[Pitchfork (s)hit-job review]

my email to Pitchfork:

Dear Pitchfork,

My name is Rob Jacobs, and I live and work in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. I consider myself to be a reasonable person, but for some reason the review of Madonna's Madame X album by Rich Juzwiak really makes me wonder what the objective in this move was exactly. 

 

Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion and had he not liked the album or music that would have been fine, no water under the bridge. However, when you as Pitchfork ask a well known Madonna hater (who has been banned from countless websites and forums for his continued Madonna trolling) to write a review about her latest offering, how do you expect to get an even somewhat objective take on said album. A quick google search combining his name with Madonna offers a long list of Madonna hate pieces all over several social media platforms such as twitter, instagram, and previous "reviews" of her work. 

 

The review is overflowing with what seems like a personal vendetta the writer has against Madonna herself, discussing various topics like her age, cultural appropriation, his undying love for Mariah Carey (whom he manages to mention in practically everything he writes) and various other things that obviously irk him, but he rarely discusses the music itself.

 

I'm VERY curious to know what you make of this review and how you think this affects your credibility as a publication when having albums reviewed by self professed haters of the respective artists!?

 

Kind regards, Rob

This is very well written. Great job. I hope others will join in and send them more mails because the more, the better. One or two angry fans wont make a difference. Most important is to show he is biased.

OMFG!!!  The video looks epic!!  WOW!

I am pleasantly surprised that Hard Candy is liked by so many. For me HC is like KFC and the Spice Girls... Total guilty pleasure.

[Good reviews on Amazon - Let's boost them!]

The US rating for standard is terrible. Everyone pls give 5 starts to BOTH standard and deluxe on both co.uk and amazon. com. GP or casual fans wont buy a 2.5 star album by madonna. Please everyone. These amazon ratings are kind of worrying.

[Madonna @ Graham Norton show (June 14th)]

Why are people bitching about that interview, she was being Madonna and she wasn't rude and she owned the room like the queen she is. The ones complaining, I have to ask, have you ever seen a Madonna interview before, this is how she is and her sense of humor. I do think she has some anxiety issues though but that is not a weakness but rather makes her more vulnerable. I picked up on some anxiety issues, also in other recent events, her posture, the way she responds, slight hyperventilating, and no it is not just the tight clothing.  She may even have mild form of depression but she was not rude. It is unfair to give a clinical diagnosis over a few interviews. That woman is a warrior. I highly enjoyed the interview.

Were is Kim? Would love a track by track review from him.

["Back That Up to the Beat" Thread]

It is severly overproduced. Demo was much better.

We need a couple more 4/5, 80% reviews for her metacritic to bounce back up. Anything over a 75/100 i'd be happy with at this point

We are lucky if she reaches 75 again

[“Bitch I’m Loca” thread]

This song is acually catchy and fun. Love it. Not a filler at all.

[“Killers Who Are Partying” thread]

This is one of the bestvsongs, why in the world the critics didn't like it? It is so good.

[“God Control” thread - video coming #soon]

GC sounds like Army of Lovers.

[Madame X - - UK Chart/General Promo Discussion]

Did radio 2 A or B list Dark Ballet? Still not sure if it counts as a single.
