I mean the decline from the 1st day :-((

She may not reaxh the 80000 at the end of the week

The decline is normal, because the first day counts all the preorders until then.

I can't deal with this...

Metacritic was the only thing I was really looking forward to and now.

Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~

it is SO unfair. Really, this is her best album, I'm so angry with the critics... I don't know if this upsets me more than the debut week sales. :crossed:

I love The Fame but it does not deserve 10 point over SLAYPOP...any chance more reviews could increase the score?

Honestly it's the album title.

I really don't think it's the album title. It's the whole campaign and how Gaga has tried to sell it. It's the fact that as an album, and not just a set of songs, it doesn't hang together as well as her others.

 

And yes, more scores could trickle in, but that will seriously slow down now. And the more scores there are, the harder it becomes to raise or lower the score. So, for this to appreciate significantly, it would have to be some serious raves that come in.

Fame IV

To crash the critics saying: is it right or is it wrong?

Critics are critics and that shouldn't change our perception of the music. However the metacritic score is unfair, in my opinion.

Honestly though, if you just step back and listen to each album. I would easily rate TFM and ARTPOP first, then BTW, then the Fame. No bias in my choosing at all. The production is way better on ARTPOP than on all the other albums. I'm simply not going to credit metacritic anymore because this is just ridiculous.

Here for HDD/Billboard trolling us and the real prediction being 500-600k.

 

The draggings that would occur on ATRL :lmao:

I so thought this. Lol.

What fan base would be more fun to troll than little monsters. They know we would flip out.

Billboard "Our original estimates were missing sources..."

I wish. Lol

See, I strongly disagree. I think ARTPOP is far and away her worst effort to date. The production is cleaner in some places than her past efforts, but it's also more stale and sanitized and dull. And the songwriting is much weaker here, and the whole album is conceptually weaker. There's a lot more to a song than its production.

 

Granted, 61 is a little below where I'd score it. (I'd give it a 6.5 or 7, depending on my mood).
