    This strategy [a homage to the last two or so years of pop and R&B] works because all the women of Fifth Harmony--Ally Brooke, Camila Cabello, Dinah Jane, Lauren Jauregui and Normani Kordei--are impressive, flexible singers.

    Reflection represents a promising first step for a girl group that has long been awaiting stardom and has quickly established itself as a wrecking crew of positive role models.

    Although essentially a radio-ready pop aperitif and nowhere near the cultural touchstone of Beyonce's album, Reflection nonetheless works as a Revlon ad-level post-feminist girls' night out with plenty of vintage '90s R&B swagger.

    It’s an album of fun, feminist pop that is simultaneously wise beyond its years (four of its five members are still in their teens) and refreshingly age-appropriate—and it effortlessly embodies the ideals grasped at by the girl power think piece wave, with a sharp, nuanced perspective that can only come from lived experience.

    Reflection takes a shallow look inward and a deeper look outward than you'd expect from a nonstop party.

    On the debut from Fifth Harmony (which formed during the second season of The X Factor, in 2012), high self-esteem feels like a party.

I love the lyrics, the vocals, and everything about Reflection and a just can't stop repeating We Know, Top Down, Reflection (song) and Brave Honest Beautiful. They exceeded my expectations… Expand

This album isI like Fifth Harmony and I think this album is the best of them by far (can't wait for title album which is coming tomorrow!). This album is full of cool pop, electro and dance songs, but sadly there is not many deep songs, most of the songs is just to be happy and it is okay, but I think great album has to have great lyrics to. And I gave 6 because of the lyrics, but still I like this album and it would reach my top 50 albums of all time. Best track: Top Down, Body Rock. Worst track: Everlasting Love.… Expand
