It's not necessarily as easy as that, either.
Who are these critics? And how did the music-loving public come to accept them as critics? One person's critic, after all, can be another person's hack. And what is the magic "number" needed to create this consensus?
Just curious... heck I could be over-thinking this too... but I don't think it is as simplistic as you suggest.

I think I liked WC more when it first came out and was fresh. Over time, I've come to enjoy IBE more than WC. Neither album comes close to DFN but neither album is horrible either. I just find that I don't really get many urges to put WC in the cd player these days.
On IBE, Vaccination Scar is probably the only song that I think is half-assed. Summer, Gus, You're Everywhere, Copenhagen, Mean Streak, Josephine, Heaven all kick my ass.
I think, for the most part, the songwriting on WC is pretty suspect.
