Why is Grimes RYM scores so low? The way you guys hype her up

>>68592972
lurk more

pretty much 50% of /mu/ hates Grimes and also /mu/tants are a minority on RYM and 3.4* with 4k+ votes isn't that bad for a new release.

Most of /mu/ doesn't like her if this is anything to go by:

That's weird. On Metacritic she has huge scores, she basically loved by anyone from P4K to Spin Magazine and NME.

At very least these RYM plebs voted for Oblivion as the single of the year 2012: https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/single/2012

Realiti is also #7 on 2015: https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/single/2015

Kill V. Maim is #8 on 2016: https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/single/2016

Still good than nothing.

Grimes is that good that even the very rock oriented NME selected Art Angels as the album of the year 2015.

It isn't. It's a poll of people's opinions on her as a public figure - not what they think of her music (people have also admitted to repeat voting in it, so...).

Back to the OP's question - fwiw not everyone on here contributes to rym.

When you post on a music board do you like said artist, I'd think most people would refer to the music, not them as a person.

>>68592972
because she's shit
also 3.40 is pretty damn high

>>68593038
>/mu/tants are a minority on RYM
[citation needed]

wtf art angels passed visions?

thats some bullshit my man

>>68593963
Clearly you don't pay very close attention to the Grimes content on /mu.

>>68592972
Why is 3.3 bad? I would listen to a 3/5 album.

>>68592972
either you think RYM rates on a /10 scale or you think that a 5/5 score is "ok"
RYM loves grimes

>>68592972
rym has more advanced taste than /mu/, that's why.

Unless it's obscure jap shit or non american folk music, then it's pretty much automatically a high score no matter what it is.

NME hasn't been rock orientated for years, apart from Oasis. They jump onto any bandwagon. Nobody really takes them seriously, they stopped selling copies so they give it away for free now.

>3.40 for her worst album
