Pitchfork's review for The Fame Monster is SO good. Have you guys read it? They didn't do one for The Fame, but they're definitely reviewing Born This Way.
That's right, get that indie, biased credit. Even they recognized it. I remember it said something like "at this moment, she's the only real pop star out there".
But, like, imagine that! People interested in following the charts/tracking sales on a music site with a huge focus on just that. Who would have thought.
