If someone rates the album a 0 and another rates it a 5, metadistortic would then give the album a score of 50( or whatever weighed average score near to 50).
That is a lie.
No reviewer in the above case actually thought the album was a half and half experience. One reviewer thought the album was completely shit and the other a compete masterpiece.
And if 60 is American Life’s score, then isn’t that what MX should aim for? Or 68 even since that’s my other favorite album Rebel Heart? And shouldn’t MX steer clear of the 90s score range?Cause I don’t want it sounding anything like Beyoncé.
And NME, f u. for RH and fuck off MX.
Reading through the 4 star reviews I felt I was being jabbed with pins. And I asked myself why am I reading these? These are not reviews, they are hate crime.
As one very astute observer remarked earlier Madonna is a rock star who happens to sing pop. And these men don’t get her. So, that’s that.

Imagine IF she gave a GREAT performance that hundreds of thousands of people can't stop raving about for two weeks instead. Despite being a polarizing figure, Madonna IS totally capable of giving a well-received live performance.
i don't think she's living for the applause.

I mentioned this earlier on in the thread as I wondered if LAP had similar effects accidentally applied that was for Future. The way her vocals warbled it sounded more like an effect on her voice. At this point, I guess it doesn't matter because most of the world has already made up her mind she just sang horribly. All the criticism that her career has ended over this was so overblown. Most people don't care and have moved on. Anyone who hasn't is just a huge hater.
the youtube guy also said that she could have been sick.

Worried about what? Her aging voice which needs vocoder? Or the narrative that "she doesnt take care of her voice anymore"
i think the ' worried about madonna' part is about her taking massive risks with the possible outcome of seeming too weird and hence not understood. but i admire her for that.
-
this is how he reviewed the album.
weird,
taking risks,
admirably bizarre,
for fans of her loca edge,
mysterious new accent in some, and plays down the accent and gets lost in emotion in another track
a vocodor singing the nut cracker,
you have to endure her pondering political oppression before reaching her strongest songs,
can trigger that 'worried about madonna' feeling,
proud that she is still being willing to act up like this,
never lets us down in a very different way,
time will tell if mx will have staying power,
if you love madonna for her shamelessness - bitch she's loca.
I LOVE MADAME X BECAUSE OF ALL THE ABOVE REASONS.

That's disappointing to you? What I find disheartening is the episodical reminder that we humans tend to sometimes suggest / dictate how other humans should think / speak.
+ Mirwais is awesome.
some people need to be guided . and mirwais / madonna produced tracks are awesome.
-
but i care less how they rate her albums. i read the reviews to get a glimpse of what she has in store for me. and whenever i read a negative reaction to her songs i automatically decide i'd like it. that is how my brain is wired, fortunately for me.
-
i think he is proud that the album is bizarrely weird. but maybe he rated it a 3/5 cause he needed time to digest it.
-
it is disappointing that some members here focus too much on marketing strategies, promotions and so forth. and also this over enthusiasm for mirwais is kind of insulting to her in a way. the four tracks we got till now are all wonderful. why not be content with that. sometimes i just wish she decides to cancel releasing the rest of the album. some of you should go back and re-listen to rebel heart. that album has been criminally overlooked and unfairly battered. and mainly madonna is also just human. she is not a machine. how about loving her , supporting her and caring for her family and her health. and things like that. maybe consider such things when you concoct another marketing scheme.

Why bother drafting in Swae if the song isn't going to get any kind of promo push.
because she loved his voice. and don't you think they made a beautiful song together.

Being a fan does not mean blindly subscribing to everything an artist does. That’s called being a mindless shill. Deal with it.
what's wrong with blindly and mindlessly loving someone, as long as that someone is worth it.

She put on a great show, despite problems in the vocal performance for whatever reason ( I don't care) and delivered a message in a powerful and artistic way
i agree. and the criticisms are just unfair. her editing the show was a bold and an aggressive and necessary move. she was just hitting back, kind of disarming them. and from what i know it's always better to confront a bully. and she changed the narrative. now she's -though not completely -in control of the direction of the discussion. some claim she is dishonest and manipulative for polishing the video. but i think that is better than being ridiculed for no apparent reason. and her fans should just be more protective of her and more supportive. i don't think some appreciated the guts it took to go to Israel and basically warn those in power to learn from the past or else. and if she didn't hit the right keys so what? that shouldn't and didn't jeopardize the purpose. it was a message heavy performance with haunting visuals. and her stage presence was awe inspiring. some fans wanted her to promote the album and others wanted her to boycott the contest. she upset them both. i swear some fans treat her like she is just a commodity for sale. they have no artistic inclinations.

I love it.

The dislikes are growing.. maybe she should just delete the video later or remove the votes and comments, idk.. but it’s unfortunate
edit: never mind I can't count. I thought only 25% liked it but more than half still did. not as bad as it could be, tbh.
I just love how she turned things around. Instead of being a subject for their ridicule, she decided to flip the situation and be the manipulative bitch instead.

Medellin is brilliant. But FUTURE is my fave right now. I ALSO LOVE LOVE I RISE. and let's not forget Crave, it's so cool. there THAT'S my VOTE .

With Medellin, I thought at least she was turning into a cool older chick. With crave, it appears she has CGI'd herself into looking 25 again.
and then i discovered it couldn't get worse. you were building my coffin. you were driving my hearse.

This performance (watching the original) gets better with every view.
I feel the same.
-
And the criticism of this performance being career ending cracks me up.
-
She is so audacious. So fearless. And that is why they criticize her. The interlude is simply to die for.

I feel like I've watched something else....I actually LOVED it and thought I'd be reading more praise tbh
Like a Prayer felt more like an "intro" before the reveal and my only complaint would be Quavo's lack of presence, those few seconds of him doing his part felt like an eternity.
Madonna was great, the spoken part, the visuals, the moves, the message, the BALLS, it gave me goosebumps.
I'm also having difficulty believing how STUNNING she looks and the outfit was amazing
YES, AND YES AND YES TO THAT.
