They gave Cannibal a good review.
They gave MDNA a good review.
Same goes with The Fame, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, and many other recent Pop albums.

Yeah, I just saw that Cannibal review, and I'm honestly amazed. o_o
That's actually really surprising compared to some of the other albums they gave worse reviews (Teenage Dream, Femme Fatale).

Most of the critics agreed that Cannibal is better than FF and TD, hence Cannibal being in the 70s and the other two... not being that high.

It's strange for how much hate Ke$ha gets for her personality and image to see such decent reviews for her EP. I must admit, though, it was a good, compact album full of (surprisingly) distinct songs.

If the album ends up being a huge commercial success, watch it get nominated for Grammys.

Believe it or not, some critics are actually decent at their job: reviewing music.

Cannibal is better than the other albums. It's full of hits and smash... while the others have so many songs that fillers and flops could fit in!

Hopefully by tomorrow we'll have reviews by Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, & Allmusic, three of the biggest music publications. As long as none of them trash it, which I doubt they will, it'll help the Metascore a lot.

Well, they gave Beez in the Trap "best new track," but I don't think they'll like the pop half at all. I'm unsure.

They gave BITT a Best New Music tag, they stan hard for Super Bass, plus her last album got a positive review from them, whereas they've always hated Madonna's recent music.
I'm not expecting much from them, but I doubt it'll be lower than 44.

Oh. Wow.
She has it coming though.
How many critics is this based on?

Pink Friday ended up with a 69. I think it ranged from like 65-74 during the first week.
