relapsed bisexuali was baited by the tweet as well its f***ing annoying u can't read pitchfork reviews anymore to at least see for yourself either
I think the reviews are still accessible, just not the score? I could be wrong though.
you can fairly easily get around the paywall as well, but might not be worth the trouble

4 reviews with score a month
Paywall activates after that
May 131996 BRLThey're the biggest review platform in the Internet space (ain't nobody discussing a Rolling Stone score like that) so a bit of tall poppy syndrome
But the whole purpose of P4K as a listener is to find new albums, help you sort through upcoming listens & to help you navigate old albums, one of the best received new acts by KTT2 only got awareness from most people on here because P4K gave him a Best New Music review
I don't check it anymore due to the subscription (I must be broke) although I used to check it most mornings & it always helped me find new stuff
They do get things 'wrong' too but despite that & the every trap album gets a 7+ thing because we are overcompensating they are usuallu one of the few publications who actually give brave scores, the majority of review scores play it so safe & overrate things these days, Metacritic has been useless since ~2017
1.8: high scores for musicians they don't like
2.4: Alphonse not writing favourable stuff for artists they like
3.7: It became the cool thing to do VALID
4.2: Drake stans mad that they haven't give Lazy era Drake good reviews (meanwhile they've given him 6 8+ reviews before)
5.9: Posters pretending to be black trying to call something white to hide from their own whiteness
6.7: they have been fairly out of touch with certain areas of rap & overcompensate at times VALID
7.4: the lazy overcorrection from their past near-Indie Rockism to the era where most average trap albums were just getting a 7+ just because VALID
8.7: they mad they couldn't go to Chicago for the superb lineups the festival had
9.3: the shift in style/taste post their Conde Nast acquisition VALID
10: folks still mad that Fiona Apple got a 10Bonus: 0.0: folks don't like how they've reviewed Kanye post 2016 (smh, they overrated TLOP, Mfers should be happ
0.1: They usually seem to give artists lower scores if they've dissed P4K before VALIDHalf of these apply to Fantano too, although I never really watched his stuff (last review I saw was a Gunna review KTT2 said was worth watching ~5 years ago)
def find it so hypocritical how ppl take every opportunity to s*** on P4k yet when they do give out a big BNM to an underground act suddenly everyone is like "huh interesting this is great"
not even just talking about ktt tbh
everyone jumping on the los thuthanaka hype train after them getting a 9 being one recent example of many
- May 13
especially w Mano figuring out for them how to use social media their influence is kind of huge again tbh and they still have the ability to put ppl on the map.
always respected that they make so much space for fairly niche or weird experimental ambient etc stuff and while writer friends of mine have mixed feelings about how they treat freelancers it is still kinda where you would wanna land those types of reviews ideally

Chris Brown only knows about slaps when it comes to women and not his music, unfortunately.

May 13at risk of cooning, fine review that would’ve been a lot better with a single word added at the end “well that’s just how they treat black men in this country” you can’t do an entire piece about his legacy and the pretending to ignore things without that. it’s the single thing that’s gotten Kelly, Jackson, and Brown grace in their community. Probably too hot for a Pitchfork review though
