Something weird is going on because they removed a bunch of recent reviews. there was a schoolboy q review this week but its gone now. Some others too - very odd.

yeah there's a big gap in the bnm and 8.0 review sections - between march 2024 and october 2023

if you google the schoolboy q review, you can find it https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/schoolboy-q-blue-lips/
but within the site itself you can't find it.

I thought I was going crazy today when they had the news feature on the Dreamville lineup announcement and there was no Nicki link, nor did any of her reviews show up when I searched her on the site. I was starting to think I was crazy like surely Pitchfork has reviewed Nicki albums and then I finally found one of her most recent album on its wiki page.

it's weird that this had zero mentions of any list that pitchfork ever did. the year end lists couldn't drive attention week to week like best new music could, but they felt like an important part of building and maintaining a pitchfork editorial voice.

this one is gigantic and ancient so a sequel thread was made at some point but people keep using this old one anyway

thread names are too similar
― the defenestration of prog (voodoo chili), Friday, 22 March 2024 12:42 (two months ago) link
i feel like having to ask demonstrates the reason. in the original thread there was a discussion about it being too big and being impossible to go back to if you're after anything but the latest few messages. but that message is buried forever because the thread is too big and is impossible to go back to if you're after anything but the latest few messages.

https://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/future-metro-boomin-like-that-kendrick-lamar/As exciting as it is to finally have a full-length from the duo, “Like That” doesn’t show either at the peak of their powers. In fact, it’s boilerplate by their standards, Future boasting about nameless one-off flings and endless supplies of drugs over a so-so Metro beat that splits the difference between modern Atlanta and vintage California and Memphis.the beat is literally "Everlasting Bass" by Rodney O and Joe Cooley

I haven’t listened to the song but rap nerd internet seems to be pointing out that the beat is sampling Three 6 Mafia sampling Rodney O

I dont buy the three 6 thing. idk maybe he was inspired by how they flipped it. but metro flipped rodney o and joe cooley on the 21 savage album too hes not like ignorant of them

I just saw an article where Rodney O said Metro approached him about it

The cut up vocal sample is from Three 6's 'Ridin Spinners', no? Not sure where it was from before that.
