Breh all I saw in this review are 'clumsy rhymes" WTF and missing the complete point of this bar

"“Only island that my nikkas knew was Rikers or Staten,” he says on “40 Side,” a line that’s neither clever nor true—his native Queensbridge neighborhood is just across Roosevelt Island from an island called Manhattan."

No fukking shyt. He's talking about his people and it's not meant to be taken literally. Jesus Christ brehs

I can’t hold u I’m legit tight. I almost don’t even wanna give dude the attention he wants but I also wish I could slap his glasses off his face. Why do publications allow garbage like that to continue? Can an artist block a publication from reviewing their product if they always do so in bad faith?

This gets to the heart of what I can't stand about a lot of modern "criticism" on the net, they can just take one line out of context and nitpick it to death instead of delving into what an artist is actually trying to say. Can't say I'm surprised though, that site has always been smug, condescending hipster trash.
