Is Dr. Luke being a rapist that few people in the industry like a twitter thing? I don't think so. 

There are other albums he’s involved that didn’t get such a low score tho, Feed The Beast for example got 63. I feel like they’re trying to profit from the hate she’s getting (that’s completely justified) by giving harsh critiques and ultimately getting clicks

I’m sorry, this so ridiculous. The 143 album is definitely not as bad as people have been claiming it is, it’s indeed basic and generic and uninspired but it’s not radically different from several other pop albums. The media is missing the mark towards Katy. I know she’s getting a lot of hate because of Dr Luke which I understand but isn’t it a twitter thing? The media is just going with the flow 

calling dr luke "just a twitter thing" is lowkey ignorant as hell, ngl :deadbanana: it's good that the media is catching on and talking about it

mother, what must i do?

Unpopular opinion but I really dislike daisy’s singing part in Wonder. It’s not like the type of song I listen to to begin with and daisy makes it worse which is not her fault. It’s whoever made her do the singing, probably Katy herself.

it's not daisy! it's one of the producer's children iirc

That’s not what I said though. I said the hate she’s getting is mostly a twitter thing. Several artists work with Luke and those sites don’t even care and then suddenly it’s a reason why they should give the lowest score ever. I think Katy got the backlash she deserved. The album tanked. People are dragging her all over the internet. The biased reviews are kinda unnecessary at this point :smh:

I think it goes a bit beyond Dr. Luke though, but I do see what you’re saying. Katy Perry isn’t an irrelevant “artist.” Sure, to some nowadays she may be, but she’s made an impact. The problem, however is that her impact stopped with Dark Horse in 2013 and she has refused to grow, and she’s proving she can’t and she’s become defiant: her VMA speech/refusal to discuss Dr. Luke.

She has shown absolutely no growth. No efforts in expanding her artistry (enter Dr. Luke). 

It almost feels like entitlement — “I deserve this, just because I’m going to call it a comeback” sort of attitude, but with 0 effort, and of course, there’s Woman’s World, released while Katy is dining and yachting with Bezos — clearly struggling with how to help women in need existing in the world of 2024. 

Tbh she’s a clown, and that’s why she refuses to defend her artistry, because she simply cannot. It’s manufactured garbage.

It's very unlistenable, only Truth and Crush are semi worthy of a 2nd listen

it's outdated dance/pop album with no deep lyrics but it wouldn't be so panned if she didn't work with Luke, every review mentions him.

It's a standard pop album I guess. Just not a hill worth for Katy to die on.

Same thing happened around the Tortured Listeners album. Reviews were appearing online after a few hours including Rolling Stone who called it 'An instant classic' when, later, the general discourse was 'actually this kinda sucks'. 

A lot of the media are just writing extreme versions of what they think people want to read at this point.

It's like she tried so hard to be trendy, or be in vogue with the trend, but she really was so left behind. The sounds for this alboom is 5 years too late. Add to that the uninspiring simplistic vapid silly lyrics that goes on and on, you'd start to think "was this what they used to reprogram people's minds for MKUltra?!"  :brat:

Yeah, she is really dumb for that. Even worse if the rumors about her team and label actually against that idea but she's still doing it anyway were true :enigma:

If her label was so against Dr Luke, they wouldn't green light it and wouldn't let their another artist  - Doechii to be on it.
