    Pitchfork is basically the music industry equivalent of VICE at this point.

    I think the album is a 5, but a 5 for me doesnt mean its bad. A 5 is like half good half s---, a 6 is a fair project, 7 is just good, 8 is great, 9 is basically a classic, and a 10 is a once a decade kinda ting.

    That being said, pitchfork is very embarrassing. If you take them seriously get your hormone levels checked, you may have an imbalance.

    Reviews are done by a single writer for a publication, not an editorial board. If it’s the same reviewer I see your point.

    I think the album being such a surprise & better than Revival (not hard) has caused excited Eminem stans to really over rate the album.

    Fall is very good & Stepping Stone is good. Lucky You decent,Not Alike ok, Ringer & Greatest average. Rest is trash.

    it’s a rich and famous and not coincidentally white, straight man in 2018, asserting that he’s about to “r--- the alphabet.”

    And this type of s--- is exactly why Trump will win again in 2020.(Assuming he hasn't been impeached)

    The people who always cry about how you "shouldn't take reviews seriously" are the same ones who read them and cry about it every time p4k doesn't give an album they like a good review.

    "When Eminem complains in one breath about how he wasn’t duly rewarded for an anti-Trump freestyle he did last year, and in the next takes the Trump-like step of labeling the media as his enemy"

    ^yeah this is one thing that really bothered me

    Mouth full of flesh and yes I mean eating a penis

    Blaming Trump on SJWs is such a tired argument. Stop doing the bidding of conservatives.

    it's very, very unfair to drop the "Make Rap Great Again" line in there as if rappers haven't always been cranks about those younger than them. em dissing pump is embarrassing for a number of reasons but it doesn't align him with trump.

    Idk, I think his attack on the media is very Trumpian. The author definitely makes more points than that.

    i'm not reducing the whole review to that and i'm not saying that the way he's lashing out at critics doesn't remind me of trump, but i think specifically dropping that phrase to talk about em's gripes with younger rappers is a cheap shot. you could draw the other trump parallels without it. it's not fair to him.

    I hate reviews because they're used and seen as facts, not an opinion piece.

    The only way I'm taking your review seriously is if you've studied music.
