More and more I find myself confused with album reception

Pusha T and The weeknd just this year dropped some of their best work and reception among critics and fans seems shockingly lukewarm

Even fka twigs dropped her best body of work to date and yet it seems like nobody talks about it in best of conversations for the year so far

People are dumb

I thought Oxnard was gonna be received as a classic

Pusha getting love

Universal acclaim with 5 reviews so far and 89 from fans

Also thought clairos latest album was legit flawless and yet…

Have you considered that other people think it's not their best bodies of work and just are giving genuine opinions? Honestly asking because reading that you come off thinking its a fact. I'd suggest just ignoring the reception and keep enjoying them

A Written Testimony reception was baffling

Nah, Ventura was it though

ppl got the attention span of a goldfish nowadays

That sounded like s*** tbf

People just don’t care about music like they used to

That’s what I’m saying, the consensus opinion is surprising to me

Obv I don’t care what that is but I like to see good work appreciated if it’s there

I thought more people would go crazy over LUV vs The World 2 tape especially with Bean being a great song

Amazing album

And keep in mind reception could change over time. Just give it a while and people might come around. I have a feeling Dawn FM is going to be like Views, hated on release but over time became a classic

Ngl
I didn’t even listen to that
Should I

Seeing nothing but positive reviews and fan reactions to IAD

Dawn FM is Abel's most critically acclaimed album yet

Lowkey I kind of think this is true, funny cuz I thought covid would’ve caused the opposite

People hated Congratulations by MGMT when it came out and that's a certified classic, they were just way too ahead of their time with their Vaporwave-ass album cover

Yes, it's a fun tape and has the last bits of Uzi prime before dropping these latest mid singles and features

Dawn FM reception really confused me

And yet it’s a commercial flop in the states by his standards, nobody I know irl likes it or listened to it, and it seems like his fans online are always getting stuck into him for it not being up to par

Dawn FM really only clicked primarily with the core fan base. Weirdly enough, the people I know irl that didn’t f*** with After Hours are f***ing with Dawn FM more lmao. Very interesting.
