I never liked Pitchfork, or most critic reviews. The fact that Yeezus got a 9.5 says a lot about their writers naive mindset when listening to rap.

I don't like critic reviews either, just pointing out how a lot of people on here contradict themselves when it comes to their fav rapper getting shytted on, the Nas grammy situation is another example. Had MCHG got an 8.0 or something, these same stans wouldn't be in here all :damn: :beli: as for the yeezus album a 0 is too high it deserves a -10

A lot of hov stans in here saying they don't care about reviews all of a sudden. The fact that some of ya'll are so bent out of shape over reviews makes it seem like ya'll do care :mjpls:

this review is actually better than their usual work tho. I mean the author did at least take time to talk about actual songs on the album :heh:. Pitchfork doesn't actually critique music they just do unnecessary personality profiles.

for the life of me I'll understand why people give this one site soooo much power. Sitting like :Gladbryan: anticipating the chance to be :angry: at the reviews. :yeshrug:

Are you reading my posts? The thread is about Jay, Why keep bringing up Yeezus :heh: Had Jay got a good review, you wouldn't be in here with all these excuses

Nah, it's about Pitchfork.

You seem more upset than the Jay fans. People can't say that Pitchfork has always sucked without that being an "excuse"? That makes no sense. It doesn't matter who the artist is, I brought up Cole and Wale too. You're stuck on Jay. I'm talkin' about how they've pretty much shyt on ALL artists at one point or another except Kanye.

We can't point that out?

:wtf: the thread is about Jay which is why I'm mentioning him, you trying to stretch out the thread for no reason, I brought up the fact that pitchfork gave Jay's albums more good reviews than bad reviews but i'm the upset one :huh: I've been here since May and seen Jay stans bring up reviews as a source as to why his catalogue is great, but now his latest album got shytted on, now it's time to shyt on pitchfork :heh: Point out what the thread is about, which is Jay-Z, not Wale, not Cole, not Kanye

They were right..yeezus def deserved a 9.5, but they misjudged magna carter..shyt should of gotten at least a 9..the whole review was trash..didn't say nothing about the beats or the song structure or how Hov was spitting heat..all they were doing were nitpicking the lyrics like lil monkeys trying to groom for bugs..just cuz they can't relate to what Hov was saying doesn't mean they should bash his lyrics,,they sound mad..yup they hating..but luckily no one buys albums based of a pitch fork review..

Try'na stretch out the thread? By agreein' with a few other posters that Pitchfork sucks? Cats can't say that we don't like the site?

We can't say that their reviews haven't always been consistent? I'm not aware of what you've seen on here or any other sites, but I don't get why you'd have an issue with people sayin' that they don't dig a particular site, or never have.

Why would that matter? Isn't that what we do all day on here? Talk about what we dig and don't? Cole, Wale, Kanye, and The Clipse have all been mentioned, but dudes are supposed to just be focused on Jay? Dudes can't talk about how they had other reviews for those artists that they didn't agree with? We're not required to get into that "I love Jay/I hate Jay" shyt all day. Some of us have other shyt to cite in regard to Pitchfork. That shouldn't upset you, fam. Be chill..

They have been quite consistent on Jay's albums, they only shytted on KC, BP3, and MCHG, they gave BP1, and 8.7, AG and 8.0, WTT and 8.5, BA an 8.0, BP2, a 7.5, there is nothing wrong with shytting on a review website, but when people who brag about the reviews Jay's gets then get all aggy about one of his few albums to get shytted on, can't help but to point out the contradiction. If you don't care for pitchfork why do you have to get all defensive and bring up Clipse, Cole, and Wale for? You're proving my point breh

You've never seen me speak on any good Jay reviews. It sounds more like you wanted to take this time out to speak on how much you hate the album, and got upset that you saw a few of us discrediting Pitchfork. I haven't seen anyone in this thread talkin' about what other people reviewed this Hov album as. People spoke on what they didn't like about this one site, and you bugged out with your "Jay-Z stan" theories. That had nothin' to do with what was being said.

You don't like MCHG. We get it, but don't get all upset because people have an issue with one website. That's just reaching. It's really not that serious.

Why :umad: for? I actually said the album was ok plenty of times, you can look up my posts, or if you want I can shut you down and pull up my posts stating otherwise, you seem to be taking this personal friend :smugbiden: Find a post of mine stating the album is trash and you'll get 50,000 coli cash from me breh :myman:

That's the point right there. I seriously doubt that anyone cares about your posts history. You're not in court, fam. I'm really not concerned with your issues with "Jay stans" and all that, or how you feel about some album.

All I'm saying is, let people express how they feel about something, without coming in the thread all upset. You're takin' this way too seriously. We're on a forum stating opinions. I don't need to do a post background check on you. You're buggin'. WTF? LOL!!

Just be chill.
