Yikes, this is bad. Pitchfork acclaim and their likes is kind of the reason Gaga called Ronson/Parker so them hating it is not good news

A key change is supposed to be preceded by a build up to be effective. PI didn't have that.

nn they didn't praise it and Rihanna didn't do **** it was an already acclaimed song officially released before she covered it

And not you thinking Kevin P would work with Rihanna At least Gaga got an original !

Actually Kevin said he'd love to work with Rihanna.

They've given Bey, Gaga, Rih, Ariana, Carly, Fifth Harmony, Ciara and more good reviews as well as average and bad reviews depending on the quality of their work.

Right? One slightly biting review and suddenly this publication is ****. They don't have to love everything an act does. You win some, you lose some.

The real irony comes from the people who are calling this publication "pretentious" when the artist they are criticizing released a song containing lyrics like "I live for the applause...give me the thing that I love...etc."

Awkward.

[Thin White Duke]

Meh.
NME stanned.
+ pretty much every other major review was positive. She's not "getting dragged to the pits of hell". lol

It's pitchfork, girl. I guess that critically acclaimed single will have to wait.

[BoyOnBoy Wonder]

They'll like the album.

[Avariko]

+ This is not even a review though. And Pitchfork gave Carly Rae Jepsen, Ariana Grande, Rihanna etc "Best New Track" so there's that.

Yes, because Gaga sat down and said to herself "ugh, how I can I get this publication that called Kanye West the modern Picasso to like me ((("

lol, what in the world is this logic? You're saying Gaga worked with the people she worked with so she could get a good review from Pitchfork?

[MissedTheTrain]

Regardless, you can't win them all. Not everyone will have the same opinion. The good news is, the majority of reviews are positive

[J a y]

Like I said before, it's just one writer from one publication. Opinions.

You're perfectly delulu if you think theirs matters more than anyone else's

[Yanko]

What is Pitchfork? Everytime an album is released i see people afraid of their review. Arey they something like the Hitler of Pop Music?

Nope, they praised The Fame Monster and said something like Gaga was the next best thing that happened to pop back in 2009 (if i remember correctly). But then Born This Way was out and they never mentioned her name ever on their site again

They didn't lie

Pitchfork is a contrarian publication and all threads involving them should be considered flamebait.

they aren't though. some of their reviews have been contrarian (a daft punk one comes to mind) but there have been many times where their scores have matched up to the overall metacritic scores - the fame monster is an example to this.

imo pitchfork is one of the most fair review sites, especially when it comes to pop music,

They've stanned for both The Fame Monster and Born This Way before + Bad Romance and Telephone appeared on their year end lists.
