of that

They gave Kendrick the same score of J.Lo?  OMG

 

And the worst part is that the Queen of Farts got a 7.6

This Is Me.. Now is so underrated! It's actually a very decent album. 
 

What makes it more impressive is that JLo managed to pull this off after two decades of subpar musical output (maybe unpopular but I dislike Love?). This is by far her strongest work since 2002's This Is Me... Then, and while I don't think it reaches the heights of the former, This Is Me Now was a surprisingly good return to form. This style of soft RnB fits her so well, much better than the dated EDM pop tracks she's been doing for years. 
 

Can't Get Enough is so early 00s JLo in the best way possible. I had it on replay for months. Other highlights from the album are Mad In Love, Not Going Anywhere & Hummingbird but there's barely any filler on it.

 

Too bad people could not appreciate it the way it deserved due to the stupid twitter and media narratives around a woman who still puts in the effort after such a long time in the industry.

Who cares about streams? They pay the artists cents = nothing. Let's talk about pure sales 

 

[NewStanner]

I actually really like all of these projects (besides the JLO one - cuz I haven't heard it)

Song, Houdini - duh. But I love Fortnight and squabble up too. Cobra is good, but there are much better songs on the album.

 

And covers are already ranked in the correct order from best to worst in the OP

how PF reviews hold any weight or merit at all after giving isis that score is beyond me

[Aqua]

Kendrick for all.

[bielneira]

The way Solar Power is not on this list because it has a higher score makes me laugh hard

Streams don't matter, until they suddenly do, when it comes to calculating career equivalent album sales, only when it enables claiming your fav beat Celine and closing in on Madonna. And all of a sudden "pure sales only" is an "outdated" metric

TTPD, Houdini, Dua
