It's because 1 person writes the review but the whole staff gives a rating. chaeri pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s acknowledging what the album was intended to do by Gaga’s own words lmao it’s a moment to uplift and celebrate younger queer artists. They even say her legacy is still taking shape, which it is, but I think it’s apt to say that this is her attempt at the “mentorship” she talked about and helping young artists get their careers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am reminded similarly of that article NYTimes article where they remark how ironic it is that Gaga is doing the national anthem but Bey is running the show. It's the same idea, like, whenever she isn't culturally resetting, she's DOA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enzo 37,977 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Club Future Nostalgia is so good, and miles better than DoC but you wouldn't undestand it meanwhile CFN sounds like an actual body of work, DoC sounds just like a collection of songs with no relation whatsoever 툭 까보면 어김없이 소리질러와 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichAssPiss 4,921 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 It seems like a low score, but I think it's actually pretty high for a collection of remixes that are bound to have a range in quality depending on taste. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronk 14,762 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Everyone has an opinion. Pitchfork is one opinion, but it's the pop listening public's opinions that counts. I live outside the space time continuum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes no sense because the review could read like the writer gave it a 10 but then the average rating is gonna be way lower?

It's the same idea, like, whenever she isn't culturally resetting, she's DOA. Eh I took it more as it’s clear her interest isn’t really in doing dance pop forever. We all know this by this point. So “passing the torch” makes sense. None of these musicians are doing what she’s doing rn between genre-spanning albums and Oscar movie campaigns. Gaga was once these hungry mfs but she isn’t anymore. She’s really in her own lane so saying “passing the torch”, to me, is acknowledging that she’s well beyond cutting her teeth in the business and that she’s giving that to other artists via this album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobina 2,194 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Nearly a 7 for a remix album! That's not bad at all, their taste, it's showing and not only in the DOC score... "634 blowjobs in 5 days. I'm really quite tired." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
