🔥 lol I for one find it so refreshing to see someone also just way tired of Kendrick's arc throughout the Drake beef. album sounds cool but I also feel just so far removed from "damn Kendrick is rly changing the game"... he just is the game now. or the party as you said. you did your job well

How old is the man? Looks like he’s pushing 30. At that age he’s still in the amateur phase for reviews. You need a solid 15+ years of experience to really be credible and this guy can’t even claim five lol.

”Is that watching the party die? My man, the party might be at your crib now.” Lmao

Look man I'm annoyed about the weight the p4k review will carry for people too, but I don't think your arguments here are making sense, there's no way you'd take issue with a positive reviewer being so young

For the record, I think GNX is his best release since UU and I really dislike Alphonse's takes and writing style, but he's a legitimate critic who has a continual presence on Pitchfork because of his focus on the underground scene, there's no stopping the count here

atp pitchfork are only writing reviews like this to stay relevant

No it's a random guy who changed his display name and to top it all off he's using ChatGPT

youre right

ive been caught conversating with robots on the ktt 2 forums again

Just because you can string along coherent, well written sentences doesn’t mean you “get the music”

It’s funny he “gets” xaviersobased. They gave it a 8.2 BNM
pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/xaviersobased-keep-it-going-xav

“Borderline spiritual experience” Jesus Christ

If underground is his strength then maybe he should stick to that. Let someone else handle mainstream albums.

A 6.6 rating is ridiculous just like giving GNX a 9.5 would be which also wouldn’t make sense. An 8.5 would be a more realistic score not 6.6.

I also think the reviewer shouldn’t have mentioned the rap battle between Drake and Kendrick that happened over the summer at all. Keep it about the album smh.

Word? What did he go by b4? KTT full of trolls smh

Kinda hate the way these writers review albums. It’s like they stuff the review full of weird words you barely ever heard before to sound scholarly and then throw in a little bro slang to sound down to earth.

It's the kinda thing P4K used to do with their Lil B reviews. The difference is what Lil B was doing was actually original. Nobody else was in his lane and because of that he ended up creating a lot of these new artists. Problem is...they're just ass, mostly because they just playing copycat and have no talent of their own.

him using “pitchforks” in the post shoulda been a giveaway that pitchfork was in the ChatGPT prompt lirl

It’s like they got lost in the sauce of trying to be ahead of the curve and different

I do enjoy looking through their reviews for any random albums to discover. I’ll admit sometimes I get put on

Exactly what it is

As much as I enjoy RXK Nephew they do it in their reviews for him as well and it just screams disingenuous.

Yeah they go overboard with it with those types of artists

And don’t even know the source of why they like making the music they like making

funny u mention nephew since alphonse was criticizing the misogyny in the beef but then was plugging nephew like crazy, which is hilarious since that man has a lot of misogynistic bars lmao

Thing is that so far listening personally it is a step down from his previous (but I still need to give it a lot more listens and btw i loved mr morale )

But i know damn well that hater Alphonso would be giving it a low ass score even if it was a Damn or TPAB...

And It's definitely a lot higher than a 6 what the hell that punk on

What is this site?

Guy gives the most obscure Michigan rap albums/songs 8+ scores and BNM meanwhile did nothing but complain about all the Drake/kendrick beef songs, coulda seen this a mile away
