>Oh wow an album about someone's death is released right before they die, never seen that before! For that alone it gets 3 points higher than it should receive!
Wouldve literally been a 6/10 had he not died
Its one of his best ever, deserves an 8 or 9
>>61936856
No, it wouldn't. It was already widely praised before Bowie died.

>I've never seen that before!
You said that sarcastically who else has recorded an album whilst dying and it's sounded great
>>61936856
Someone's jealous his shitty little album on bandcamp isn't doing so good!
>>61936856
mmm okay OP I don't know why you're so mad about it

your mom was a 6/10 last night
...
...
bitch
>>61936899
this is a point that people who only listen to /mu/core and p4k-approved music make
>>61936856
Are you joking, it was receiving critical acclaim before he even died.
>>61936856
It's a 9 without his death you fucking pleb

wow reddit is mad today
Taking nostalgia to a whole nother level.
>>61936926
If she had died whilst you were fucking her, she'd have became a 9/10
The album wouldn't have been made had he not died.
>>61936960
David is Queen of /mu/. Grimes is princess.
>>61936856
It's because the album is about his death. It's a meta mindfuck never achieved before and his death is equal to the music in terms of importance for this piece of art.
This album is LITERALLY an occult ritual.
Read this to get it completely and find out more about bowie as an occultist:

GET OUT OF MY HEAD
>>61936856
>Bowie talked about Death Grips and Kendrick being an inspiration to the album
The real reason it got a 9
Would've gotten a 10/10 if he mentioned he also listened to Swans in the studio while recording
>>61936990
david is reddit
grimeth is tumblr
sorry to burst your bubble
>>61937395
It's alright you didn't do any harm or burst any bubbles as you're talking total and utter bollocks.
>>61936895
... in which he just says "yeah I rated highly because he died" as if that's not weird
i'm so sick of this pointless fucking argument i'm not even going to take sides
>>61936958
Donuts is a much better album sonically than Blackstar, and Bowie would agree. This is a lyrical album. Sonically, it has little going on outside of the first track. Fantano is obviously rating this on a total level, which encompasses lyrics and sound.
>>61936856
Wouldve literally not existed had he not been going to die in the first place
>>61936969
lol
>>61936856
>I care so much about fantano's opinion, I must remake a thread that's been posted every day since the review was posted
I'm pretty sure it's just Fantano posting this himself to be hoenst
>>61937395
what do you mean by "reddit" and "tumblr"?
fyi those aren't adjectives
Imo and this is probably a controversial opinion, I think blackstar is his best and most important work behind/on par with low/station to station
>>61936928
this is an ad hominem
