Kapi08 37 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Hope there is at least 1 pop-beat song (no-ballad) But I am still excited for what she prepared for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FfFfFfFF 56,110 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Regardless of people equating GP appeal with critical appeal, she never released an album that received universal praise (a score above 80), so this is surprising - one one hand. On the other hand, while is true that in the past, incredibily high scores like these were only given to artists like Bjork, nowadays critics are more open to records from pop artists (see Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift etc).

True, critics are much more lenient now. Chromatica is literally Gaga’s most acclaimed album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew it all along. Sadly, I remember that it debuted with 80+ but it the score fell as they added new reviews. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not. Most albums get between 10 to 20 reviews at best, and if it's a hot release it will get around 27-34. 25 had 35 reviews, 21 had 34 as well. It's unlikely it will go beyond as there is a limited number of publications that get to publish reviews on metacritic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadreMonster 2,584 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Ok, I like Adele and I think she’s great but critics act as if she created music and no, you don’t have to make music that is unique and boundary pushing but her music is just elevator music half the time.

Lextyr97 19,986 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I’m not hating on Adele’s album cause how could I? I haven’t heard it. But it seems like everyone is getting such high scores lately, yet I feel like in retrospect nothing has deserved the score. Except Future Nostalgia actually Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
