    Bangerz é um álbum complicado para se julgar, ele foi um trabalho diferente de tudo que a Miley Cyrus já fez em sua carreira, clipes polêmicos, músicas marcantes, vocais maravilhosos etc... Mas ao mesmo tempo ele é confuso, parece não ter um rumo correto, dividir músicas maravilhosas com outras duvidosas talvez possa ter prejudicado bastante ele.

    Her most eclectic, fun and powerful album. The arrangements, lyrics and melodies are so mature and young at the same time. She looks like a confident pop star and still a vulnerable young woman. What else can I say? It's a bop. I really loved it.

    Every song adds something different to the album but at the end every little part comes together to form a big puzzle, you can see Miley starting in love with "Adore you" the first track in the album and ending with "Someone Else" which is about a broken heart and changing to the point that she doesnt know who she is.

    The album is really very good I dont understand why many do not accept it. The album is more mature, and by far the best of it! People are judging the artist, not the album!

    Not her best album. The only track that surprised was "Wrecking Ball", without that, I'd delete like 10 tracks from Bangerz before buying it, if I ever could.

    I think this album could have been better. Save a few really good songs, what remains is a wannabe rapper. To me, you did not come as a wrecking ball, because even with all marketing strategy, you are unable to have an excellent performance with his album, which means it really is not good! I love you Miley, but not this time!

    'Bangerz' is by far Cyrus's best effort to date.

These two faces flow brilliantly together throughout the tracklist, it is truly a first class pop record. Every song is fantastic in it's own individual way. Stand outs include 'Drive', 'Do My Thang' and 'Someone Else'.… Expand

    Absolutely, 100% hands down, ALBUM OF THE DECADE! We Can’t Stop opened the door for so many female artists, if it weren’t for Miley, the music scene today would be very different. Wrecking Ball was iconic, No. 1 on Billboard, and will be talked about for 100 years. Miley has paved the way, and she is only going up from here.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm a big Miley fan since Hannah Montana early days, but this album isn't good, it doesn't represent musically who is Miley, the hip hop/R&B/pop vibe doesn't felt like home for her at least in my opinion, I always felt like she was more good at the rock or country.
    Besides that, you can find a few good songs here, like ''Wrecking Ball'', ''Maybe You're Right'' and ''Adore You'', and ''4x4'' isn't bad at all if you remove that rapper.
    I really hope that Miley won't to an album like Bangerz again.    … Expand

    BANGERZ is the ultimate pop craze for those who embrace multi-genre crossovers. The album has 16 tracks on it and at least 14/16 are pure perfection. Lyrically, it comes to prove Cyrus' maturity, while musically its versatile production and writing show a clear evolution in the pop star's artistry.

    Clear masterpieces on the album include ballads "Adore You" and "Wrecking Ball" and also    BANGERZ is the ultimate pop craze for those who embrace multi-genre crossovers.

    Cyrus want to find herself. I don't like her new attitude but I have to admit... the album sounds very good. Some songs are powerful and some sounds unnecessary (SMS). Anyway, she can be better and she is in the right way.

    I bought this album expecting it to be okay. I was pleasantly surprised. This album has songs that reminds me of Hannah Montana, Old Miley, New Miley, Ke$ha, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj. The only thing that was surprising was that she raps better than Rihanna and Ke$ha.

    On the follow-up to 2010's 'Can't Be Tamed', Cyrus is able to portray to listeners the fact that she has obviously left behind her Disney Channel image for a more provocative and post-adolescent image; which is in some ways mature and in other ways immature. 'Bangerz' has some strong moments: "We Can't Stop", "Wrecking Ball", "#GetItRight", "FU", and "Someone Else" are album highlights;On the follow-up to 2010's 'Can't Be Tamed', Cyrus is able to portray to listeners the fact that she has obviously left behind her Disney Channel image for a more provocative and post-adolescent image; which is in some ways mature and in other ways immature. 'Bangerz' has some strong moments: "We Can't Stop", "Wrecking Ball", "#GetItRight", "FU", and "Someone Else" are album highlights; however songs like the country-rap disaster "4x4" and the pop rap mess "SMS (Bangerz)" show that Cyrus' vocal talent is still developing and that she is obviously still trying to find the right sound.

    'Bangerz', as expected, contains a lot of upbeat hip-pop tracks that at times are great but at times extremely annoying; but also contains some slower ballads that again are at times great but at times very cheesy and milquetoast. It would be nice to say that songs like the galloping, banging, dub-pop-hop masterpiece "FU" and the super-fun single "We Can't Stop" make up for the album's more lackluster tracks; but after listening to 'Bangerz' in its entirety; the bad largely overshadows the good. In conclusion, 'Bangerz' is nowhere near a good album but its not horrible either. 'Bangerz' probably contains enough hits to keep Cyrus musically relevant until the end of its album cycle, but the majority of its sixteen tracks quickly become tiresome and forgettable.    … Expand

    Few listenable songs. Each song is similar to another. Predictable lyrics. We can all admit that she is just a singer who can only release two good singles. The rest of the album is trashy

    I didn't really expect much of "Bangerz", looking at MiCy's new image and the titles of the tracks, "FU" and "Love Money Party". What's with all the hashtags and abbreviations? But wow, Miley really surprised me! This is like, one of the best albums I've ever heard. "4x4", "Rooting For My Baby" and the similar "On My Own" and "FU" are my favorites.

    Sometimes, like on the outstanding "Wrecking Ball," the emotion calcifies into catchy, mature hooks, propelled forth by Cyrus' oft-underestimated vocal heft. Then again, the breakup also produced "FU," a dismally adolescent electro-soul duet with French Montana.
