MusicCritics (472 KP) rated In the Lonely Hour by Sam Smith in Music
Jun 28, 2017
Still, most of In the Lonely Hour is enjoyable just for Smith's voice alone—so unusual, unpredictable and utterly pleasing that it can be wonderful to listen to even through the most egregious of lite-FM tropes

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Starboy by The Weeknd in Music
Jun 28, 2017
Starboy won’t immortalize his legacy just yet but it will strengthen a once desolate Toronto kid’s placement in a musical sect he probably couldn’t even have ever dreamed of being in.

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated 1989 by Taylor Swift in Music
Jun 28, 2017
1989 is a fabulous pop record. It’s not perfect – I’m looking at you “Shake It Off,” and you too “This Love.” But it comes so close (play “Style” on repeat for a bit, and see if you still disagree).

Jun 29, 2017
For only the ninth time in history, we have the opportunity to explore a new Radiohead album, and it’s worth the long five year wait. A Moon Shaped Pool is gorgeously produced by the band’s usual collaborator, Nigel Godrich

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Dance Again... The Hits by Jennifer Lopez in Music
Jun 29, 2017
The most immediately striking thing about Jennifer Lopez’s first greatest-hits collection is just how many hits the dancer turned actress turned singer turned fashion designer turned talent competition judge has racked up over the years.

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated El Dorado by Shakira in Music
Jun 29, 2017
Although we may not be 100% clear on the meanings of each song, the compositional techniques emotionally connect the listener and Shakira, from floor stomping, hip shaking hits to moving, heart warming ballads, El Dorado has everything.

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Pretty Girls Like Trap Music by 2 Chainz in Music
Jun 30, 2017
His fourth studio album, Pretty Girls Like Trap Music, isn’t just a testament to endurance, it’s one of the year’s best rap albums and a blueprint for graceful aging in an industry that prizes youthful excitement and innovation.

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Dear White People - Season 1 in TV
Jun 30, 2017
“Dear White People” always feels like a personal story first and intelligent satire second. Between the movie and the first two episodes, I’ve spent three hours at Winchester. And I only want more.

Jul 3, 2017
Once everything is taken into consideration, it’s safe to say that Twenty One Pilots have officially crafted their breakthrough record. Although they may not have invented the concept of fusing rock and hip-hop, it’s a refreshing change
