/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

>MBDTF
>10.0
>This album
>not a 10.0

fuck pitchfork yes I mad

>not a 10.0
*yawn*
Why could MBDTF get a 10.0 and not this?
Is Channel Orange (9.5) really better than this?
Kendrick Lamar's last year album is apparently better too (9.5)
Big Boi's 2010 album got a 9.2

Why are Pitchfork harder on indie than they are one hip hop, contemporary R&B and other predominantly mainstream artists?

I think the last indie artist to get a 9.2 was LCD Soundystem's 2010 album (which wasn't even THAT good)

Was anyone here when Pitchfork gave MBDTF the 10.0? What was /mu/'s response?

>tfw /mu/ blindly follows pitchfork

>tfw mu only likes ITAOTS so much because pitchfork gave it a 10

>tfw mu only likes MBDTF because pitchfork gave it a 10

>tfw mu only hates childish gambino because pitchfork gave him a 0

>tfw they only like RAM because pitchfork gave it BNM

>tfw they like radiohead just because everyone else on mu likes it, despite radiohead being bland, generic, mediocre, uncreative, boring, shit.

>tfw /mu/ hates things simply because of how popular they are and what date they were released

>tfw most of /mu/ doesn't even make their own music

>tfw most of /mu/ doesnt even smoke crack

People who were on on /mu/ when MBDTF got a 10 on Pitchfork, what was it like? How many threads were made?

>yfw the vast majority of /mu/ was born after 1990
>the majority of /mu/ was born around 1994
>the majority started browsing /mu/ after "hipster" became a popular term and after the creation of the /mu/essential chart

Example: Just look at this thread
>>39778847

Are you guys still up celebrating the first 10 from Pitchfork since MBDTF?

itt: prove you are a patrician

i knew kanye west was good before pitchfork gave mbdtf a 10

I'm a newfag, and I wanted to know what /mu/'s reaction to MBDTF getting a 10 from Pitchfork was back in 2010.

Daily reminder that 99% of /mu were still listening to Blink 182 when College Dropout came out and only started liking Kanye when Le Pitchfork gave MBDTF a 10. Fucking hipster scum

Will Kanye ever dethrone Radiohead as the top p4k darling?

Not counting side projects, reissues, live records or EPs:

Radiohead

>back to back 10's
>followed by a 9.0 and back to back 9.3s, and unprecedented streak of "holy shit" level ratings
>lowest rating for a new album is 7.9
>has number 1 album of 2000-2004 (Kid A) as rated by Pitchfork staff
>has number 1 album of the 2000s (Kid A) as rated by Pitchfork staff
>Top 2 spots on the 1996-2011 reader's poll (OK Computer and Kid A) as well as #6 (In Rainbows)

Kanye

>10 and a 9.5 back to back
>also has a 9.5 for his second album and a string of 8 range
>lowest rating for a new album is 7.6
>Has 1 album in 1996-2011 reader's poll (MBDTF) at #9

Sure Radiohead outweighs Kanye now by quite a bit but they have a bit of time on their side. I think Radiohead is on the down slope and Kanye is moving up, all we need is another top 10 decade list and a solid 10 and a 9 range score and I think he is a contender to be the top p4k darling of all time.

The only other entity that comes close I think is Animal Collective but they blew it hard core with that burrito album.

I've lost count of how many dogshit albums Pitchfork gave a 10 (MBDTF is a good example).

But they gave Pet Sounds only a 9.4?

That's fucking disgusting. Y'all need to kill yourselves for reading this shit.

So I think everyone here can agree that Pitchfork's album best of the decade list thing is totally shit

so if you had to make a top 10 of the best albums of the decade so far, which would you pick?

>inb4 1. MBDTF/GKMC/TMS
>dis gon b gud

Here's why Kanye west sucks

>he's an asshole
>he has no talent
>you only like him because pitchfork gave mbdtf a 10

it's like this board is full of goddamn illiterate children i swear to god. you guys have destroyed any and all critical credibility when it comes to music by praising this fucking clown.

how does pitchfork rate your 3x3?

because the internet : 5.8
in search of : 6.0
tyranny : 4.9
voodoo : 10
there will be blood : 7.8
mbdtf : 10
run the jewels : 9

average : 7.6

>Madonna is going to make the 2015 AOTY

just think about it, pitchfork are bound to give it a 9 or 10 because it has SOPHIE on it and also they like to be smug about enjoying mainstream music

and fantano will give it a shit review because it has SOPHIE on it and he doesnt inflate his ratings for mainstream music

so its literally what happened to MBDTF
