    I know that! But when I see people say they are not gonna listen to something because critics rate it low, makes me feel like they don't have an opinion lol

    I was just curious because I know you've been vocal about reviews not talking about the music enough, and I'm still trying to figure out what people wanna read if they don't wanna read ANYTHING about the context of the album and its place in history/culture.

    it's cute that you made your post history private so you can hide/delete posts you weird obsessive freak :wayne:

    btw next time could you please consolidate your shrieking bs to one post at a time? i don't need to get quoted and mentioned within thirty seconds of each other. thanks!

    You can simply use the search function and filter by user aka me

    Now PLEASE find all of these OBSESSIVE post over months and months that you say exist and I'll start looking for all those times you begged to see my d-ck and said 6ix9ine was talented

    This is true. I think sometimes reviews are about context etc too much. For sure, the context and background are essentials for a good review. But sometimes, after reading a review I'm like.. okay, but what did you think about the album??

    I do have an example actually. It's not an actual review of course but that thing @Swizz and @WPG did with Watch The Throne was something I really liked! They both gave their thoughts on every song, which was almost all about the music.

    Again it was totally different than an article but that kind of 'review' is what makes me more or less excited about listening to something. The actual write ups are mostly just to help me see or hear things I wouldn't have otherwise and look at it from different perspectives.

    you attacked me personally over a hip hop related discussion, as did WPG

    So clearly it’s something you get pissy about. Message board or no message board, i know you and WPG that this stuff very seriously. Hip hop is WPG’s passion.....so it’s something he would love even if his job didn’t have anything to do with hip hop

    No thats not what im saying at all. Like i said, its simple, just dont talk about the artists personal life more than the music. You can talk about it but when it's the large majority of your review then wtf.
