Any time an album is acclaimed by a vocal section of the community an equally vocal section forms just to despise it for "being overrated".

If the backlash overpowers the initial acclaim, then suddenly the hype cycle reverses and the self-consciously edgy individuals form up to defend the album or band in question.

The dynamics of what "/mu/ likes" are based almost entirely on hype dynamics and social capital, virtually not at all on anything resembling rational critical evaluation of musical content.

You are a blind fool, a participant, or both if you don't notice this pattern constantly. It happened with GKMC and it will happen with TPAB

It means someone who goes against popular opinion for the sake of it, rather than because they actually don't like the music. However, this term can obviously only be used properly if you can read someones mind, otherwise it's meaningless

I think it's good to actually discuss the content of music beyond buzzwords, but stop pretend this only applies to people criticising an album.

The music isn't even great. A few songs (King Kunta, u, How Much a Dollar Cost, Wesley's Theory) are awesome, others aren't anything more than average. For Free is literally Kendrick rapping about his penis offset against a subpar jazz song, Institutionalized is Kendrick rapping against a Tribe song, These Walls is the same against some 90s R&B/Pop song, and other songs (Momma, i, Hood Politics) are just forgettable.
