This is the most ignorant thing I have read today. If you don't know what you are talking about, shut the **** up :later: 

First of all, you need to relax.

Second of all, I'm not ignorant, I just don't keep up with newer artists.

And third of all, don't be rude to me.

Apologies, but to me it seems that you said "and it doesn't look like I should". I thought you meant you take websites like Billboard's word for it and therefore you wouldn't know what you are talking about. Maybe I've misinterpreted it, feel free to explain

Please correct me if I make any grammar mistakes, I want to master English as much as possible.

It seems to me like you're the one that takes it to heart, if you love it so much, why do you care what others say? Look at Gaga and how much she is torn down we still love her.

And there's really nothing to explain, hun.

I don't care about what people say UNLESS they don't know what they are talking about. 

I just don't like it when people only see the surface of things, that's all.

I was actually just surprised at how many people are new on the artist scene that I'm just glad I'm not keeping up with da **** it has nothing to do with Cry Baby I didn't even read the articla man.

I'm listening to the album as I type this...

I have been watching the videos she's released and I see that the theme is consistent and she has a much darker and deeper story behind the bubbly cute music

The overall songs may begin to sound similar, but the lyrics are simple yet complex

I think it deserves a much higher rating than 2/5...she put in effort and directed the videos herself...

Billboard just doesn't like the overall vibe and maybe the theme creeps them out a bit coming from a grown woman, but it's not meant to be taken literally AT ALL...it's mostly symbolism

Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

You need to accept that you are the only one probably that cares that much, or life is probably going to tear you down unless you losen up, anyway I am done with you.

That's strange, Billboard usually gives everyone a blandly nice review. 

I agree with them on that particular line ("Dad's with a slut" etc), that was pretty cringeworthy and hard to overlook while listening to the track. She does lack nuance at times.

"Cry Baby shows that Martinez is ­admirably ambitious, but her insistence on sticking to the album's central idea leaves her contorting into uncomfortable positions."

Typical that Billboard would see that as a negative.

Exactly.

Billboard want the same cookie cutter, safe type. As soon as someone tries to be ambitious and show something different (like ARTPOP etc.) they trash it. 

She should not be bothered though. There will be more critics out there that would understand the direction she wants to go. 

In my messy era.

They didn't trash ARTPOP :hunty:
