An impressive record that pivots between maturity and vulnerability.

The US pop singer navigates the trauma of early fame and the pain of a recent breakup on this sultry, bold third album.

Locket is a slow-and-steady evolution of Madison Beer’s best features. It’s a highly satisfying, seductive, heartbreaking, heartbroken pop opus.

Notwithstanding its demure title, the album's confessional, still-bitten, twice-shy sentiments assert themselves in steely dance songs and slippery '90s R&B textures.

An icon-in-waiting no more, she’s ready for her moment on ‘Locket’.

The singer’s third album flits between dark siren synth-pop, ‘90’s r&b slow jams, and crunchy 8-bit glitches. It’s her strongest, most focused work yet—and also her most fun.

There are some decent pop songs on locket, but Madison Beer’s albums continue to feel like a lowest common denominator of trends.

“locket” Album Review - An Admirable, Yet Flawed Attempt At An Artistic Identity
My third favorite of the alcoholic pop girlies, behind Julie Ragbeer and Amy Winehouse, has finally released her new album!
Considering the gap between the lead single and album release was longer than most artists’ album cycles, expectations were obviously high. And while “locket” is pleasant and competent, it still fails to fix the one thing that’s been holding Madison Beer ... read more
This evokes very expensive music with polished vocals that belong in a velvet box. In saying that, it has been utilised very well and have been left impressed by my first Madison Beer album experience.
i’ve been looking forward to this album, so here’s my review (first listen)
locket theme - 8.5/10
yes baby - 10/10 ⭐️
angel wings - 7.5/10
for the night - 4.5/10
bad enough - 10/10 ⭐️
healthy habit - 10/10 ⭐️
you’re still everything - 10/10 ⭐️
bittersweet - 10/10 ⭐️
complexity - 10/10 ⭐️
make you mine - 6.5/10
nothing at all - 8/10
full album - 8.6/10
i enjoyed this album wayyyyyy more than i thought i’d have done. her best album yet by far ... read more
This album is actually so good. I didn't listen to it when it released cus silence between songs was such an underwhelming album so i didn't really care for locket at first, but then i somehow got recommended complexity and nothing at all and those are so so good. This album showcases madisons more creative side she had shown on her debut album with an evolution to it.

Madison Beer, get cunty, get great dance producer, get crazy; the next Midnight Sun will be made by you.

I was too harsh and was enlightened by oomf.
I low-key still not a fan of the indie and pop soul posturing tho, felt like her songwriting is at her weakest there. She should just make dance album with BAMBII.
Make You Mine best track, yes baby yes I'm more forgiving of.
