Um, like I said above, the problem is that he's not criticizing them. He's bashing them.
As wikipedia puts it, "Criticism is the practice of judging the merits and faults of something or someone in an intelligible (or articulate) way."
For the most part, he wasn't judging merits or faults, just saying, "I don't like brown, I don't like autotune, I don't like that dance move...etc." And that's fine to not like stuff. But that's just an opinion piece, not a review, as he called it. As a review, his piece was a failure.
