It was the important reviewers though
but clearly it's harder to get a good score with less reviews because one bad one can knock the score back down easily

[Real]

Kanye, Kendrick & Chance all had 20-35 reviewers.

Only 7 critics even bothered to review Usher's mess.  Of course his score is high.  LOL.

[RAY7]

They all did
if no one thought so none of them would have good scores

Ray, that's the point!

Meaning, if his 8th review is awful, the score could really be affected.  Hence, why it's more impressive to have a high score with over 20 reviews.  Not 7.

no you have it backwards, how did you skip from 8 to 20?
If the 8th review is bad then you can still have 12 more good ones to cover it up with 20
if you have 7 then one bad review has a bigger impact

[Real]

Ray's right about the math, but 7 reviews still ain't impressive

[RAY7]

Who cares about the number of reviews? There's not even that many really reputable sources most of the 20+ reviews is fluff
7 reviews from ppl like Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, Pitchfork etc>>>

Yeah 7 ain't enough

But that's why it matters.  Based on the Metacritic scorecard, Pitchfork gave the album a 66%.  Entertainment Weekly gave it a 67%.

These "fluff" critics (which they're not) you're talking about.... if they were all included and say he had 5-8 more 60% reviews, his score would be much lower.  Which is why you can't compare it to albums with 30 reviews.

It's like showing someone a report card that's 4.0, but you only had 3 classes versus someone with a 3.8 who took 15 classes.
