Except for the fact that they were upping Kanye West and hip-hop as far back as 2003.

Hello, Dave.

Using white as an insult instantly proves you're a gigantic shithead

Pitchfork was always shitty. They never fucking review the albums and instead focus on the backstory. This is literally the reason MBDTF got a 10 btw.

Nowadays if you want good reviews it's mostly small blogs (Scaruffi being an example) and Youtube channels (even Fantano is better than Pitchfork).

over the years I've occasionally used them for general music news. but the fact that people act like were some holy grail is a lil sad

>>73236395
Yeah exactly
Plus they have pretty obvious biases which makes me wonder what the point of some of their reviews are
For example, giving Ed sheeran a 2 or something. Literally none of their audience gives a shit about Ed sheeran and noone who actually does listen to Ed sheeran will give a shit about pitchfork.

They reviewed garbage milquetoast indie and then got bought out and only covered pop music and garbage mumble rap.

They've always creamed themselves over bland music and written navel gazing dissertations attempting to intellectualize it.

If you want salient reviews read The Quietus, because the people there can actually write their way out of a paper bag when they're not flipping burgers between freelancing for $2000 checks that come late from their slavemasters.
