    This album shows not only artistic growth both lyrically or sonically, but it is Perry's first album that is mature and greets her into adulthood.

But the other songs on the album exempt from the sheen of nostalgic bog down the record and earn instantaneous skips. Without trying to sound condescending i think Katy Perry works best under the constraints of a single and often pales in the confines of a full length record. But even so this makes for a fun listen.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Álbum com sonoridade perfeita perfeita, músicas alegres, metafóricas ... A cantora conversa sobre diversos assuntos em seu disco, como por exemplo a espiritualidade, que ela não havia abordado em nenhum outro trabalho. Katy também fala sobre relacionamentos, sua capacidade para fazer e produzir coisas e a forma como ela vive a vida. É o disco de pop que o mundo precisava. Se você reparar bem, Prism é dividido em duas partes, assim como o “Reputation” de Taylor Swift. De um lado temos grandes faixas otimistas, e do outro há músicas que usam do sentimentalismo exagerado, dando uma sensação de confessionário. Expand

    Prism is a fun, listenable pop album. I’m mean yes it isn’t the best lyrically but it’s a very enjoyable. My favorites are Roar, Legendary Lovers, Ghost, Unconditionally, By the grace of god, and It takes two.

    This is easily the best album by Katy Perry. She sounds like a grown woman, who finally found herself after a Teenage Dream. This album might not be as successful as Teenage Dream, but artistically speaking, it is a more mature album.

    SUCESSOR NATURAL. Um dos melhores da Katy Perry, O PRISM chega com o hino aclamado roar que lhe rendeu mais um #1 pra conta. Iluminado, alegre, porém com um lado também obscuro, o prism mostra a evolução da Katy Perry em realçao ao TD. O único erro foi não ter tornado LL single, mas nós a perdoamos por isso.

The PRISM repertoire may have been poorly structured, but by doing a deeper analysis (and filtering), you can put aside those commercial songs and capture the real sense of "transmitting the light" idealized by the sunflowers on the cover. Songs like "Spiritual", "Double Rainbow" and "By The Grace of God" reveal the purity of Perry's heart, show the artist's evolution in song interpretation, and the production's maturity in taking the best of the 2 predecessors, and apply evenly in this.
    In addition to those already mentioned, the songs "Unconditionally" and "Dark Horse" deserve special mention.

    The album is divided into two parts. The 1st half is radio friendly dance tracks that Katy excells in bringing a pop banger. The second half is a more personal and intimate experience sharing stories of Katys life and show topics of resilience and growth. Katy shows her strength in powerful empowerment songs.

    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.
