    This album was worth the wait. Christina poured her heart and soul into this album and worked with a great team to deliver a perfect and cohesive album that takes you on her journey of finding herself and finally feeling liberated. I love every song on the album!

    All that we love most in Aguilera is here: the daring, the reinvention and its unmistakable voice. The highlights in "Liberation" are some of the most interesting songs of her career, like "Like I Do" and "Maria".

    No doubt it's the best female album of 2018
    The combo Liberation / Searching for Maria / Maria is one of the best moments of the discography of Christina Aguilera.

    The sound quality, the lyrics and the voice is just pure genius. You can tell it wasn't made to please the top 40 chart but meant to keep it real about the music - which is what makes it so good. Few singers can do it like Aguilera does.

    I thought Christina lost it after Lotus, but this new album Liberation proves me wrong. This is Christina at her best, always reinvent herself and makes real music. Best songs are Maria (with the Searching for Maria interlude) and Unless It's With You.

Christina teams up withIn a pop era where everything seems formulated and lacking uniqueness, Christina Aguilera’s return is pretty much appreciated. After a safe and forgetful album like Lotus and a string of very commercial and radio-friendly collaborations, miss Aguilera decides to get real and raw and remind us all why she’s such an icon and a major influence for so many artists. Christina teams up with notorious figures from the current hip-hop scene like Kanye West and pop scene like Julia Michaels and MNEK, but also many extremely talented underdogs. Discovering and giving a chance to new talents is something Aguilera has done for a while now, and maybe that’s what helped her reach a climax where Pop is more moldable than ever before, embracing R&B, Hip-Hop, Rock and Reggae influences. Her versatile and one of a kind voice has no trouble in meeting with soulful and vocally challenging ballads/power-ballads (Twice, Fall In Line) while also adapting itself to simple, playful and sexy beats (Right Moves, Like I Do, Pipe). What makes this album so bright and memorable is those moments when Aguilera gets personal and takes no shorts: in Maria (her middle name but also the name of the main role of The Sound Of Music, which she samples in the intro for this song, Searching For Maria), she opens up her heart to the listener and dramatically expresses how she lost her passion for music in the way, which she wants to find again desperately; in Sick Of Sittin’, indirectly references the impact wrong professional choices had on her, rebelling herself to what the industry expects from her and searching for freedom and individuality; and at last but not least, the exquisite Unless It’s With You, where her voice is softer than ever and romantically opens her arms to love again to her significant one, after past heartbreaks. In conclusion, Christina Aguilera found her inner child, the pure and true love for music, her ultimate passion; and now she’s back in her classic fierce and unapologetic attitude that let us know that the best is yet to come, and Liberation is just the beginning.

    Experimental and eclectic but remains cohesive. Right Moves, Accelerate and Pipe are fun and playful tracks, but Sick of Sittin', Masochist, Deserve and Unless It's with You are she shines the best.

    It's finally time that people start seeing how important and impactful Xtina is to pop culture. This is the album that will show the world that she IS a visionary, she IS an artist and most of all, she IS one of the greatest voices of our time.

    This album is beautiful. Its sound is incredible, you have to listen to Liberation, Searching for Maria and Maria in this order. Deserve is a very good and beautiful song. Unless it`s with you is in my opinion a masterpiece.

    This album is great. It kicks off with the incredible "Maria", using sample of early 70 's Michael Jackson song. Another highlight is the goose bump giving "Deserve". Hearing the passion in Christina's voice makes listening to Liberation a heartwarming experience.
    I can sincerely say that this album does not have a bad song, therefore I feel it deserves to be called a masterpiece.

    An album that keeps pace with modern pop trends while remaining true to Aguilera’s past.

    Liberation never reaches the heights fans likely wanted from Xtina, it serves as a pleasant refresher for a voice that has earned its place in the annals of pop history. That said, it’s a bit sad to feel like her finest moments are, at least for now, also in her past.

    Aguilera lets her talent fly as high as her freak flag, solving pop’s current obsession with box-ticking by nudging their lines into shapes more her liking.
