the album had a score of 82 on metacritic until this review which is by far the most negative the album has had.
Sputnik music gave it the lowest 72 until pitchfork 49.
Dude has been super hating on Cudi for a while

Breaking down the needle drops in Pete Davidson’s The King of Staten Island
Kid Cudi: “Just What I Am”
Things white kids from New York’s five boroughs refuse to let go: the 2009 Yankees, Sopranos quotes, and Kid Cudi. So, of course, The King of Staten Island opens with Pete Davidson’s quasi-autobiographical character spiraling while Cudi’s “Just What I Am” blares from his car radio. It’s time to move on.
Kid Cudi: “Pursuit of Happiness”
The King of Staten Island not only begins with a Kid Cudi song, but ends with one, too. This time it’s to indicate that Pete has found some happiness and maturity. But let’s be real, Pete, it’s been more than a decade since Man on the Moon, let it go!
dude is a f***ing cringeball
they suck kevin parker's ass as a company for 10 years now and haven't commented on "dive".
no comments on hottest tracks such as lord i know, dive, heaven on earth not even pale moonlight. that's just being bias. no one expects pitchfork to drop track by track review but bro u just mentioning songs to s*** on it.
just f***ing send this f***ery to dennis so cudi would say something about it.
i swear to god when fantano gave sb2h a 0 i was like okay he outta line sometimes with the way he comments but dude was actually explaining s*** track by track or we would understand da hell he was giving that hollow for.
F*** PITCHFORK AND ANYBODY THAT LOVES EM
It’s funny how hating creative or lyrical rap and praising generic mainstream s*** has become what the new modern day “pretentious” hip hop fan is.
they coming for him
Mans is throwing akademiks level tantrums over cudi
they always hated cudi
pitchfork died when it sold to conde nast
u know they had WAP as number 1 song of the year
WAP is soty tho
Love that i knew who this was before i even opened the review lmfao. F***ing alphonse pierre
This Pierre shouldn’t come out here
pierre you wanna stay in there with no internet connection please
WAP is soty tho
WAP is one of the most overrated mainstream hits in the last 10 years
there are almost zero redeeming qualities of that song.
Idk how exactly they decide the scores over at p4k but alphonse just doesn't like cudi. In a deleted tweet he said some s*** like, "fuck it's that time again where we have to listen to people talk about how cudi changed their life"
If he obviously hates Cudi why would they let him review it?
Entertainment
Article was pretty spot on
First paragraph literally sums up this entire threads reaction tbh
