Sep 23, 2014The best album to come out of 2013. It's a shocking improvement from her previous classic and it ended certain beasts' careers. May she bless my ears and all our ears with the voice of an angel for years to come. RIP FLOPGA
-
Sep 23, 2014This album is so common, current and plane that will surely please the public. It is an ordinary album for ordinary people.
Katy Perry abused to be the same as ever, without growing or propose as an artist: she is not an artist. She just wants to sell tracks as stupid as "Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar".
Besides her vocals lacerate ears on tracks like Unconditionally. -

Sep 23, 2014Everything is very reductive and generic... Maybe Dark Horse is somewhat nice but cmon... this gurl needs to stop the autotune... work harder katy otherwise find a new work

Sep 24, 2014This is me most reductive album i ever heard, the songs should be used to torture someone and other thing, a singer who can't even sing? STOP THE WORLD NOW, I WANNA OUT.
-
Sep 24, 2014An underwhelming follow-up to her previous album 'Teenage Dream', 'PRISM' simply revisits many elements from her past works. Although promised for a darker change in musical and artistic style, Katy Perry instead plays it safe and sticks to the same mediocre music made for the charts; made to sell. Perry sticks to the same formula, yet this time executes it poorly.

Oct 17, 2015Prism is a amazing album. Katy shows how she can write simple and beautiful songs with personal messages. Prism mixture fun songs with ballads and songs of self control. Yes, Prism is her light
-
Sep 28, 2014I was very sad to see how bad is pop music now days. The lyrics are so poor that you can't give a chance to the album, bad melodies et bad lyrics, how sad is it.. The melodies are not even good for a cartoon jingle of the sunday morning..
-
Sep 30, 2014Incredibly mature, but forcing maturity out was difficult for Perry, for the entire started pumped up and high but it ended terribly boring like a calculus class.

Nov 4, 2014Prism of Katy Perry it`sAmazing Pop Music Album, the most incredible artist in the worldThanks Katy for everting, songs like unconditionally, dark horse, walking on air, roar, this moment, by the grace of god, legendary lovers are Amazing, in the Bonus Track perfect song "It takes two" Katy you're the best artist of all time (y), Congratulations for the PrismaticWorlTour. So proud for you
-
Nov 16, 2014It's generally just a forgettable album. ZZZZ... I had to skip a couple of songs because they were jsut unbearable. There are a few decent songs, and she has a good voice, but it was just meh.
-
Dec 27, 2014This album have good songs, but most of them look like the same! I like Katy Perry but and I really think she did a great job with this album but she need to do different things and get out of her comfort zone.
-
Aug 21, 2015Basic, formulaic and the vocals will hurt your ears. Katy stitches together the same cloth 16 different ways on this album to make it's tracks. Such a downgrade from Teenage Dream, which was at least full of bops.
-
Dec 12, 2014Her best album, for sure it's not repetitive, we can see a more personal Katy, we can hear her voice, pop anthems and strong powerfull ballads and amazing lyrics, makes this album one of the bests albums of 2013.
-
Oct 9, 2015I don't know if Katy is so stupid to make music like this or her fans are stupid eough to like this piece of **** I am sad someone wanted to release "Prism". One of the worst albums ever made.

Jun 5, 2015Não há progresso em relação aos Álbuns anteriores, é comercial, feito pra vender.
as músicas boas são Spitual, Ghost, By The Grace of God, Choose Your Battles e It Takes Two, espero que ela traga musicas suaves assim pra próxima era ou seja Dark.
This Is How We Do ? Descarte do Teenage Dream, esqueceram de colocar e botaram nesse -

Jan 30, 20165 points off because the album feels like it should spawn hits, and that is not artistic development.
You will dance to it and enjoy some non-dull tracks, but overall it's just another pop release. No surprises, innovations, or risks here. -
Jan 23, 2015Perfeição, apenas. A Katy Perry sempre faz um ótimo trabalho em seus álbuns. Porém, não tem como agradar todo mundo não é?! O álbum é ótimo, e quem sabe aproveitar a musica, sabe do que estou falando.
-
Jan 25, 2015Katy Perry has come a long way. This is almost the raw emotion and fun of her life since her last album. Every song is either really personal or just fun. Her aim was just to do what she wanted to do and not win awards and be #1.

Feb 4, 2015That sounds so good! Katy sounds more mature, with incredible lyrics and beats! The Katy Perry musical's evolution scared me, not to candy and comemrcial but not so scared like One Of the Boys, Katy found her way! I love Legendary Lovers and this album desurve a 10.

Dec 12, 2015Es una obvia evolución al escuchar todos los matices que nos ofrece PRISM, el gran trabajo en sus letras y sus sonidos hace que el fan y el melomano puedan sumergirse en un maravilloso mundo de emotividad y sentimentalismo.
-
Jun 6, 2017Prism was one of the best records released in 2013. With its more mature lyrics, Katy proved herself much more than others thought about her. This time Katy bother to speak her truth instead of just releasing pop music generics.
-
Feb 24, 2015Juvenile songs screeched in a pitchy voice. Katy claimed this would be her darkest album yet, she still insists on childish songs like 'This is How We Do' and 'Birthday'. It was clear that all Katy was thinking about when "writing" this album was number 1's and chart hits rather than her emotions.
Considering she's almost 31, it's almost embarrassing. -
May 30, 2015this is the best perry album without a shadow of doubt, I found a smart move to split the album into 2 parts, commercial and emotional, unlike the other two, ONE OF THE BOYS is a confusing and horrible mixture of 2, the TEENAGE DREAM is entirely commercial, anyone who understands music can see that this is your best
-
Jun 10, 2015............................................After the generic pop 'Teenage Dream', Katy Perry goes worst on 'Prism', a stupid-Dr.Luke-messed-up album.

-
Jan 26, 2018Mais um trabalhi péssimo de Katy Perry, única coisa que presta no album são as baladas, By The Grace Of God é uma música linda.
-
Aug 8, 2015A excellent album. An album that has both fun upbeat songs. But also truly inspiring songs. Katy Perry kepps proving that there is more to her and she keeps getting better and stronger.
-

Jun 11, 2015Vou chamar a Gaga e a Taylor para ensinar a doceira como faz álbum bom, odiei só salva uma ou duas músicas, incrivel com o Katy só faz músicas comercias diferente da Lady Gaga que se arrisca e faz músicas boas não restam dúvidas que ela é a nova rainha do pop

Sep 7, 2015In my opinion, this is Katy Perry's strongest body of work. Her lyrics are better than her previous albums and finally we get to see the vaunerable side of her instead of the constantly poppy and up beat Katy that we know.
-
Aug 11, 2015This album is awesome, the best disco pop in milenium, the musics are very happy, make me dance, the mellody are sweet, Katy Perry sold this album a lot things, Katy perry is the best artist ever

Aug 21, 2015It lacks life and meaning. A generic album that is only for money making schemes. Abosolutey no art and life to the songwriting. The songs might be catchy but it is just one of those catchy songs that really don't make sense. Double Rainbow is the only standout to this horrible compilation. But this album is not the worst out of the rest of Perry's lackluster music

Sep 7, 2015In Prism are included some iconic songs,meaningful songs and other boring songs...I think that Katy should work to make more interesting songs and not focus only on 4 or 5 songs of one album!!!
P.S. I love Roar Darkhorse and Unconditionally -
Sep 8, 2015Legendary Lovers and Birthday are my favourites. I only enjoyed the first 8 songs on this album, the rest all sound like filler songs except for Ghost and By the Grace of God
-
Sep 9, 2015Its okay!
Legendary Lovers steals the spotlight for me, I feel like there were a lot of filler songs, no song is really bad though. Roar is the one I don't really don't like -
Sep 13, 2015I used to listen to her 1 year ago and now I did back and PRISM is still a good album, the last tracks are the best, but the singles are the worst. Ballades like 'Ghost' 'Love Me' 'Double Rainbow' are the best.
-
Oct 23, 2015This is a very bland album. Nothing stands out in any way and it seems like it's just a watered down version of something Lady Gaga would release. 0/10 if I could, don't waste your money.
-
Oct 16, 2015Melhores músicas: Birthday, Dark Horse, This Is How We Do, International Smile, Ghost, Spiritual

Oct 17, 2015este album foi o melhor desta década teve um otimo impulso no mundo Katy Perry mostrou se mais forte e mais corajosa doque em Teenage Dream , este é o primeiro melhor album de 2013/2014 em seguida vem 1989 da Taylor Swift . Na Prismatic World Tour Katy inovou aquilo nao merece ser chamado de um show e sim de um espetaculo
-
Oct 30, 2015After Teenage Dream, its look bad but also, there is unforgettable songs like Legendary Lovers, Walking On Air and By The Grace Of God. Silly to these songs didn't choose for be a single but still it is a beautiful album.
-
Jun 6, 2017much ballad, very cheerful music
songs of self control and music to make it clear that you send.
Congratulations katy.

It Takes Two, and Love Me Roar course

Dec 26, 2015Katy Perry's Prism has shown a vulnerable side of her and the song show empowerment, commitment and faith. This shows the inside of a true artist, spreading the light in!!!
-
Aug 25, 2020Para mi el mejor trabajo de Perry, sigue la línea audiovisual de Teenage Dream pero mucho mejor en todos los aspectos, letras mas maduras y trabajadas, mejores videos y un sonido mas austero y armonioso.

Jun 15, 2017PRISM feels like a repeat of the Tenage Dream formula. Alhtough there are substantial songs like Spiritual, This Moment and Legendary Lovers, the whole is just disconnected. Its an album made of different songs together, sometimes feeling empty and with no self identity.
-
Nov 24, 2021Terrible. No passion, no soul. Worst album of the year. I need something really good to clean up my ears right now.
-
Jan 30, 2016Amazing!! Prism is so fresh. Katy is so fresh. Best pop singer ever!! This record is so lovely, Katy find herself e looks like she's pretty comfortable. LET THE LIGHT IN!

Mar 23, 2016This album is full of light! Katy has evolved from her One Of The Boys days, to Teenage Dream until PRISM; we can appreciate something different in each song, from Roar to Choose Your Battles each one has a special meaning and a different spectrum but all together in the PRISM record. This album shows Katy going from a dark moment to a light ful one. The PRISM record is an absolute piece of art
-
Oct 21, 2016é uma perfeita criação de God, como uma renovação algo inesperado, inspirador e acalmante como acordar com o raiá do sol e ouvir o barulho da natureza
-
Apr 25, 2016Katy's best album so far! Waiting for her next album so I can say it again. In this album you can find everything. Musics to dance, to love, to cry, to think about your life and even to pray. Katy really knows how to do it!

Jan 27, 2017Um album maravilhoso, Katy com hinos como Unconditionally, It Takes Two, Walking On Air, Ghost
só não ganha 10, porque tem umas filers como Love Me, mas o album é otimo -
Dec 24, 2017Better than Teenage Dream but not as good as One Of The Boys. But it's good
-
Aug 28, 2016Everyone love Katy Perry , in this album, she's showed a more mature content. The Best album of Katy Perry, we realize that it is reinvented as a songwriter
-
Jun 6, 2017Katy Perry musical evolution is awesome! She finally found herself in Prism and Witness. I think her album is great, and she deserves a 10! CONGRATULATIONS PERRY.
-
Sep 5, 2016Amazing album, full of artistic intention and autobiographic content (By the grace of god, unconditionally (wrote in vietnam on unicef mission, inspired by the love of a mother for her children, spiritual...) lots of influences, like r&b and trap on dark horse, and lots of variety and a way more mature album than teenage dream. A very good album and not commecial at all

Oct 1, 2016a masterpiece, truly. People Need to shut up and just listen to beautiful and inspiring music! Katy Found herself, or atleast changed herself in this album. Every song have a message. It deserved more attention and less hate
-
Oct 21, 2016Oh just absolutely awful and trash. Generic, boring. Katy is doing the same old with no signs of maturity or progressiveness in her music, and it became tiring very quickly.
-
Jun 17, 2017Catchy, fun, what more could you ask for? Nothing exceptional in terms of thought-provoking, but definitely a bright and poppy album destined to lift your mood.
-
Oct 21, 2016The album of my life, i can really feel what she's saying in every song. The ballads can make you cry and reflect about your life. She's a very good songwritter.

Dec 6, 2013Everything that is missing from [Lady Gaga's Artpop] is here, but everything that is good about it is spectacularly absent from Prism.
-
Q MagazineNov 22, 2013Prism feels transitional, the work of an artist clever enough to be restless, yet unable to split from a winning formula. [Dec 2013, p.110]
-
Nov 14, 2013It 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.
