I'm afraid to love her. I fell in love with Electra Heart, not Marina.

that's unfortunate. FROOT is amazing. give it a listen, you may fell in love again.

I would give it like 3/5 but oh well...

It's a good album. I'd give it a 3/5 stars.

Could you both explain me what makes the album deserve 3/5 though? Because not liking the sound is not a reason.The album is original,lyrically flawless,the lyrics are also amazing..

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. 

They gave ARTPOP a great score though

I know my bad. Was under impression that they gave it a bad score.

In my messy era.

Okay.. Cry Baby is a 4/5 + imo :legend:

Cry Baby is the best pop album since Born To Die, which is legend tier in terms of albums you could listen to all the way through without skipping a single song, imo.

The best albums are one with character. Some songs on BTD aren't my favorites, but they contribute to the sound of the overall album. They add to the album in unique ways. If I described BTD to someone, there would be some sonic highlights of the album I'd mention from songs I may not consider the best. The whole thing is very nostalgic as well.

Cry Baby is simply wonderful. Melanje Martinez's lyrics are some of the most impressive I've ever read. Absolutely brilliant, and this is coming from someone who thought she was tacky and contrived at first, before I gave her a chance. She's in my top five favorite artists of all time.

Doesn't surprise me it is pretty awful along with the rest of the album. The theme put me off at first and then the music itself was just a bit cringe. 

PRISM deserved its rating though it's a great album. Her world tour is proof. 

The hardest thing in this world is to live in it
