I think Bey's visual presentations makes reviewers go easier on her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some reviewer also gave it a 0 but I've heard that the review was positive so I'm a little bewildered by it. Yes, this is exactly is what is wrong with judging things by MC scores, some albums have very few reviews compared to other albums. We all know that while a cute album, Glory (14 reviews) is definitely not better than Blackout (24 reviews). 1 hour ago, E Nigma said: Then there's the bias of reviewers themselves towards artists. For example when people review Gaga's albums they tend to focus on her personal life and authenticity instead of the music itself. Joanne for example was criticized by some for not being authentic, but we all know that if that exact same album had a different name attached to it, then Joanne would be much highly regarded. Then how could we forget that terrible and unjust score of 0 that was counted towards Gaga's BTW score. This too! Talking about Britney (again), but Blackout was reviewed amongst Britney backlash and public personal problems. Whereas Glory was reviewed during a quieter time after everything had slowed down for her, so less critics sharpening their knives as well. Same for Lana del Rey - Born to Die is a good, classic album, but it was released during a time when the critical media was deeply annoyed about her "indie, but not really indie" thing, but they finally calmed down and gave Honeymoon good scores (her most forgettable album IMO).

Maybe it's more about genre than race? It can't be about race sis no shade no tea cuz there are some alternative rock albums(by white singers) that have like 90/87 scores on average and imo they definitely aren't better than btw or TFM lol and I wasn't implying you're racists sis I honestly think metacriric is just messy cuz there are biased reviewers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop albums are rarely praised or get score above 8.0, and women have a harder time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I agree reviewers are biased like that one reviewer that was mocking Gaga calling us and her freaks and gave a low score based on ARTPOP when it had nothing to do with Joanne's music Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion if some fans cared about their own careers as much as they care about Gaga's they'd be immensely successful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to stop being incessantly negative or find a different hobby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
