Lemonade [Columbia, 2016]So we know this would-be soundtrack functions musically as an art-soul concept album, right? Groove, flow, funk, that stuff? Present, sure, but only as part of ye olde aesthetic whole, and not the fundamental part. Nor, for that matter, are songs the fundamental part, because they're all also dramas, performances, LP-á-clef puzzle pieces. In fact, with the artist injecting a thought-through quantum of pained, proud, gritty, airy, furious, nostalgic, or conciliatory "feeling" into each line, the songwriting per se can seem like a stitched-together afterthought. So it's to Beyoncé's credit that only in the pivotal big ballad, which really is called "Sandcastles," plus maybe the loving midtempo de facto finale "All Night," does all this overstatement become too much for a Billie Holiday fan like me. Less to her credit is that said fan spent a solid week reaching this conclusion. He doesn't deny it was worth it. But Beyoncé itself he got quicker and will always prefer. A-
>cuckgau is a Beyonce stanI didn't know this before, but this makes so much sense. these nerdy white guys always have jungle fever, just look at Roger ebert
>>128298655Anything higher than a C was too generous.
>>128298655Why is this hack still alive?
it's the ultimate astroturfed Border's -core Obama era faux-hipster slop album
>>128298766>hese nerdy white guys always have jungle feverfalsehe gave bad grades to other black artists. >>128299212this, shit record like beyonce>>128299200nobody drone him, but he's writting since 69 and its not too obvious at writing
>>128298766They feel like they’re doing activism by praising and over intellectualizing black music. Only a racist would miss the deep meaning in the music of Yung Drive-By
>>128299212>he gave bad grades to other black artistsMostly the ones who weren't R&B enough for his taste, if you were Sarah Vaughn or one of those types who did Night At The Metropolitan kind of material you got on his enemies list.
>>128301616>Mostly the ones who weren't R&B enough for his tastenot true
It's gonna be a glorious day when this faggot dies
>>128303091he was right about Rush though

128303411>Cuckgau defenderi'm not even defending, i'm literally saying that no one drone him.
>>128305477We’re reaching levels of ESL that shouldn’t be possible.
>>128299200>>128303091Why does he make you so butthurt?
>>128306533some of mu are retards that hate him for his politics. they make a strawmen and start sperging of him. its funny cause they're the same that are constantly fantanoposting
>>128298655Beyonce is total shit white woman music I guess every rating he ever gave is on a curve now if this is A-
>>128306605>some of mu are retardsYes. Like yourself, Cuckgau defender.

>>128308228implying is only one person
>>128303091Which one of your favorite albums did he pan?
>>128309109Anyone who loves the English language hates this asshole
>>128310710You're not beating the brownoid allegations, Vickram.
>>128310948This is your only argument ever. Anyone who dislikes Cuckgau is Indian? You're in desperate need of new material. Let me know when you get some.
>>128311086>Anyone who dislikes Cuckgau is Indian?Not necessarily, but it's totally ESL to claim that he can't write. As for new material... anyone who types "Cuckgau" obsessively for years isn't qualified to speak on that matter.
>>128314183Lol this
>>128314183He can't write. It's incoherent smugness. I get it resonates with you because you're a retarded smug bastard but that doesn't change anything. It's psychobabble. Made up conversations he has in his head with Aretha Franklin in a fucking Waffle House before he gives it a C- or something absurd without elaborating. No clue where you're getting this "years" shit but you do know everyone here isn't one person coming after your beloved Bob, right?
>>128315478not him but in music criticism is pointless to rant about views/writing style, i don't know what you're babbling about. if you prefer other references its fine; in fact, unless you have reading comprehension, i don't understand when people say is unreadable. i mean, if you want an obvious writing you can watch/read other names but is fine for me. no need to cry like a woman
>>128316944Music criticism is pointless in general, my dawg. Crying about someone not liking Bob's bullshit isn't where it's at either so what now?
>>128316994>Music criticism is pointless in general, my dawg.Midwit take.
It's Like You Never Left [Columbia, 1973]Funny you should put it that way, Dave, because for me it was like I was never here in the first place. C-
