WHAT A FUCKING JOKE
PAN OF THE CENTURY
REVIEWED BY A WHITE WOMAN
fuck pitchfork fuck ian cohen fuck ryan schreiber
so now that it didn't get the ridiculous score that you guys expected, does your outrage turn to ironic outrage or do you slink back to /pol/ to post more trump memes?
wow, i thought this was getting a 9.0 or higher
>>64359496
the latter
shut the fuck up ian is the only tolerable one
>8.5
>bnm
come on p4k, give it one or the other
good fucking riddance.
terrible review
pitchfork always tries and pop a wheelie on the zeitgiest. they shouldve given this a 9.5, shes already black madonna, this album could literally make her as big as whitney houston, diana ross, janet jackson, madonna type shit. really think pitchfork missed the mark on this.
just because pitchfork are culture vultures and poptimists i figured theyd give this a great review.
Deng I'm honestly shocked
>>64359496
memes desuu
>>64359572
except the album still plays it safe. Beyonce is only such a wild cultural figure because of her, not her music
>>64359580
>I'm honestly shocked
Use the memes. Don't become the memes.
It's just a shitty website.
rolling stone gave this album 5 stars
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/albumreviews/beyonce-lemonade-20160425
this album will be number 1 on every poll that matters come year end, will be top 5 on pitchforks too
I was expecting at least a 9.3 after the amount of time p4k has put into shilling both the album and Beyonce as a brand. 8.5 actually feels like a bit of a pan considering, like they couldn't give her a 5.2 after all of this but 8.5 feels like a bit of a cop out.
>>64359626
6 inches? dont hurt yourself?
hold up, sorry, freedom, formation are all great single potential/hooks.
hold up is the best pop song of the year so far. she needs to release the video of her smashing stuff on vevo.
WAIFUPOSTERS LEAVE
ohh so music isn't actuallly about quality it's about the cultural impact and how popular it is? I see. I am learning a lot
>>64359458
oh no
dont make this about 'feminism vs douchebags'
i can be a feminists and still think this is sterile and forced
>>64359626
of course it plays it safe, beyonce's music is manufactured and her management is interested in making money. even her political activism, while im sure is sincere, is played up for marketing.
>>64359689
have u listened to the album
>>64359715
yes. it is 2016 and she is one of the biggest pop stars in the world.
biggie and pac were played up for marketing. nwa, did u see straight outta compton?
>>64359705
agree with you 100%
I thought there were a few good songs on it
>>64359717
its shit
People are going to be extremely upset when they find out the album was reviewed and rated by a white woman. P4K may even issue an apology and an article on the importance of diversity in music. Screencap this, mentally if you want.
>>64359689
of course it is. Have you looked at the indie scene in the last 20 years ?

this is the dumbest thing i've ever read. so how danceable a song is = quality. kill yourself.
>>64359777
great post, trips for truth
i am a normie, had a kegger at my house this weekend with 200 people, did coke, ket and drank a shit ton. i love this album and love babyfather and love anco and grips and nmh and burial.
and i still live a normal life, get pussy, go to school, drink. and i do this in a social setting, my roommates love fjm cause i showed them the night josh tilman, they love nmh and grips too
everyone on this board isnt a basement dweller who listens to slint and gy!be anymore
beyonce kanye kendrick taylor swift are culture and are music and will be remembered like prince, bowie, and all the others weve lost (anco will be remembered like beatles too), maybe not rightly, but it will happen,
its not 2007.
haven't been on p4k in like a year, when did they change the layout?
it's so cheesy now
i still can't believe people fell for the "her s/t is really good" meme
>>64359888
>i am a normie
You're a teenager is what you are. No one gives a fuck that you "did coke", ace. Don't work goofy try hard shit into your posts for no reason.
>>64359888
This is some good bait
>>64359861
Can't wait for your kids to ask you about the music of your time, and you try to explain to them all the pointless forgotten music you love, and they'll just shrug you off and turn on the Beyonce as they drive you to the retirment home
>>64359888
>and love babyfather and love anco and grips and nmh and burial.
>they love nmh and grips too
is that supposed to be surprising or something? that's all extremely overhyped and pleb popular music.
>>64359888
You're the worst kind of poster. Plenty of "normal" people can listen to those "obscure" artists like slint and gy!be. Perpetuating the idea that only "normal" people listen to X music is the exact same shit le wrong generation kids pull. Consider suicide my friend.

>>64360001
im 22
what im saying is this isnt the same board that it was when it was all post rock and black metal and this website is not a anime imageboard anymore, internet culture is not about the bands that this board has traditionally been focused on e.g. post rock, 80s alternative, 90s alternative, idm. its pop music. these black musicians are the great rockstars of our time.
its hard to deny, its 2016. pitchfork is owned by conde nast. kanye beyonce grimes drake kendrick jamie xx are the big people now, not anco, arcade fire, grizzly bear, fleet foxes. heck, LCD have been overshadowed by Guns n Roses.
the radiohead score will be interesting.
>>64359974
>having kids
you really are black
>>64359777
>>64359888
I know this is bait, but anyways: nobody cares. How much drugs you do or how large your social circle is, that doesn't make you special. Your argument is also retarded, people listen to music in various settings: while jogging, studying, daily commute, when bored and in public. Few of those occasions are social and people who truly like music will invariably have some intimate time with the records they like. Kill yourself.
>>64359888
hahahahaha what is this shit
trying to prove yourself so hard over nothing
you're pathetic kid

learn to read english
>>64359974
I know you're memeing, but poptimists really do think this way.
Poptimists care more about brand recognition than music. It's almost as if poptimism on review sites and discussion boards is part of a big marketing scheme... hmm
>>64360314
nobody said "normies" didn't visit the board you're just talking about precisely fuck all jesus christ
>>64360298
fine forget that read the rest of my post
>>64360314
holy shit i can't believe you don't listen to obscure music like slint AND you have sex
congratulations man, you've discovered the secret to life. you can only be successful socially if you listen to the most popular music. bravo on your outstanding logic and your integrity
>>64359974
just because something has become popular due to being heavily marketed and manufactured to appeal to the masses (and many cases, the lowest common denominator) doesn't make it's musical content inherently more valuable than those "obscure" pieces of work
>>64360339
i did, it doesn't really mean anything to me. music doesn't work solely as a social thing and lots of people will never judge art in that capacity, so I'm confused about what you're talking about other than "hey did you know that there are people who like popular artists like neutral milk hotel or death grips?" nobody is disputing that.
typical anon in 2060
"Grandpa, what were Beyonce and Kanye like?"
"well son, Beyonce was a marketing ploy created by corporations and SJW tumblr feminists. and Kanye was crazy and an idiot, he had one good album and it was mastered horribly"
"oh, but grandpa, they are like so famous and respected, like the beatles or elvis!"
"no son, they are garbage memerap, here, listen to these kishi bashi and Boris tapes I have, this was the real music of the time"
"......im gonna go play with my oculus rift grandpa...."
>Dudebros ITT are actually taking Beyonce's side and not /pol/'s for once
What a time to be alive.
>>64360392
His point seems to be that popular music has value because only people who listen to popular music have fulfilling social lives. His evidence is his alleged drug use and sex life. It's piss poor logic and disingenuous... I wish it was bait but these "le right generation" kids are really like this.
>>64360440
sounds good to me tbqh

i listen to slint u mongoloid.
donuts is my fave album of all time. black flag my war is my second favorite. im saying you can listen to beyonce and taylor swift and can and ELP if you fucking want. genre lines no longer exist.
>>64359800

>>64360545
>>implying anyone ITT is going to have kids
i plan on it, most people do
>>implying that to dislike either artist you have to be a /pol/tard anti-SJW
u dont, but many hide behind racism and "redpilled" on anonymous imageboards to avoid saying anything of substance
>>implying that questioning Kanye's behaviour isn't a valid criticism
it is
>>implying either artist will seriously reach the level of fame the Beatles did
MJ and Prince were at a higher level than the beatles, kanye and beyonce and jay z will be in 20 years
>>implying that disliking Kanye West means I don't like hip hop
never said that, but damn that last 10 years must have been pretty shitty for you
>>implying my dislike of two popular artists means I only listen to obscure music
never said that

i was implying that, not to you maybe but to some ppl in this thread
>>implying I'm retarded enough to use the no true scotsman fallacy
>>implying the oculus rift will still be new technology in 40 years
sorry holograms
It's objectively worse than her last album so that score makes sense.
What's wrong with a score 8.5? That's like a B average.
>>64359496
8.5 is high as fuck
BTFO
BEYONCE IS FINISHED
WHITE MALES WIN AGAIN
>>64359888
No one cares that you did coke you arrogant insecure cunt.
>>64360592
Thanks for the permission to listen to whatever I'd like. I already do, and I don't give a shit about how popular or trendy anything is. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy some mainstream music.
I know you feel enlightened because, my god, you listen to BLACK FLAG as well as BEYONCE. Wow man! It's amazing that you've listed a few perimeter popular western artists as if I'm supposed to be blown away.
My objection was to your idea that musical taste is somehow linked to social success, and clearly you experience it since you're bragging about doing coke and having sex.
Plenty of people have sex, some of us have abused drugs. I don't have to listen to Beyonce and I can object to certain things about her music without it negatively affecting my social life. This is an image board, not a party. I don't complain about the music at parties because it's not my place.
Also LOL at the idea that artists like Slint or GY!BE were any more popular in 2007. Stuff like Beyonce has always rained supreme. Poptimism has just made it more acceptable for retards like you to add to your repertoire to impress everyone around you.
>>64360765
u clearly did not go on this board in 2007 if u think beyonce was ever bought up
and i just brought up the drug/sex stuff because im not a lonely neckbeard who falls asleep with his body pillow crying to dads every night, and i wanted to make that clear
>>64360649
>MJ and Prince were at a higher level than the beatles, kanye and beyonce and jay z will be in 20 years
MJ and Prince were very popular and may have been more popular while they were active, but neither artist can dream of reaching the massive sales the Beatles amassed.
And c'mon dude, Kanye's record sales are mediocre and no where close to Beatles, Prince or MJ. You're not being sincere here.
>never said that, but damn that last 10 years must have been pretty shitty for you
Yeah man, not liking a popular artist made the last ten years terrible since they were the only artist that existed. Kill yourself kanyefag.
are beyonce fans going apeshit yet that it "only" got a 8.5?
>>64360649
>>64360812
Dude, 2007 was 9 years ago which would have made you 13 years old. Don't pretend like you've been active here since then.
You're conflating two ideas. Music like Beyonce was always popular and would always have been played at parties with "normies." People weren't having house parties and playing Slint in 2007 because rock music was more popular. And don't pretend like your 13 year old ass was going to parties to comment.

Record sales mean jack shit in todays industry. kanye has controlled the music media narrative for the first half of this year, that is undeniable. he already has MDBDF, widely hailed as one of the best rap albums of all time, 808s completely changed everyrthing, all modern rappers are influenced by that
>Yeah man, not liking a popular artist made the last ten years terrible since they were the only artist that existed. Kill yourself kanyefag.
lmao so what do you listen to bro? Aesop rock? atmosphere? ka? roc marciano? flatbush? joey badass?
seriously im curious
this thread seems like a really big turning point in something or other
>>64360932
yes of course music like beyonce was always popular but not on the internet and the people who listened to her were not on the internet.
no one has ever had a house party and played slint,
in 2007 i listened to lil wayne and went on /b/ alot, but i know the history of this board.
>>64361007
>yes of course music like beyonce was always popular but not on the internet and the people who listened to her were not on the internet.
haha, what? do you seriously believe the internet was some secret club in 2007 that "normies" didn't use?
>>64361007
>yes of course music like beyonce was always popular but not on the internet and the people who listened to her were not on the internet.
4chan =/= the internet
>>64361030
no, but people were not on iphones on facebook instagram and twitter 24/7 like everyone in the western hemisphere is now
>>64360988
>Record sales mean jack shit in todays industry
Actually, it means fucking everything. Especially when we're talking about fame... which is the fucking topic.
>kanye has controlled the music media narrative for the first half of this year, that is undeniable
wat
>he already has MDBDF, widely hailed as one of the best rap albums of all time, 808s completely changed everyrthing, all modern rappers are influenced by that
Good for him. Critical acclaim != commercial success.
>lmao so what do you listen to bro? Aesop rock? atmosphere? ka? roc marciano? flatbush? joey badass?
What the fuck does that have to do with my dislike of Kanye West or my ability to listen to things other than him? Seriously, kill yourself. You can't accept the idea that someone else doesn't like Kanye West and it's triggering you.
>that meme image
>>>/ktt/
kanye fans are the bernie sanders supporters of music
>>64361050
Did you forget about Myspace? That's what people wasted their time on back in the day. There were other more relevant online forums as well, LiveJournal being one of them.
And believe me, there were plenty of Beyonce fans on LJ.
>>64361050
what does the current popularity of facebook have to do with what people listened to? you do know that myspace was a thing, right? not that it's even relevant. the internet was popular and accessible in 2007.
I know you were 13 then so your memory might be shit but please stop pretending you know what you're talking about.
>>64361099
Kasich - Linkin Park
Ted Cruz - Gospel Music I imagine
Trump - Actually couldn't possibly guess
Hillary - I bet something like Beyonce/Taylor Swift
Bernie - Kanye West
As Bernie supporter, I'm ok with this.
>>64361091
who are some rappers from the last 5-10 years that you have enjoyed and listen to a lot.
>>64361145
u mite be right
i didnt really use myspace, but i dont believe it was ever as big or controlling as facebook, twitter insta snapchat was. also everyone has a smartphone with a built in browser that is basically a mini laptop.
this shouldnt be a tech decision, also u guys keep saying i was 13 in 2007. how old were the rest of you if u dont mind me asking?
>>64360988
>this is your brain on KTT
>>64361195
what does the non-existence of smart phones have to do with what people on the internet listened to? do you remember personal computers, friendo?
and myspace was very big
Can we start a P4K boycott for having a white woman give this revolutionary album a "B" review
The review is racially coded as fuck and basically demotes a bold gamechanging album to a "B" while fucking Vampire Weekend gets a 9+? Literally fucjed up
>>64361156
Are you fucking retarded?

yeah man arctic monkeys and lily allen

i just mean everyone is connected now, everyone i know knows about the beyonce album and was talking about it and the movie yesterday. my fucking parents watched it on sunday night before game of thrones.
>>64361299
and fuck this im going to bed. i like to argue with people on the interrnet that was fun thanks guys, bait hooked lined and sinkered.
>>64361195
It's true that the internet has expanded and become more prominent and all-consuming, but I'd wager that by 2007-2008 most of the general populace (at least in the West) were using the internet actively. People are naturally self-absorbed, so blogging was a huge thing too, especially on platforms such as LJ.
I was 14 in 2007 and all of my friends would use Myspace excessively. I remember that people would get so anal about who their Top 8 were, lol.
>>64361170
>He's become so desperate to win this argument that he's continuing with this red herring
Who gives a shit, friend. I don't like Kanye West. I haven't commented on your musical taste like you're attempting to do (pretty predictable to be honest). I'm shitting on your idea that Kanye West is at all close to the popularity the Beatles enjoyed and that anyone who doesn't enjoy Kanye West must have been musically deprived over the last ten years.
Just the idea that I'm not a Kanye West fan is making you rage enough that you have to try to shoot down my tastes. You're a colossal retard and you should consider suicide.
8.5 is too high
>>64361299
>yeah man arctic monkeys and lily allen
what in the fuck are you even trying to say?
>i just mean everyone is connected now
What does that have to do with what people listened to? How did the Beatles reach such popularity without facebook and iphones?
>>64361318
must be nice to fall back on "i am le bait man" when you look like a retard. Good night
Where can I listen besides Tidal?
>>64360440
my least favorite part of /mu/ is when idiotic children decide to namedrop bands they think are deep and/or inaccessible to be funny, and it's fucking mainstream pop schlock like kishi fucking bashi. jesus fucking christ kill yourself.
>>64361321
Even before myspace, people were communicating over the internet. When I was younger, people used ICQ, AIM, IRC, MSN Messenger, Yahoo Chat, etc.
People would make geocities pages instead of myspace profiles.
>>64361099
What's wrong with Bernie?

hi 13-24 year old tumblr using female
>>64361408
He's the polar opposite of Donald Trump, so naturally /pol/ hates him.
Goddamn EVERYBODY, literally fucking EVERYONE predicted exactly 8.5 from Pitchfork, and there it is. Holy shit, could they possibly be anymore predictable at this point?
>>64361502
hi 12-17 year old 4chan/reddit using white male
Her last album was slightly better even so this one is just meh, nothing noteworthy for people who have a wider music pallet than top 40 pop
>>64361289
The average age of /mu/ posters is around 16-17
This is not a hidden secret, most people are pretty upfront about it - why would you ever be surprised when a thread is filled with posts that sound like they're written by insecure teens willing to argue passionately about topics they know little about?

MEMES
>"At first you might think that Bey is using the album to announce her divorce from Jay’s cheating ass. Because she doesn’t scold, “Don’t you ever do that to me again”—she drags her very famous, seemingly powerful husband publicly, in the process giving the world a modern-day “Respect” in “Don’t Hurt Yourself.” On the “7/11”-style banger “Sorry,” she turns his side-chicks into memes, which will inevitably become “better call Becky with the good hair” sweatshirts that Beyoncé can sell for $60 a pop. Best revenge is your paper."
Cringe-worthy writing
>>64362953
very very well memed
Ok so I haven't really followed the release of this and its reaction here or anywhere else. Is it worth listening to?
>>64362953
That fucking guy and his fucking cup in the background. Why do people make videos and then pause every fucking minute to take a sip from their coffee? It makes me so aggressive I don't even know why. Fuck.
>>64363877
no. It's beyonce, what did you expect?
>>64359974
>getting opinion on art from kids the most impressionable consumer
o i am laffin mu this is where you get bnm
What happened to /mu/? What's this sudden infatuation with Beyonce? She's fucking trash, has been and always will be. SJW brigade? It makes sense with how much praise Kendrick's last album got on here. I don't get it.
>all these slangs and "u"s
I knew /mu/ was already on its way to becoming Tumblr 2.0, but fucking hell...
>>64364063
don't worry. It's a bait fest
>>64360150
ah yes, because post-rock bands and idm used to be the rockstars of their time
>>64364109
It's pretty convincing, I'll give them that.
where can i listen and watch this piece of shit?
>>64364224
Tidal. Just Tidal.
>>64364224
hbo go and tidal. hbo was a stream so i'm not sure if they'll keep airing it or not. you don't want to watch it though trust me.
>>64364266
do we really need another exclusive streaming music site? ...
it needs registration. i will get the video from the free trial.
>>64364310
i am a /fa/ pleb, the trailer looks interesting. not sure about the music.
>>64364224
Currently listening. Slsk it.
>>64359626
Can you explain what is "wild" or interesting about Beyonce, the persona? She doesn't *do* anything interesting outside of music.
>>64364321
They're pushing Tidal so much. It's going to fail miserably. Kanye already gave up and released TLOP on Spotify and iTunes when that was a "Tidal exclusive".
>>64359757
Hello prophet
>>64364347
it's not even a free trial.. i still have to pay for lemonade.
it's free trial for the service, not the stuff on it.
It is the next thing. Streaming and visual albums. I am calling this. Music won't be enough to sell and musicians will be required to make visual content for their stuff.
Even rob zombie , you will see that his new album in May will have videos for every song in it. CD and audio only don't sell anymore.
It is only concerts and videos..
>>64359757
Simply pottery
>>64364389
>Even rob zombie , you will see that his new album in May will have videos for every song in it.
Mah nigga rob's new album is out on friday. But having a video for every song is still something different than releasing a visual album though. Government Plates is a visual album. It's only a visual album if the videos get released simultaneously with the album.
>>64364508
can't wait too. Sure. a Visual album is a bigger thing and has to be made before the release. I think Rob zombie is going to make videos for every song BUT not releasing the songs as singles.
At least not in the traditional way a single was released in CD form back in the day.
Yeezy did a visual album sort of thing too a million years ago..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg5wkZ-dJXA
>>64364551
Yeah his last video Get High got me quite hyped, good old energetic Rob. Yeah that makes sense. His videos don't require much effort, I remember when he posted photos from the Get High shoot and a few days later it was already out and the fucking in a UFO video has a very low budget feel to it as well.
>>64359458
>got higher than 5
Pitchfork confirmed for music industry's bitch.
>>64364688
that was really bizarre. the song is weird and the video super weird.
>them electronics and slipknot guitar cuts on get high
>>64364688
Fucking in a ufo reminds me of violent pornography by system of a down way too much for me to enjoy it.
>>64363807
This cannot really fucking be part of the review
>>64364814
>>64364769
Yeah it's different from his usual stuff. It's a funny song his verse delivery sounds cool and very laidback, but overall Get High is much more enjoyable so far.
i think it's largely better then her last album which got an 8.8. swap the scores around and it's spot on imo desu
>>64361377
pirat
>>64363807
seriously considering a career in writing if this is how low the bar is
>>64364883
I'm on that v on that yellow pill shit
>>64359888
i like how everyone assumes this is bait because theyre so bothered by it lol.
>>64360314
plenty of us do, we just don't need to fucking point it out you special snowflake
>>64359888
oh my god are you in a frat please go hang yourself like right now thanks
re: the score, i thnk it's reasonable. i'd probably go w a high 7/low 8 myself. a few songs i just dont care for that much (sandcastles, freedom, formation) but mostly solid!
>>64359772
You forgot Piero Scaruffi
>MUH black power
>MUH era of slavery and powah weemen
>MUH explicit language and barrier break of uncensored pop culture
>MUH sexual lyrics

>>64364339
she's hot, that's all there is to it
liking her is a literal meme, people like her because they have to
>>64360272
If you aren't baiting, just recognize that you don't like music nearly as much as you think you do and you aren't nearly as enlightened as you think you are.
>>64359777
>participating in the culture of music
Just because you hop the bandwagon of some artist's digital release on limited "exclusive" platform doesn't mean you participate in the culture anymore than someone who went to the record store and purchased vinyl (far more culturally vast selection) to listen alone in their room. People won't even be humming the songs on Lemonade in six months.
Go back to twitter you fucking nob.
>>64365925
this
OMG YAS QUEEN B SLAY OMG SLAAAAYYYYY
>>64365884
>MUH explicit language and barrier break of uncensored pop culture
This part right here, more than anything else, is what proves to me that society is in the shitter
>>64365925
I have just finished listening to the album and I was actually quite impressed. Beyoncé does have a very strong personality which is why she is so idolized. I bet she dominates the fuck out of Jay Z, probably why he cheated on her.
>>64366177
I bet they're both shallow, vapid, greedy, picky people that bicker about stupid shit and have more money than sense
>>64365991
She is literally Buzzfeed: The artist
>>64366218
Doubt it.
I hate what /mu/ has become. Fuck off you normie scum.
>>64365990
So you're telling me that reposting Hunger Games trailers isn't participating in the culture of literature more than going to a library? B-but!! I love books! I read Harry Potter and all the Twlight books!
>>64365006
haha i actually am mate :^) A-B
HAHAHAHAHA /POL/ BTFO. FUCK YOU RACIST /MU/TANTS. MUH WHITE OPPRESSION. "SHE'S A NIGGER SO SHE GETS A 10". '
HAHAHAHHAHAAHAHA GET FUCKED BIGOTS
>>64359458
It's the score it deserved. On a social level, sure it's breaking new ground for Afrocentrism and feminism and all that shit but from a musical standpoint it's really nothing new desu senpai
>>64361327
Obviously you have shit taste, seeing as how you don't like Kanye's music. Try not to shoot up your middle school with all that rage big guy
>>64366411
Jesus christ, you guys have been carrying this on for far too long to be healthy. Could you not let your egos get the better pf you on my venetian gondola board, please?
>>64366411
not that guy, but
>Obviously you have shit taste, seeing as how you don't like Kanye's music.
are you implying that not liking some cancerous generic pop idol means you have shit taste? Has poptimism gone to far?
>>64366378
>sure it's breaking new ground for Afrocentrism and feminism
and all the proceeds will go to record executives, how ironic. almost like they encourage this "controversial" music instead of encouraging good music.
just waking up for class,
dear lord i got people heated last night
>>64361327
well if u dont like kanye west, hes thrown a pretty big web over rap music the last 10 years, there isnt much that doesnt eat least sound a little lilke him nowadays
>>64359458
I haven't listened to this album but I know it's shit
can someone explain whats all this Lemonade shit and why do we hate it?
>>64360440
>"Grandpa, so what was Beyonce, kanye, grimes, and arctic monkeys like?"
>well son for starters that shit was pure fucking garbage for tumblrina sjws. After pitchfork sold out and lost cultural relevance in the counter culture in 2009 the jews took over and merged buzzband hipster culture with mainstream resulting in shitty nigger rap at coachella. Real music of our time like Radiohead and dirtty projectors eventually weren't even that fucking good because faggot redditors caught on and started shilling them endlessly.
>>64361099
>>64361156
kanye is the trump of music. noisey even wrote an article on their similarities
>>64367032
Sounds about right
>>64367032
....th-thanks grandpa
I just want to step up and be the one to say that I'm in awe at everything about Beyoncé and I love the fact that she exists and also we should all appreciate the fact that the undisputed biggest star in pop music is so keen on pushing herself artistically, because that's kind of amazing in our day and age. The last thing that woman needs is my enthusiastic support, but she has it anyway. Go Beyoncé.
>>64367319
>mfw positive vibes
>>64367381
>Harry crane
do u think he wouldve liked beyonce?
>>64359636
>top 5
jeez, at 8.5, I hope not. though of course, sung tongs was #2 of 2004 and didn't even break a 9.
>>64367425
Probably, he was the only one that remained a cucked nu male by the end
>literally going for sloppy seconds on Don's wife after don divorces her
>>64367319
If Beyonce were interested in pushing herself artistically, she probably wouldn't have wanted the help of the laundry list of people she had to manufacture her music for her. I know this is probably bait, but it's still worth refuting because some people actually believe this. Is there a long list of credits on the back of Salvador Dali's paintings? Is Michael Bay an artist for being the figurehead in making commercial shit?
>>64359888
i've got a normie af friend who likes beyonce AND gybe. godspeed isn't really inaccessible. but then he likes swans too, i guess. idk. i keep meeting all these people that like stuff like swans or that fucking xe or whatever album from last year or that guy who made dataplex, and then they love shit like beyonce and bump new kanye forever when it comes out and i just don't really get it, like how can you like just ANYTHING, like not everything could possibly appeal to you, right?
>>64359772
You must love Endtroducing.
>>64367612
genre lines dont exist anymore. with streaming and the internet u can get access to anything. im listening to beyonce right now but in 10 secs flat i could switch to burzum or gang of four or venetian snares just like that ya know
Reminder that rym removed all negative reviews of this album on the basis of being written by white males.
>>64367716
or, ya know, you're a retard who doesn't have a developed taste because you haven't actually listened to much music (and most of that as background music) so you just like everything in an attempt to appeal to as many social circles as you can.
you know, either or.
>>64367779
sure, or that
sorry i dont have time to listen to BORIS's entire back catalog or dig up early 80s chicago house 7 inches or walk the streets of manhattan buying mixtapes
I honestly thought this album was p. mediocre
Beyonce was much better
>>64359496
I'll probably just keep posting here and discussing good music and shit like that
Now that your overhyped trendhopper slapped together "let's take financial advantage of the current american cultural climate by forcing out an album by a marketable artist" has been outed for the cash grab it is what will you do?
Slink back to facebook to post super in depth politically analytical status updates?
I'm a white man and I'm reviewing this album. This is my review:
I kind of liked the first song. The second one was literally named "Hold Up", which made me giggle.
The third one got me bored and I kinda stopped listening.
Rating: 2/5
>album comes out
>no one talks about the music
>instead everyone starts shitflinging about politics, sexism, racism, and music culture

and you never will because you don't make time for music. so long as you can have some background noise and be able to have shallow conversations with people at social gatherings about the new flavor of the month album, music has served its purpose for you.
>>64362183
>>64364712
this desu p4k fucking sucks
>6 inches
w-what did she mean by that? it is not enough for her?
Album will be forgotten in a few weeks lol
I've never read pitchfork reviews, but this one just talks of what the album is about lyrically and that if you're this kind of person who's had these experiences you'll love it.
Not only that it talks about how it's a "visual album" and the music videos associated with it when the videos have nothing to do with the music quality.
I don't get pitchfork.
It's pretty good much better than her last one 7/10
Wow. Kudos to Bitchfork to giving a fair review.
> HOW DARE THEY DISS OUR QUEEN BITCH YAAS FUCKING WHITE WOMEN
Fuck off. Lemonade is going to age worse than milk. Not even close to her best album. I'd have given it a 8/10. Honestly the extra +0.5 was probably because the reviewer is a white woman (aka: Beyonce's biggest demographic besides the gays).
>>64359458
>p4k
why do you autists still care?
it's pretty much a kayne west fansite
the album was still shit tho
Would the album have benefited if the spoken word parts of the visual were left in?
>>64367989
Hold up is a great song though
>>64369024
>Lemonade is going to age worse than milk. Not even close to her best album
Literally all of her albums will age like shit, they are also forgettable

got rekt by /mu/tants
>>64371548
Kanye is an SJW. Justice is in all his cries.
>>64371753
I remember that. Thank you for being the first to say it.
>>64371604
8.5 is a 'B' which is average.
>>64369024
Why would you give an 8.0 to an album that you're critical of.
Insane.
>>64367612
Concerning someones music taste, in my opinion the most important attribute is open mindness.
This goes both to people into indie/alt/underground music and people who generally listen to more popular music.
>>64369818
Well, if that's the case!!!! I mean we all know how much music journalists really care about and love music, and definitely don't just write articles about social impact and fashion and other industry-driven drivel, so you must be a truly well listened and elightened individual, I mean, its not like just anybody could get an internship.
