    'CAMILA' is by far one of the best debut albums I have ever encountered, it's a lyrical masterpiece with a phenomenal production that showcases Camila's vocals perfectly in every single song.

    All in all it's a short, but refreshing album, definitely worth a listen!

    'CAMILA' is the definition of quality over quantity. Every single song in there is melodious and Camila herself delivers all her runs / vocals / ad-libs so effortlessly. She's mesmerizing. Oh, and those lyrics. Wow. Pop excellence right here. A perfect debut.

    Camila brings everything a good album should have, with a diverse track list the singer shows she is in fact worthy of her success. The tracks are captivating and quite emotionally driven. They promote empathy and bring comfort. A good album indeed.

    The first album where I have listened to every track straight away, since Adele's 25. A perfect debut, that's not drawn out, too long or too overload on popular trends right now. And what I found most impressive is that 80% of the songs are single worth. Well done, Camila Cabello.

    i have no other words apart from- musical genius. this album is pure perfection, you can listen to it from start till the end and not get bored at a single track. every song has its own story and concept, not to mention that she co-wrote every single one of them. new sound, new rhythms, new lyrics, and new artist who actually writes her own music just what the pop industry needed.

    Even though this album has been released very early in the year, for sure it will be one of the best albums of 2018. The tracks are all incredibly diverse and showcase her songwriting prowess and her wide vocal range. All the songs wonderfully express her personality and the depth of her emotions. A short but incredibly sweet album which will become THAT pop record.

    When news broke out that Camila was going solo I didn't really care, for I hadn't cared much for Fifth Harmony in the first place and figured she was just another wanna be who'd disappear after a year or two. But, wow, did she prove me wrong. I truly think she is on her way to be the next biggest pop superstar. This is by far one of, if not the best, debut albums I have ever heard.

    From pop rock influenced Never Be The Same to cry-your-heart-out ballad Consequences, "Camila" proves that she has so much more than one would expect from an ex member of a girl group. Although this album has some questionable production choices, it's a lyrical paradise and shows what Cabello is capable of creating in the future.

    Solid for a debut album. Shes got a lot of potential so hopefully her 2nd solo album will be better. My favourites are: Never be the same, Havana, Consequence, Into It and Something's gotta give... the rest do kind of feel like fillers. Overall, I'm very proud of her.

Every now and then the album stops to just be energetic and have fun like the song "Havana", but then there are also songs like "Consequences" and "I Have Questions" that are more emotional and tell an actual story and have a more sad and slower tune in the background. It was interesting to hear all these different emotions in such a brief album and even when the lyrics definitely weren't amazing, her excellent voice kept the songs going. Though it's not a perfect album. Some melodies get a bit samey and there's the song "Inside Out" that aside from the warm tropical vibe in the background, has a stupid piano melody that gave me Dora the Explorer flashbacks. Luckily that's the only truly annoying song and the album picks up again after it. Overall there's a ton to like here and for a debut album this is a great success! Looking forward to new stuff from Cabello. Expand

    A cohesive album that still gives you plenty of diverse and different flavours! This album was worth my every penny, the production is A level, works masterfully with Camila's voice, which sounds incredible in this whole record. Camila Cabello is honest, open and genuine, her lyrics are intelligent and sensible, her melodies are crazy good. This is a beautiful album!

    I am absolutely blown away by this album. Camila delivered a solid body of work that perfectly represents her.

This is an incredibly album and it's kind of hard to believe that this is her debut album because the confidence portrayed on both her voice and lyrics would easily make you think she has been writing albums for many many years. I haven't enjoyed an album this much in years and I have to thank Camila for creating such a beautiful and honest album. She's going to be one of the biggest in no time. Expand

    The simple thing that each song is different from one another is important, because each person has specific tastes, moments where we want to dance or want to cry. It really exceeded my expectations. I expected everything to be in "Havana" and the truth is that I loved it and I can not even choose a song as a good next single

    I love how the album is so representative of hers, with the latin vibes and her name being credited on the composition of every song. Her vocals stand out so well on the songs and they carry so many emotion. A great debut album. i expect even more quality in the future.

    This album connect teenagers with adults, mixing modern urban sounds with retro pop/back to basics taste. Smart and relatable lyrics, latin accent (probably future bops) but heartbreaking ballads (probably some bop too) and her always particular signed voice and vocals that makes her unique. Not a single song that you want to skip. BRAVO!

    We were waiting for this album a entire year, and now, "we have this in our hands". I have so many emotions inside me, my heart it's beating so fast when I hear every song, is just perfect. Thank you Camila for show us a part of your heart, of your soul and all your being.

    What an album!
    I didn’t expect it to be this good!
    I’m really happy she didn’t go with what people expected and actually made a strong debut!

    All of the songs in her debut album as a solo artist are heartfelt and genuine, from the lyrics to the vocals. A perfect balance of dance-pop and ballad. A masterpiece.

    Camila is an excellent pop record, and a welcome change from the 2017/2018 pop norm. It doesn't try to be like everybody else. The likes of Dua Lipa, Anne-Marie are great pop artists, but their sound feels overly current and are very likely to date. Camila on the other hand, keeps things simple and classic. Gorgeous production, sweet melodies, no vocal show boating and no over-usage ofCamila is an excellent pop record, and a welcome change from the 2017/2018 pop norm.

    Este es un increíble album. Camila brilla en el. Es un album que entrega calidad de letras, sonidos y melodías. Lo mejor que pudo hacer esta chica fue salirse de Fifth Harmony, el mundo se estaba perdiendo a una excelente artista.

    Living between two cultures can be alienating, but Camila Cabello packages her experience as a Cuban-American seamlessly into pure pop perfection.

    “Never Be the Same” proves that Cabello doesn’t need a mammoth voice. The love-is-a-drug lyric she’s singing is dumb, but she sells it so joyfully that you don’t even notice, and its wonderfully breathy, high-register hook ensures “Havana” won’t be her last solo hit.

    While Cabello stands out on the more fiery tracks, she also shines in subtlety.
