    Prism is the epitome of a perfect pop album. The first one half is made of songs which are pop perfections and hit materials like Roar and Dark Horse. The other half establishes Perry as a songwriter.

    Quase 10 anos após o seu lançamento, PRISM prova a crítica técnica responsável por chamá-lo de esquecível que ele não só é lembrado, como também se mostra um dos álbuns mais memoráveis e marcantes da década passada. E isso deve representar um pesadelos à eles, por estampar um enorme erro em suas faces.

    i think this is katy perry's best album so far, everything perfect on this album both non-singles and singles. legendary lovers is a very good song to become a single.

    Em questão de produção é muito superior aos anteriores, tem sonoridades muito melhores. Se tivesse letras boas seria quase perfeito. Porém além das letras também temos a coesão que praticamente não existe no álbum.

    One of the most siginificant pop albums made to date. Everything's pretty nice and some tunes are incredible bops!

    Pop excellence from start to end, production is elite, lyrically it's elite. One of the best pop albums of this century without a doubt.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es un excelente álbum, algunas canciones son un poco olvidables como Ghost o Double Rainbow, pero las demás canciones son impresionantes. Supo seguir con el éxito de su anterior álbum Teenage Dream esta vez siguiendo un concepto un poco más oscuro. Es casi imposible decidir cual es la mejor canción del álbum porque todas son impresionantes, Katy hizo sin duda un excelente trabajo. Expand

    Everything that is missing from [Lady Gaga's Artpop] is here, but everything that is good about it is spectacularly absent from Prism.

    Prism feels transitional, the work of an artist clever enough to be restless, yet unable to split from a winning formula. [Dec 2013, p.110]

    It doesn’t require the patience or emotional/intellectual involvement that albums I typically listen to require. The cool thing, though, is that it does have quite a bit of redeeming value.
