“You wont get ART”: Internet slams Pitchfork as it gives 5.6/10 rating to Miley Cyrus’ ‘Something Beautiful’

On May 30, 2025, Miley Cyrus's eighth studio album, Something Beautiful, was out with a lot of excitement and buzz. Pitchfork assigned the album a score of 5.6 out of 10 immediately after it came out, which many people believed was too low for an artist who is known for her genre-bending experimentation. People were so upset and angry by this bad score that they rushed to social media to vent their anger. Some people were angry that Pitchfork didn't give the album more credit for its bold mix of pop, rock, and experimental sounds.

The X.com handle of Transleytanked posted an update with the caption:

"Pitchfork has given Miley Cyrus’s Something Beautiful an embarrassing and humiliating 5.6/10. If the album wasn’t made for the charts — as recent numbers clearly show — and it wasn’t made for the arts either, then what exactly was it made for?"

Many people on the internet fought when Pitchfork assigned Something Beautiful a score of 5.6 out of 10. People spoke about a lot of things, such as how journalists should stay impartial, how art is growing, and how legacy media shapes public opinion.

People were more interested in Miley Cyrus's album after it got terrible reviews, which made both her old fans and new listeners more interested in her. There is still a lot of debate over Pitchfork's assessment, but the overall response has been more interesting. It might be anything from harsh condemnation to polite agreement.
