I was talking about how her music is unfairly reviewed and critiqued compared to other artists. The fact an artist of her calibre hasn't received a high score on a site like Metacritic whilst some artists who release sub-par to average work get praised on the regular is questionable, isn't it? Also since Gaga is a highly polarizing figure, some critics have their own biases and agenda. There's definitely a double standard when it comes to Gaga and that's just what I've observed regardless of whether I'm a fan or not. I really don’t know about her Metacritic score and how we should feel about it. What I know is that we barely ever hear any public criticism when it comes to her. She’s literally a legend who’s respected by her peers and adored by generations of people, who cares about a couple butthurt critics who lowered some score. 3 1 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auther 22,004 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 (edited) Its up to 67 which is close enough to the 70 I feel it deserves (at minimum). I'd personally rate it like an 80. Edited September 27 by Agunimon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfonso 1,386 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 (edited) Weird, there's nothing wrong with it and it's mostly classics, so it should definitely be 70-80 at least. Edited September 27 by Alfonso Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pachinko 9,820 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 1 hour ago, Julia1987 said: I like the genres of music that she tried to tap into with Harlequin. It just didn’t scratch the itch that I thought it would. It felt very “safe” which is a crazy thing to say about Gaga and moreso an unsafe and unpredictable character like Harley. Most of the covers provided nothing extra. Even Happy Mistake is very forgettable. I predict this album will be lost in the abyss along with Love For Sale lol. going by Gaga’s interviews and referring to it as LG6.5 I think even she wasn’t trying to oversell it as something it’s not. Let’s just take it as it is. Sis, you better run. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edonis 28,550 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Honestly think this will land in the 70s. I don't think she's ever getting 80+ on Metacritic with covers unless she does something subversive and this project wasn't that. But still adore what it is and will continue to recommend it as usual! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricChapelR 1,905 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 I was always wondering why people care about these reviews... At the end of the day they are just normal people paid to "judge" new releases as if their option is somehow better or advised. It's not. They are paid for a job that should not exist in the first place but hey... 🤡 I listened to this album all day and I cannot phantom how much I love Happy Mistake and all the other songs. It's just a very good album, it made my day and today was a celebration for me. and no critic can convince me I'm wrong. Take your salary and **** off. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMF 3,113 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Metacritic scores are always odd for me. But 65 is still good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
