    Just a thread to prove critics aren't always right, so let's list some albums were the critics completely f----- up

    I'll start because I made the thread and so well I automatically have the first post and I'm not @ConspiracyGang

    808s & heartbreak

    Trashed by the critics when it first came out but finished by being considered as a classic and having a huge influence on rap

    Got a 70 on Metacritic when it's really one of the worst albums of all time

    The MOTM series was praised by fans but the critics thought it was meh. To me and a lot of people they are classics.

    Should be an 80 at least, with the first getting an 85.

    Yeezus was trash critics praising it because "you have to 'get' it to like it"

    TLOP is a 75 on metacritic and Yeezus is an 85. I'd switch that right around tbh.

    I just don't understand why people who don't like Yeezus can't come to grips with the fact that they have s--- taste. Like it's cool you don't like it, but it's not bad and you're actually missing out

    I just don't understand why people who like something can't come to grips with the fact that other people simply have different taste and accept it instead of constantly posting pretentious bs about their subjective opinion being superior to others. Like it's cool if you don't like their opinion because it's not the same as yours, but chill the f--- out insulting people over it.
