    Quiet, raw and emotional. Her political loudness aside, and after the fluke of her last album, she managed to produce one of the most honest and heartbreaking albums of the past years. Welcome back, Lily.

    This album is a nothing short of a masterpiece. The production, witty yet deep lyrics delivered with such a fine vocal has made this album of the year for me. Everything to Feel Something is one of the best songs ever made. No doubt. I love how it was a nod to her first album, the beat choices and vocal delivery gave me fond flashbacks to 2006.

Lily Allen is one of the most original artists the world has been blessed to hear.

    No Shame is her best project, deserves so many awards. This is what a pop album should sound like, Lily has out beaten all of her peers. Congratulations.    … Expand

    Sincere, heartbreaking, sad but at the same time catchy. It’s Lily at her best.

    Lily conseguiu nos mostrar seu lado mais pessoal e transparecer intimidade e vulnerabilidade da forma mais pura possível. O álbum está impecável, do início ao fim. É nítido o seu amadurecimento tanto pessoal como musical, desde Sheezus. As letras estão mais maduras, sinceras e profundas, mostrando uma Lily que pouco conhecíamos, juntamente com o instrumental perfeito e o conceito do álbum.Lily conseguiu nos mostrar seu lado mais pessoal e transparecer intimidade e vulnerabilidade da forma mais pura possível.

    It's been years since I last faced an album with such genuine intimacy as I did with No Shame. Lily has reached her absolute peak, songs such as Three carry an absurd emotional power whereas others like Apples reach into that place between the end of a relationship and the end of a feeling to bring us back to what it's really all about. The special way in which she deals with pressureIt's been years since I last faced an album with such genuine intimacy as I did with No Shame. Lily has reached her absolute peak, songs such as Three carry an absurd emotional power whereas others like Apples reach into that place between the end of a relationship and the end of a feeling to bring us back to what it's really all about. The special way in which she deals with pressure coming from her feelings and public image gives the record the "absolute perfection" trait. Congratulations Lily, you just gave the world a musical masterpiece and as a longtime listener and fan, I couldn't be more proud of you!… Expand

    Lily Allen is such a great artist. She managed again to reinvent herself, musically and lirically, without losing her personality, her vibes, her style. No Shame is full of themes and musical genres, and Lily sounds perfect in just every song. From being a mother, to being a star, from being a lover to being a person, that's what this album is all about. Just simple and direct, like theLily Allen is such a great artist.

    As far as pop albums go, this is one of the best i've heard in a while. The instrumentals match really well with Lily's genuine voice.

    The experience shown in form of song is shown in passionate, but clever lyrics.

    Favorite songs: Come on then, Three, Trigger Bang
    Least Favorite Songs: Lost my mind, apples

    The somewhat dated soundscape presents the album one relative weakness, but truthfully, sticking to her guns serves Allen and No Shame just fine, with the clear spotlight allowed for her vocals.

    Songs about divorce are hard enough, but Allen really gets the tears rolling on "Three", written from the perspective of her children whom she feels she has neglected with her busy touring schedule and life in the spotlight. ... While these sober moments are perhaps the most impactful on the album, Allen connects with her dreamy voice on less heart-wrenching tracks.

    It is an album far less fun than her previous ones, but that’s the point: Allen’s a bit tired of fun, and isn’t afraid to admit that “fun” can sometimes be the source of your troubles.
