Meat 18,960 Posted September 25, 2022 Author Share Posted September 25, 2022 I’ve always wondered if this was true because how can an album with songs like “Me!” And “You need to calm down” have a better score than most female pop albums Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Future Lovers 5,357 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Anyone who thinks this is not a widespread occurrence in the entertainment world is living in delusion. I don't doubt that this is true, because it's true for most of the business. Do you really think teams and labels don't get involved to cut some deals or put pressure on critics to review their artist's album well? Do you really think that studios don't make deals or put pressure on critics to review their film well? Of course they do. Criticism is a legitimate profession, but it is only as honorable as the other professions it rubs elbows with. Critic reviews in this day and age are little more than a promotional tactic and if a team or a studio has the resources to influence them, then they're going to influence them. I don't think it's right, but to simply level criticism at one specific artist for this is rooted in something else other than just getting the word out, and it clearly wouldn't have come up if that other writer hadn't have said he was pressured into dragging the album.

Illuminati 15,293 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 This feels intentionally vague. I assume he's talking about his experience at Complex where he wasn't a music reviewer but rather a pop culture blogger, so it makes sense that Taylor's team would approach them for defamation, especially around that time when all gossip publications were fabricating stories about her.

fatrat 84 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I can imagine Taylor's former management/publicist (pre-2014) doing this. They were unpleasant on numerous fronts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudraCNG 13,320 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Big publishers do this in the video games industry, they tell you which score you must give to their games or they won't send you early copies ever again, so this isn't surprising.

SimonBaetens 3,337 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I hope one day everybody understands that everything about her is fake, constructed and only aimed at making as much money as possible. There is no integrity there whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
