Music website Pitchfork, which dominated the discourse around the turn of the century, is no more.
Last week, Conde Naste, which owned the site, laid off most of the staff and folded what remained into GQ, another of their properties.
Right before the announcement, Pitchfork gave Kid Cudi's new album INSANO a 4.6 out of 10.
When Cudi was asked about the bad review, he took it in stride.
“Hahah I loveeee it. When I die they’ll still have to deal [with] my awesome. I’m not goin anywhere. The music is FOREVER. The arena tours will still sell out. And I will always know that I came in the game and infected it [with] that s###," he Tweeted. "Based on their ratings of my albums, I should’ve lost my career years ago. Their opinion never holds any weight. I encourage y’all not to read reviews. It’s a waste of time. Listen for [yourself]. Same [with] movies. I never care about the rating, if it has some my favorite actors in it and I like the plot, I’m watching."
What did you think of INSANO?
