Circus - 70
Glory - 50
Blackout - 40
The NYT is ****ing trash  And the entire review never once touches on the quality of the sound. The reviewer's argument is that he doesn't like it because it's too focused on sex. This man is genuinely a ****ing idiot Why is his opinion piece being counted for a review site?

Why though? Teenage Dream (an Album of the Year nominee) was in the 50s and Unapoligetic (a Grammy Award winning album!) got a 61 metascore. Both albums are unquestionably better than Glory, vocal and production-wise, so why would Glory get in the 70s (a range where albums like Rated R, 21, 1989, and 4 landed)?

And I'm already supported by one of the most truthworthy and presitigious publications, which is the second MC review released.
You guys overhyped it and can't handle the dissenting critical opinions now.

That NYT "review" never once reviews the sound of the album nor the lyrics of the album. He literally reviews the theme of the album, describes the sound/lyrics and gives a score. Mess @ suburbannature defending it for her life when it's less professional than a Buzzfeed review

"She talks about sex and I don't like sex."
Woah, that review really dragged her. Meanwhile, Glory is a cohesive (poor Teenage Dream, Talk That Talk, 1989 and 21) album with more than 5 good songs (poor 1989, Talk That Talk, 21, 4 and Rated R)

For news, doesn't mean their music reviews are equally as respected
