Peppa Pig may be banned in China, but according to Pitchfork, the animated piglet has a better musical album than Kanye West’s DONDA.
Music fans are confused after Pitchfork editor Dylan Green gave Kanye West’s tenth studio album DONDA a score of 6.0, arguing that the project deserves a higher score. Green adequately argued why DONDA didn’t live up to the hype, but after fans started resurfacing Pitchfork’s other recent scores, the confusion turned to outrage.

Most notably, fans unearthed that Pitchfork gave Peppa Pig’s album, titled Peppa’s Adventures: The Album, a score of 6.5. It seems that the cartoon character caught wind of her win over Ye because she’s throwing shots on Twitter now.
In a since-deleted tweet, the piggy dissed Kanye, saying, “Peppa didn’t need to host listening parties in Mercedes-Benz Stadium to get that .5 [microphone emoji] [pig emoji].”

Peppa Pig isn’t a stranger to rap beef, surprisingly enough. When she dropped her debut album in 2019, Peppa went head-to-head with Iggy Azalea in one of the strangest feuds ever. Iggy was also dropping an album on the same day, and she threatened to turn Peppa into a “breakfast special” over their competition.
Do you think Peppa Pig deserved a higher score, or is Pitchfork tripping?
