So is Pitchfork, officially, no longer "the place for avant-garde white college students", but now just "music recs for social justice warriors?"
It's been a few months since I've checked it out but now the very first thing you see is this horseshit
Is this Conde Nast's fault? Or was it always this shitty? Or did the audience themselves just become really insufferable with all the safe spaces, obscure pronouns, etc.

What is pitchfork

>Hamilton locates the ways “rock and roll” (which tended to denote everything from soul to surf music) became just plain “rock” (which tended to mean only guitar music by white people)
Someone got paid to write this article.

the top post taking up most of the front page that you cropped out is "The 50 Best Indie Rock Albums of the Pacific Northwest" which is just a list of white people. sorry op.
Parker Phillips
hey these articles are actually interesting I was fooled by some local altright asshats into believing that this site is shit, jeez
Brandon Cruz
I meant it was for people that would consider themselves avant-garde, it's just a synonym for pretentious

Chuck Berry deserves more credit for rock's existence than any other individual, and he's a black.
Then again, this is basic shit every dadrocker knows, not sure what P4k is trying to prove.
John White
Pitchfork is shit. You were told correctly.
Charles Allen
im not alt-right, I'm enthusiastically voting for clinton, I might even cum on the ballot because im such a democrat, but these articles are always really shitty
John Green

Lincoln Perry

Easton Williams

Aaron Cox

Luis Garcia
>not sure what P4k is trying to prove
They are so self-conscious about how white their audience is that they feel like they have to post this shit
Tyler Torres
Am I the only one here who never liked pitchfork? I read one of their reviews and it made zero sense
Adrian Stewart
it's not like p4k alone is guilty of this. it's clickbait. pre-established narratives for people to j/o to as they pretend to be enlightened by "realizing" that black people created rock and that someone else actually wrote a pop star's songs. if they know anything at all these things are obvious but it's just feel-good schlock for page views.
Evan Young
I just liked the little number they put next to the review, but now I feel like the number is skewed so much by whether or not the artist is gay or a minority, that it is no fun to check out the number anymore. I guess I liked reading their negative reviews, sub-4.0 reviews are usually funny. Like Childish Gambino's Camp. But I think it's time for me to become an adult and not waste my time with this stupidass website.
Luis Howard
>page views
oh you are right, this is it

The irony is that they're not becoming more inclusive, they're just whitening hip hop.

Christopher Robinson
>I'm enthusiastically voting for clinton, pic related it's you even bernouts had more integrity than you
Thomas Nguyen
is there a site that just posts the album cover and a score?
Nolan Butler
dude that's totally a valid phenomenon that happened - the article is just dressed in the trappings of clickbait
Kevin Adams
why do some niggas here get extremely mad about p4ks trend hopping and supposed lack of journalistic integrity yet continue to bring attention to the site instead of going to/discussing a more preferable music site
