    O melhor álbum de rap q eu já escutei, simplesmente esplêndido e magnífico. Iggy fez um álbum que merecia muito mais reconhecimento

    Now why the **** does this album make me feel like a bad **** who poisons her older rich husband wearing sateen gloves and runs away in a fur coat in a convertible with all his money?

    A very good album, the tracks give my hype, something that I can jam to in the night club.

    The best art of 2019! such an incredible work of art with such cohesiveness and theme! The art work is so aesthetically pleasing and her way of delivering and lyrical punchline and metaphors is amazing!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In My Defense parece que foi feito as pressas e sem nenhum tipo de entrega. Iggy Azalea se empenhou em não trabalhar neste álbum, que ficou bagunçado e sem nexo, ouso dizer que as faixas são iguais. O que salva são os singles.… Expand

    Plano, es un disco totalmente plano y repetitivo, si tan sólo las canciones hubieran sido similares a los sencillos, otra cosa hubiera sido

    O álbum é completamente desnecessário. Rimas complemento desconexas e tããão preguiçosas. Os beats são horríveis só salvando apenas os singles como Sally Walker.

    Outra vez amethyst se superou, o álbum é uma biblia sonora de rap, e tem maiores e melhores faixas do que no primeiro álbum.

    Pior album já lançado por algum artista de rap, essa mulher é um desserviço pro rap, ainda bem que se aposentou.

    Это неплохой альбом, но только синглы из него достаточно хороши. Однако она старалась и я поставлю ей высокую оценку именно за синглы. Жду следующий альбом

    If I were listening to this rap album expecting great rap and lyrics, then I would give this a 0. All the songs make an attempt at being rap, and there actually are a few songs that I would put in my playlist, but it's not rap. The beats are catchy, and there honestly isn't a 'worst' song on the album. There's a couple good songs, and then the rest are varying levels of 'meh'.

    in my defense es un álbum independiente de iggy azalea, que a pesar de no contar con una disquera, supo posicionarlo al mercado, lograr diversos hits y demostrar que una artista independiente también puede generar bops y excelentes videoclips.

    Azalea trae un nuevo álbum después de The New Classic, el sonido es bueno, con un gran concepto y canciones frescas, el álbum se hace muy ligero y bueno para escuchar

    It was a really good album. That music is so fabulous for dancing. A combination of fun and sexy lyrics. Iggy is perfect with new her style.

    Iggy is going to hell for releasing this garbage. On release night, i was actually excited, but going from track to track i felt like crying. This album is so lifeless and sounds like a bad attempt at mainstream hip hop. I guess the production is alright (even though you can def tell which tell had more production), the beats are alright and she can flow well but the whole thing is stillIggy is going to hell for releasing this garbage.

This is so fcking bad i wish i could airdrop my feelings to you guys to make y'all understand ! Idk what the user score is hearing and its showing they cant be trusted either. I really feel like she took 700 steps back with this album. A stain in her discography. Her unreleased album Digital distortion is miles ahead better and i'm moved to tears everyday that it cant properly see hasn't been the light of day but THIS has....This direction she's going is.... and its worrisome because it seems she hears nothing wrong with this and wants to continue with this direction. Like she listened to this and liked it enough to release it......… Expand

    Could’ve been a masterpiece if worked on more.
    Some of the songs are bland and the album has no personality overall.
    Twerking songs are good, but we wanted something more mature from Iggy with this album

    Surprised at the low score as this is her best body of work in my opinion. Sally walker and started are probably her best solo songs.

    Nobody expected Azalea to come back super talented and with an entirely new shtick. Nonetheless, In My Defense could have been a tad bit more introspective or at the very least, fun.

    The album is stacked with cartoonish approximations of what she thinks a rap song should sound like: shivers of bass, the occasional “skrrrt,” Mad Libs of designer brands and bodily fluids. Many sound like direct imitations of the rappers she admires.

    After a half-decade of life lessons, Azalea could have gone in a certain cathartic and mature direction. However, on In My Defense, she opted for a less gracious and, ultimately, exhausted route.
