Jed 7,716 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 seriously you guys need to drop this whole conspiracy theory against Gaga. No metacritic isn't rigged against her. In fact ARTPOP maintained a steady 61 (keeping it green) despite being very much a "mixed-reviews" album. Prism and Bangerz both had the same thing happen to them. Moreover a lot of you say they only criticize her as a person and ignore the music... When I've read plenty of genuine critiques in every single article you guys get offended by (Except the New York Times guy, he's a ****). If people don't like the music, or find it inauthentic they have every right to say that. This was Gaga's bid at authenticity and if you personally think she achieved it then that's fine! But don't get messy because some music critics don't agree with you. I like several songs on Joanne, and I bought it last night.. But some of you guys take this way too personally. Please I'm open to debates but don't think you got the better hand because you use some gif with a dismissive comment underneath it - actually make a point.

Noah X 5,240 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 critics need to go through a journalism screen test before being able to do their job cause they are clearly expired and have no chops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantina 2,943 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I would agree with these critics if they would go song to song and tell us why they hated it in a critical way and not in a "COPIES MADONNA YET AGAIN" way STREAM LEGENDARY ON HBO MAX Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShockPop 7,747 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Mention of ARTPOP, her tour in 2009, red one... But most of all the thing that's bugging me is them not understanding the simplest of lyrics or ideas. It's like they're trying to play dumb so they can rate the album badly. The reviews are rarely based on the album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvanas 5,768 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 My issue is that every review is saying that this album is a dishonest and calculated response to the 'failures' of ARTPOP. It's slander. It's assumption, and it's a blatant lie used to paint Gaga and this album in a negative light. Criticize the music all you want but the moment you call Gaga a character trying on masks, on this album of all things, it's insulting. "Who are we, if not slaves to this torment?"
