I'm kind of shocked at his backlash. Anyone else? I remember people were saying he was going to be fine but he's really getting shit left and right LOL! He should just stay home.

Goodbye, Ike Brown!

It's mixed . I seen good reviews on his album and his diehards and people on twitter brought it we won't know for sure till next week. I used to love me some chris brown too

Also do we consider AllMusic.com anything relevant, Reviews now are written by bloggers who cant get journalism gigs. I mean have you read reviews in EW magazine before?? AllMusic in one post gave Vanessa Hudgens four stars and then right after that gave John Mellencamp 2 stars?? Theres only one place Vanessa should get four stars.


And you know what a popular response would be to that arugment from many critics? They'd say, "This stuff is only rated relative to the artist".

Personally I think it's lazy bullshit. But I've heard this arugument dozens of times over the years.

I mean is a 4-star Britney Spears album equivalent to a 1 and half star Bob Dylan. I mean I don't have a nifty chart to tell me how each person values this shit. wink


Agreed that is always the argument i have heard too. the justification for giving Vanessa Hudgens four stars was that she was "creating" wonderful pop/dance songs with edge, and the justification for Mellencamps two stars was that "it wasnt new ground for him" so my thing is that if you gave him 4-5 stars back in the day when the ground was "new" then he is basically giving it right back to you.
