But you could also argue stans grouped together and posted the link on social media and said to give it a good review. At least, in the little monster case (of which they are known for doing). Because lets face it, it's very unlikely the GP gave ARTPOP the best rating of 2013.
I mean, there's no way of knowing that though. The metacritic audience has spoken sistrens. Best thing we can do now is just accept the public's judgment for what it is tbh.
I'd argue that a user poll is much more accurate representation of the gp's opinion than blogs and music reviewers who may or may not have a reason to be biased. For example, I always go by the audience rating on rotten tomatoes over the critic rating because it is usually a better representation of how enjoyable the movie is as a whole.
that or certain fanbases can sit on a computer all day voting for their fav on polls, I wonder which one it is
I don't understand why Monsters/whatever the **** they're called do this. Obviously Kanye/Vampire Weekend/Daft Punk/Arctic Monkeys were voted at #1 because the people who voted thought they were the best albums. Anyone who looks at the poll can see that it's just lady gaga fans trying to make ARTPOP #1 when it's not even mentioned in any other year end lists. It's so obvious seeing the difference in user votes between ARTPOP and anything else that i don't even know what the point is. It's kind of embarrassing.

No this is a great thing. The public will see this poll and everyone will buy ARTPOP and it will sell more than The Fame. Thank you to meteoritic and their poll for saving the ARTPOP era.
Monsters signing up on Metacritic and posting their delusional reviews over a ****** album doesn't care. the REAL music critics already reviewed the album. ARTPOP is a crappy album y'all just need to cope.
