Happy to interact with you again! I recently edited the Critical reception for more neutrality and order, and I think it's better now and ready for the review! CatchMe (talk · contribs) 03:33, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. I'll get to reviewing this tomorrow Locust member (talk) 04:43, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well-written

Lead

and served as the follow-up to his previous effort - would just say "previous album" for clarification. the use of "effort" in the rest of the article is fine though, as "album" is used beforehand.

Marking a departure from the psychedelic rock sound - add "of his previous album" to the end of this

I changed it to "Marking a departure from his previous psychedelic rock sound" to avoid repetition, let me know if that's ok CatchMe (talk · contribs) 02:23, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Background and development

Remove the space between the period and the source in the sentence ending with it showcases the Beatles creating their final studio album Let It Be (1970).

Keery listened to the personal lyrics of the rapper and songwriter Kendrick Lamar, and took them as a reference to not "edit" himself on the album. - "Keery listened to the personal lyrics of the rapper and songwriter Kendrick Lamar, and took them as an indication to not "edit" himself on Decide, like he did with Twenty Twenty."? for more context

Composition

Would put the first paragraph in a subsection titled Overview while the last two paragraphs in a section titled Songs for clarification

The opening track "Runner" showcases a personal songwriting - remove the "a"

Josh Glicksman of Billboard said that it "would fit" on Currents (2015) by the music project Tame Impala. - I think maybe just "Currents (2015) by Tame Impala" would work.

Not done Other musicians are described as well: "the duos Daft Punk...", "the singers Charli XCX...", "the band the Strokes". So I don't think that's a problem. CatchMe (talk · contribs) 02:23, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see what you mean. I think it makes the sentence a bit clunky but I'm fine with leaving it in. Locust member (talk) 02:36, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sonically, it is build over a Blade Runner-like production - Blade Runner (1982)-like production

Critical reception

No need to list the full names of the critics or their publications as they are already listed in the article. (except for Holden and Fechik)

Factually accurate and verifiable

he described that process as cathartic. - in the source, there are two mentions of the word cathartic. one is: "“It’s cathartic for me to be able to write about things that are going on in my life,” he conveys.", the other is: "Cue ‘Gloom’, a two-minute stuttering synth ode to feeling over it and moving on that’s every bit as chaotic as it is cathartic." - they don't describe Twenty Twenty's process unless I am missing something

He said it was "cathartic" to write personal things, so I connected it with the process of the writing of the album. But it's a bit unnecessary so I removed it. CatchMe (talk · contribs) 02:23, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

except for the one mentioned above, all sentences connect to what their source gives.

copyvio looks amazing, the lowest I have seen in a GA review.

Broad in its coverage

Maybe add in that his previous album was positively received in Background and development?

I only found a review from NME so added it. CatchMe (talk · contribs) 02:23, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could add in a Personnel section sourced from the album's vinyl. here is a picture from Discogs and you can just source the album's liner notes. close-up

Thanks!

Neutral

For sure, only reporting the facts from sources.

Stable

Yep, barely any other editors.

Images

Looks good.

Overall

Not too many comments here, all of the changes are pretty easy to fix. Let me know once you fix 'em and I'll happily pass this article on.

@Locust member: I think all is addressed now, with some comments above. CatchMe (talk · contribs) 02:23, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
