    the "CAMILA" for sure and one of the most wonderful albums I've ever had the pleasure of listening has songs that make us cry so beautiful that e, camila has a voice that calms people the vocals of her in the songs are From another world I only have to say that she racked up this album. Very proud, I'm fan.

    Our Cuban fairy Camila did an awesome job dropping this amazing album. I love the way we can feel all of her emotions through these incredible songs. My favorites so far are Something's Gotta Give, She Loves Control, In The Dark and Consequences. So, this is one of the best album I've heard EVER!

    i just wanna say congratulations Camila for this incredible album, an amazing record, a truly masterpiece... Each song is very different from the other, She served vocals, lyrics, instrumental, background vocals.

    So proud of you Camila.

    Good debut album. Kind of generic, commercial and similar. Her voice is gorgeous but still can improve. Some tracks are wonderful while others are not so good. Hope her next album is better. (Actually some songs such as Scar Tissue and Crying in The Club that are not on the album are better)

    Camila Cabello's debut album is an intriguing record, with a sensation comparable to that of a book disguised as a pop record. It is, undoubtedly, more personal than apparent at first listen - and is a fascinating 36-minute trip into the singer and songwriter's point of view.

    Look, when I first heard this album, I thought it was great. You have to understand that I had looooow expectations when I went into it - I never liked Camila during her time in 5H. So the fact that I got songs that made me sing along put me on a high.

    Now that I've slept on it and have gotten off that high, I think I can honestly say that this album is...good. I can't say it's    Look, when I first heard this album, I thought it was great.

    Now that I've slept on it and have gotten off that high, I think I can honestly say that this album is...good.

    I can't say it's great. I can't even say it's ambitious. And I'm pretty sure I'm going to forget all these songs by February.

    But I also can't say I didn't enjoy listening to this album. Some of them are bops; the remaining are piano or guitar ballads that I think have some good lyrics. There's no song that I actively hate - but there's no song I actively love, either.

    I've been a little unfair to poor Camilla in the past. I don't like her voice, but that shouldn't be a problem if she had the tunes to back it up. Her voice is unique, and a lot of iconic singers became iconic because of their unique voices. Cyndi Lauper, for example. And some of these songs really compliment her voice. But then there are tracks like Never Be the Same that just...her voice is really grating at times.

    My biggest problem with this album is how every song reminds me of another song from a different Top 100 artist. Inside Out basically reuses lyrics from The Chainsmokers, Into It sounds a lot like Sober by Lorde, and Never Be the Same will blend in perfectly with every other song on the radio. That doesn't bother me enough to hate it, but it does contribute to the whole 'forgettable' thing.

    So while I wouldn't recommend this album simply because I don't find it interesting enough to recommend to anyone, I wouldn't say no if someone asked me if they should listen to it. I'd probably say maybe.    … Expand

    on and all, for a debut album camila really did the damn thing, she had 100 countries have her album go #1, joining the likes of ed sheeran, beyonce, taylor swift, and more. that is absolutely amazing, since it's her debut album. the album was also critically acclaimed, as you can see by looking at the other reviews by the critics.

    I was expecting more from Camila's album. compare to her former Groups album this is a disaster. Fifth Harmony by Fifth Harmony had soul and R&b influences alongside edm and pop sounds. Camila by Camila Cabello doesn't have a distinct sound. All of her tracks sound the same, besides Havana. I'm really disappointed with this album, I was expecting much more from her and her team.

    This album is so personal, so simple and so beautiful! When I heard for the first time I feel like I heard her soul. Her voice is so soft, the melodies is so contagious and I just can't stop to listen this album.
    So thankyou Camila for made the album of this year!

    simply camila transmits what he really feels at some point in his life, many people identify with their songs for being so sincere, and I include myself in those people.

    Such an overrated record, but it's still pretty enjoyable pop music. Songs like Havana, Real Friends, In the Dark are playing pretty good to Camila's strengths, even if his voice sounds a little over-produced and she doesn't have a phenomenal or super recognizable voice. This album, to be an solo debut, it's even than Fifth Harmony has made in the past, with sometimes interesting lyrics,Such an overrated record, but it's still pretty enjoyable pop music.

    "Camila" is a beautiful album, but it's assessed way too highly. It's just a regular pop album to me. I think people just like Cabello.

    Algo decepcionado la verdad. Los tres adelantos indicaban y marcaban una decente dirección para el album. Me esperaba algo mas de latineo al estilo Havana.

Una simpática balada con guitarra donde la voz de Camila suena amena y preciosa. -She loves    Algo decepcionado la verdad.

    -All these years: Nada mal. Una simpática balada con guitarra donde la voz de Camila suena amena y preciosa.
    -She loves control: Primer batacazo del disco. Una especie de reggaeton popero sobre producido.
    -Havana: Primer adelanto del disco. Temazo que va creciendo con escuchas. El tema mejora después del rap de Young thug donde entran unas trompetas que dan encanto a la canción.
    -Inside Out: Mantiene un poco el nivel de sus predecesores. Samples tropicales bastante usado y que nos llevan atosigando desde hace casi 2 años.
    -Consequences: Balada simple e intrascendente. Parece un descarte de Lana del rey.
    -Real friends: me gustaría decir que eleva un poco el disco, pero ahí anda. Después de All these years pues como que el tema se queda corto.
    -Somethings gotta give: Nada, mas de lo mismo. Balada pop con una base electrónica exagerada. Peor aún que consequences.
    -In the dark: Se soporta. Como este hay mil iguales y mejores. No empeora el disco pero tampoco lo mejora
    -Into it: De lo pero ya no solo del disco, si no de lo que llevamos del año en general. Una auténtica tontería.    … Expand

    Not really my taste in music, but I'm just one person and there are still songs on this album I love. The album as a whole seemed like generic pop, and each song had little to no variety in sound. But the album still definitely has gems and was the perfect debut album for Camila.

    It's a good album, but I feel that Camila wants became the New Rihanna, make hits, in front of your time. Camila would has more luck If run next to World latin, building your place, like the Shakira did. I believe If her try be a big popstar, like the Megan Trainor did, your career Will be short.

    "Camila", with all its changes, delays, and ups-and-downs, was such a promising record, and it did deliver a lot of what was promised, just not quite everything. There's no denying the talent of the ex-Fifth-Harmony-member, whose vocals, a bit meddled with auto-tune (which, don't get me wrong, is a highlight), shine all through her debut record, but it's the filler-nature of a couple of"Camila", with all its changes, delays, and ups-and-downs, was such a promising record, and it did deliver a lot of what was promised, just not quite everything. There's no denying the talent of the ex-Fifth-Harmony-member, whose vocals, a bit meddled with auto-tune (which, don't get me wrong, is a highlight), shine all through her debut record, but it's the filler-nature of a couple of songs that is the main, but minor problem with this record. When she was pushing back the release, Ms Cabello promised her fans it was because she "wanted every song to sound like a single", and that she did: there's no song on there that I couldn't imagine being played on the radio. The highlights are pretty clear here: 'Havana' is a huge bop, hence all the success it's getting, and 'Never Be The Same' is a very well-done pop track and a very enjoyable sing-along, 'All These Years' and 'Real Friends' are good laid-back tracks (that both sound a lot like Justin Bieber's 'Love Yourself', by the way), and 'Consequences' and 'Something's Gotta Give' are tender heartbreaking ballads (enlisting the help of Ed-Sheeran-peer co-writer Amy Wadge for the former). The instrumentation and the production all throughout the album are just excellent, leaning on a lot of latin-infused and raggaeton melodies, which work for Camila so not-surprisingly well. However, some other songs just feel... empty; it's not the production, nor the lyrics, nor the vocals, but they just sound like fillers (you might want to skip 'Inside Out' and 'In the Dark' altogether). Another flaw is closing the album with 'Into It', which is a very catchy Selena-Gomez-imprinted track, but that just doesn't fit as a closer to the record at all. In retrospect, maybe she shouldn't have scrapped 'I Have Questions' and 'OMG' (which were two truly powerful tracks).
    That said, let's not forget that this is Camila's first record (which turned out to be pretty solid), and she's allowed to make a couple of mistakes here and there. However, the LP still feels so personal and genuine, and that is what matters the most.    … Expand

    "Camila" is short, sweet and light, but the best part about this album is that Cabello doesn't forget where she comes from. With the Latin influences sprinkled throughout every track, her pride in her culture is what sets her apart from other pop stars on the rise right now.

    'CAMILA' is a great debut album. Camila has a good voice, although the pitch correction is over the top in a few places. Her voice brings a great smoothness to a lot songs like 'Havana,' and a nice melancholy to 'Real Friends'. The lyrics are good in places, but overall they are your run of the mill pop songs.

    It is impressive Camila Cabello’s performance in her debut. This Caribbean rhythm involves so many emotions and different feelings that I made me feel breathless.

However, there are two weak points in this record, for example, Havana is an annoying track without purpose inside of this world, the classic pop music with a rapper wasting time and ruining the whole performance just being in a verse. And Real Friends that tired me before the end. The basic beach sound in the background did not with the excellent performance from Camila.

    In the end, 2018 started with a good record. Thank you Camila to have postponed this album.

    I liked her style, it's not a masterpiece, but its good for a debut album. Some songs are really passionate made me have goosebumps, and i felt what i thought she was feeling while singing them, but at another part some songs are forgettable, and some songs lack good production behind it.

    There are Latin/Caribbean vibes on songs such as SLC and IO, which will definitely make your hips happy. But for me, the raw vocals, the simplistic but elegant production, and the poetic and highly relatable lyrics on C and SGG, take the album to another level.
    Camila Cabello's vocals and lyrics have ability to trigger emotions you didn't even know existed.
    Therefore, if you're gonna listen to CAMILA, which you definitely should, prepare yourself for an emotional roller-coaster. It will make you smile, it will make you dance, it will make cry, and most importantly, it will make you remember.    … Expand

    “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.
