    It’s no surprise that Barbie World, the song she shares with her protege Ice Spice, is 109 seconds of pure plastic bliss. Like much of the soundtrack, it fizzes with moreish, sugary filth, simultaneously R-rated and child-friendly.

    The only dud is GAYLE’s ‘butterflies’, which does nothing more than showcase the record’s corporate origins. Sampling a Y2K hit would have surely looked good on paper at some point; in reality it’s a confused mish-mash of sounds, the sample appearing as an add-on, the newcomer without the star power of her peers here to hint lyrically at anything of note. That aside, life in plastic does indeed sound fantastic.

    Barbie: The Album is a celebration as colorful and uplifting as the movie itself, and both are highly recommended.

    Barbie the Album dashes headfirst for airy joy and low-key festivity, all hyperbolic and glittery when its primary focus should be on elucidating the film’s feminist thesis.

    All in all it’s a decidedly mixed bag, with producer Mark Ronson failing to make the experience even remotely coherent, though during this soundtrack’s highlights even the most committed Nolan fanboy might just get caught up in the hype.

    Despite its underwhelming second half, ‘Barbie’ is packed with a surprising diversity of sounds paying homage to the Mattel muse. The soundtrack has some wonderful highs and some miserable lows – but then again, it’s not all rosy in Barbie Land…

    I’m not so daft as to believe that a Barbie soundtrack album should have made for groundbreaking or era-defining art – but on a level of pure enjoyment, listening to a concept album about Barbie does wear thin very quickly.

    Barbie Album is a discomfort, happy yet disappointed somehow. Like I like the Ice Spice song Barbie World with Queen Nicki Minaj and theBarbie Album is a discomfort, happy yet disappointed somehow. Like I like the Ice Spice song Barbie World with Queen Nicki Minaj and the PinkPanterness song Angel a cute song and Home by Haim. I well appreciate Billie Eillish she's still making a great songs though. However some of the song I didn't well enjoy that much or I don't like it at all. Like the Speedrive by Charli XCX or the Barbie Dreams by FiftyFifty and Kalii. Kalii gurl I love u and your Area Codes but the song your new made is mess. Dua Lipa's song "Dance The Night" is a very pretty pop song but I don't know I'm not vibing it all. Maybe I need time but it's not a terrible song either like the Barbie Dream or the Speedrive. "I'm m Just Ken" by Ryan Gosling my boo, what's the production in the middle of ur song. I kind of shock but anyway somehow good song yet I don't like at all. "Pink" by Lizzo is okay for me, no comment. "Butterflies" by Gayle and "Choose Your Fighter" by Ava Max is a mess. Sorry sweeties but I don't fan of this song. The rest that I didn't mention is you know what I'm talking y'all . Expand

    Not great at all. A lot of the songs are bland, repetitive & boring with nothing really to offer. The best songs are by Dua Lipa & CharlieNot great at all.
