Year end lists used to have way more variety. It feels like these critics are now in their own little bubble repeating to each other what is good and bad without actually listening to any music. Music is way too subjective to be treated like that. Metacritic's impact
The year end lists are... ok. I'm kinda pressed that Jessy Lanza, Laura Mvula, NAO etc. are being snubbed while so much white male mediocrity *cough* Bon Iver *cough* is being praised to the high heavens. But, that happens every year so

Yeah I think Blackstar and Lemonade are both great albums so I don't mind their praise but it's basically these critics saying the same thing over and over again like sheeps:
Lemonade - Blackstar - FOMOCEAN - Solange's album - A tribe called whatever - Radiodead and ANTI as a bonus around 15-25
I wanna watch a lot of current/upcoming movies (Arrival, Moana, Passengers, Edge Of Seventeen, Nocturnal Animals...) : Hopefully they'll be available in good quality soon
