Lovely and tiring all at once

A deluxe that takes us nowhere! Ariana is trying to create a narrative that she can make good music, but she fails miserably. I admit I gave Eternal Sunshine a second chance and, in a way, I don’t regret it. The initial album is very caricatured and infantilized, and good songs like True Story and Supernatural didn’t receive the recognition they deserved, which led to tacky and desperate songs shaping the album's narrative, unfortunately! The 6 deluxe tracks are extremely ... read more

Ela realmente sabe o que está fazendo! Marina conseguiu entregar um dos melhores álbuns brasileiros dos últimos anos. A coesão, as letras, as melodias e a produção foram tudo tão bem planejados e executados. O projeto em si é excelente, porém, tenho receio de que Marina acabe caindo na mesmice, já que o álbum não se distancia muito dos trabalhos anteriores da cantora

I don't know what to say, it's just pink. It was too complex for 2013, I understand the criticisms and praise, this album really divides us.
Manicure is a bop

Manufactured album—that’s the only thing I can say. Let’s be honest... The Beyhive only accepted this album because it was well received by critics and became the frontrunner for AOTY in 2023. I’ll never forget the day Beyoncé released Break My Soul, and her fans negatively compared it to Lady Gaga’s music. Everything about this album reeks of hypocrisy, especially from the Beyhive. They ruined it with the narrative that Beyoncé should be the only ... read more

She had everything to make the best album of the year, but she threw it all away! I was disappointed with this project because I believed Gaga could have reinvented herself, but instead, she ended up releasing the most lackluster album of her career.
With most of the songs being a blatant inspiration from other pop divas like Ava Max, Gwen Stefani, Taylor Swift, and even Gaga herself, I feel like she did more of the same, but in a much weaker way compared to her previous works. I was shocked ... read more

Honestly, she’s not that different from other pop girls. The album itself is good, but I don’t see it as something innovative or completely niche, as many claim. FKA has a great chance of finally becoming more recognized and consumed, but her "fans" seem to prefer that she remains an undervalued, niche artist.
I admit that, on first listen, it feels like she created something surreal, but once you start listening and analyzing without bias, the project becomes as common as ... read more

Seriously, what a boring album! Billie didn't make the slightest effort to create a halfway decent album. With only 10 songs, it feels like 30—everything is exhausting and repetitive. Halfway through the album, I kept wondering if that torture would ever end. The project itself was carried by TikTok virals, with the only truly decent songs being Birds of a Feather and Lunch.

I listened to the album as impartially as possible to try to understand the outrage from Billie’s fans ... read more

Bom, Luísa tentou fazer um grande álbum pop, e digamos que ela conseguiu… em partes. Com o tema central baseado em suas vivências nos últimos anos antes de completar 23 anos, ela criou um conceito interessante, porém mal executado. Poucas músicas desse projeto realmente abordam sua perspectiva e experiências de vida.
Penhasco, Mulher do Ano, Intere$$eira e Melhor Sozinha foram as únicas faixas que, de fato, se encaixaram na proposta ... read more

Simply her best album. This record has such an optimistic and intense atmosphere that it makes anyone fall in love with Britney. The production, like in any of her projects, is insanely good. The layers, backing vocals, and synthesizers in this album, in particular, gave me a true serotonin rush — simply impeccable.
The songwriting itself isn’t that strong. Womanizer, for example, is a classic, but its cliché nature, though catchy, can become irritating over time. On the ... read more

I feel like Lady Gaga lost her artistic and critical sense when she released the infamous Chromatica. Slowly but surely, she’s coming back to the realization that she’s a great artist and can create excellent music without relying on her old hits.
Abracadabra isn’t better than Disease, but it meets the standard of excellence that Gaga is capable of. She clearly wants her queen’s crown back — and if she keeps releasing singles like this, she’ll definitely get ... read more

Taylor Swift’s ungrateful daughter desperately needs lessons on how to make a genuine album. The so-called rockstar is trying to carve out her artistic identity through crude and meaningless songs.
Well, Vampire is a great song, but it completely lacks personality. This girl’s failed attempt at replacing Taylor Swift is making her lose whatever authenticity she never really had in the first place.
I don’t see her as a good singer or songwriter. The album, overall, is mediocre.

Man, this screams Nickelodeon. Ariana tried to make some sort of open letter to her fans, and the result was a disaster. The same generic trap beats, the same songwriting formulas… it’s obvious she doesn’t enjoy making music anymore.
The Boy Is Mine is definitely a bop, but it sounds extremely Positions—if only she had followed that direction.
Honestly, Ariana was never a reference for anything groundbreaking or well-executed. It feels like she’s trying to prove ... read more

Well, I feel like this album is hated simply because it’s extremely popular and achieved massive numbers, making certain "A-listers" furious.
It’s not Swift’s best, that much is clear, but when you recognize the depth and intimacy Taylor gave us in this project, you start to see it in a more genuine and honest way.
The outrage from some Swifties came from the expectation that Taylor would once again romanticize her past relationship with Joe Alwyn. Instead, they ... read more

The last time P. Diddy’s ex-wife was truly an artist. And, honestly, a good album—I can’t deny that. She knew how to showcase her artistry and created one of the most memorable albums of 2013.
With controversies surrounding the alleged theft of Sia’s compositions and references to a domestic abuse case, she had no fear of exposing her intimacy with Jay-Z, making everything feel extremely fake and unpleasant.
Fans will claim that this project “revolutionized the ... read more

Truly one of the greatest pop albums of all time—extremely captivating and extraordinary. With Chris Rowe’s smooth production, Swift completely redefined this album’s story, making it feel lighter and more refined.
I feel sad that she wasn’t able to fully capture the essence of the original album. I believe Shellback and Max Martin were deeply missed in this re-recording; Martin’s chord progressions could have better conveyed the New York essence of the stolen ... read more

Beyoncé spared no effort in making an album as mediocre as this. Like, girl, you could have created a true country album with authentic storytelling, but instead, you chose to make something extremely unpleasant with a hint of desperation.
Although it is indeed cohesive and features impeccable production—giving listeners the impression of hearing one continuous song from start to finish—she failed to make the most of what she was doing. I have to praise 16 Carriages, as it ... read more

Definitely one of the best pop EPs of 2017! Bebe Rexha masterfully created pop songs at a time when reggaeton was dominating the charts. This EP is incredibly cohesive, bursting with personality, and, most importantly, full of identity—something rare in 2017. Despite its seemingly predictable themes of romantic failures, nothing in this EP feels cliché or uninspired. On the contrary, it turns these themes into a true reflection of her personality and experiences, something we can ... read more
