Harry 26,836 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I remember before a lot of people on this forum would complain that pop albums were given scores that were too low in comparison to rap albums etc. Now they're hitting the mark and we scream payola? Not saying I agree with the scores of some of these albums but cmon lol. I do think if BTW was released now it would get a higher score than it currently has.

I wouldn't care if she had 100 or 0. They're a mess. bye Like Obey was saying, I think the critics are harsher on her. It deserved higher than that.

miju 375 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Some recent albums do have less reviews than others though which can affect their overall score if the few reviews are all pretty positive also, even if gaga doesn't get a good score, that doesn't mean to attack the other female pop singers lol & iirc, there's a review that gave her a zero & its factored into her meta critic score, unfortunately. doseofamnesia. tumblr. com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopThatArt 2,193 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 It's not really relevant, it's just based on overall reviews the album gets. Go see A Star is Born Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bio 23,538 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I have a feeling people on this site don't know how Metacritic works lol. The side doesn't grade the albums and is not responsible for the score it gets. It only compiles the reviews and shows the total score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This right here. I couldn't agree with you more, babe. I just hope the critics aren't too harsh on her the way they usually are. I don't care what you think about unless it is about me.

Born This Way would get an 82-86 The Fame Monster would get a 93-97. Not even joking. Still remains in the Top 3 Best Pop Albums of All Time. It changed the game, was consistent, delivered brilliantly streamlined instrumentals that were pop but adventurous, had depth but was still radio friendly, and showed Gaga was no one era wonder. Intact, it did better than her already previously commercially panned era despite being more complex. Not to mention that era brought about the sparks bra, the legendary Bad Romance, Telephone, and Alejandro videos, and the Meat Dress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
