Strange how you jump to conclusions so fast Don't even. You brought up the 61 metacritic score and your opinion about a lack of cohesiveness (which is an AP criticism I agree with) so it's pretty clear you were referring to ARTPOP. Strange how you act like I'm new here or something. If you wanna have the balls to be shady, have the balls to own up to what you were referring to when someone points it out. Lastly, skeleton.gun and TheBatman were also starting to bring up ARTPOP in their comments so when I made the post you just quoted I was more referring to them, so I'm not "assuming" people are referring to ARTPOP because those two users very directly were talking about ARTPOP in their posts.

barnabesk 1,230 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I wouldn't consider myself a Beyoncé fan, but she really impressed me with her latest effort. Visuals and music are great, I have never seen something like this before. She deserves all the praise she currently earns! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again sis you are ASSUMING things.,Maybe I picked that random number and made a generalization. ARTPOP is not the only one with a score of 61 so don't even.

But I do love what I saw from the short film, looks like she's here to put everyone back in their place. That is a lie tho. The song that has the most writers is Hold Up with 8. Pray You Catch Me (3 writers), Hold Up (8 writers), Don't Hurt Yourself (3 writers), Sorry (3 writers), 6-inch (7 writers), Daddy Lessons (4 writers), Love Drought (3 writers), Sandcastles (4 writers), Forward (2 writers), Freedom (5 writers), All Night (7 writers), Formation (4 writers).

ARTPOP is not the only one with a score of 61 so don't even. What a coincidence that your random number was related to ARTPOP's metacritic score and the generalization about an album lacking cohesion is a criticism often used on ARTPOP, and what an extra coincidence it is that we are also on a Gaga forum and you also previously have spoken negatively about ARTPOP. But please, keep trying to pretend you were referring to "Victorious" by Wolfmother. anyways, I'm getting off topic now. The thread is about Beyonce's metacritic score, not about a collection of very odd coincidences surrounding your posts that most certainly were potentially not about ARTPOP in any way. - Regarding the topic, the number will probably go down but I think it'll still stay pretty high. She tends to do very well and I would argue this album is already starting off being received better than other things she's put out. High, very high, 80s is what I'm predicting for the final score.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 26,836 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 LMAO at the FUMES. "she's overrated" "she bought it". Pleaaaaase. You guys are literally no worse than the people who claimed Gaga bought her Billboard award. Accept that something you don't like is well received and then move on with your lives. Besides there's only 8 reviews up so far... It will go down just like with every album... 24 minutes ago, LG said: Multiple songs in the album has more than 10 writers on the track, which is a shame. But I do love what I saw from the short film, looks like she's here to put everyone back in their place. A lot of the writing credits come from samples and interpolations though. On 6 Inch there are like 7 or 8 people with credits just for samples. There's still quite a lot of writers in general even when you take the samples away, but imo it doesn't matter. No credit is weighted more than another - someone can just add one line or even a word and they get their name on there. Even some songs from ARTPOP have like 5/6 "writers" (Applause has 8) but we know that most of it came from one person. Long story short I think people put too much thought into writing credits and the like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had basically nothing to say on this entire album, and the worst sin of all it sounded cheap. The lyrics and "ideas" were not interesting, and any social commentary you are trying to squeeze out of it is absolute delusion. Please, enlighten me to this ARTPOPian ideal you speak of. I thought it could mean "anything." you're a newbie, maybe you were not here during the era and didn't experience its impact and its aftermath. there were countless threads made on a daily basis, either standing by or shitting on AP. you can look it up, including my posts. i also suggest that you watch all of gaga's interviews from the era and read up on warhol, popart, performance art, marina abramovic, jeff koons, and bob wilson. saying that she had nothing to say (every song is an adrenaline bomb, her pain exploding into electronic colors) and that the album lacks any form of social commentary (what about rape culture, celebrity perception, or gender roles?) is ignorant. it seems that you already made up your mind, so it's not my fault that you're not open to explore the interpretive depths of the album. disagreeing is one thing, but saying that it's delusional is, as i said, ignorant, negative, and not at all constructive. @Kayla, sorry, but the member was specifically referring to gaga ("your fave") and her inability of releasing a coherent/cohesive album. i just stated my opinion. OT: lemonade is a nice concept album, but i think the score is a bit high. i really enjoyed the visual film and its poetry. if you hurt taylor swift, i'll hurt you back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
