A peek behind the curtain
Creating our proprietary Metascores is a complicated process. We carefully curate a large group of the world’s most respected critics, assign scores to their reviews, and apply a weighted average to summarize the range of their opinions. The result is a single number that captures the essence of critical opinion in one Metascore. Each movie, game, television show and album featured on Metacritic gets a Metascore when we've collected at least four critics' reviews.//
And that girls is why most of the flop reviews you post won't count.

Experienced, professional jazz critics have been reviewing this album and none of their reviews are going to count for Metacritic. Yet they let the Slant and Billboard reviews count

Makes perfect sense! Educate me more!
