    uno de los mejores albums de x-tina por no decir el mejor un album libre fresco nostalgico que nos regalo ella sinceramente los supuestos criticos no saben apreciar el arte dando odio a artistas que no lo merecen y solo por ser mujeres las critican porque si hubiera sido por un hombre hubiera tenido mejores calificaciones este album esta muy infravalorado

    This one is really special and holds a place in my heart for influencing my taste in mysic growing up. It tells a beautiful story about being a young female adult singer and all that comes with it , maybe not all songs on it are a 10 but overall this is one of the best album of the early 00, definitely a game changer

    THIS ALBUM IS A BLESSING! Christina is back at it again with her second album 'Stripped'! This time the album is sexy and grown-up. This album is an emotional rollercoaster in a good way. Stripped explores different elements of feminism, sex, sadness, and love. Definitely in my top 10 albums of all time!

    El mejor disco pop de los 00, dejando de lado el cambio de imagen y la sexualidad de dirrty, este disco es maravilloso, cada canción es un camino, canciones como cruz, get mine get yours, wall away y infatuation merecen el reconocimiento necesario, este disco merece estar en listas de mejores álbumes , sin duda alguna la tesis de Christina Aguilera

Un poco osado para la época por sus looks y visuales lo cual distraen bastante de la verdadera obra de arte que es! Pero definitivamente es una pieza cohesiva, llena de alma y que a la vez refleja sensuamidad. MI ALBUM FAVORITO DE LEJOS

    THE best pop album of all time. It's inspirational, bold, and very mature. Aguilera told us her own truth in every single song. There are feminist hits on Stripped, empowering ballads, and brave, sexual anthems. No wonder why the record is considered to be so influential - it's simply genius.

    There's a vast amount of sounds for pop lovers to get on board with. Her voice is astonishing (yes, there's a little over singing) and the song writing is strong. It's by no means perfect and it has started to date, but it'll always remain a defining album of the early 00's. An album you'll happily return to again and again.

    This is the best Christina's album. It's full of emotions and personal confessions. Every song has a message and the music is matched to every track. The album learns self-acceptance, how to feel better after something bad and how to open yourself. She could show us that we learn by making mistakes and it's not bad. Her voice is my favorite.

    One of the best albums of all time, in my opinion. Beautiful transition from the Britney-wannabe to the vocal powerhouse, ready to bust your head open with vocals. I actually have a 10 (a mark I rarely give) to 7 out of the 16 songs, and 9,5 to additional 3. The only songs that bring down the total mark to 8,78 are the lead single "Dirrty", which is messy and all over the place and lacksOne of the best albums of all time, in my opinion.

The only songs that bring down the total mark to 8,78 are the lead single "Dirrty", which is messy and all over the place and lacks any power whatsoever, as well as "Loving Me 4 Me", which is an unsuccessful try to channel Mariah's sensual R'nB ballads. However, empowering songs like "Fighter", "Can't Hold Us Down", "Cruz", as well as the all-time-best equality anthem "Beautiful", amazingly touching and moving songs like "Walk Away", "Underappreciated", "Make Over", and "I'm OK" make up for them and turn this album in a real pop masterpiece!… Expand

    While "B2B" is Christina's best album, it is "Stripped" that made her a real artist. It's main plan was to destroy the girl-next-door image that was created while promoting her debute LP. It has definitely worked. It is also more diversified than her all-pop previous albums. There's rock ("Fighter", "Soar"), R&B ("Cruz", "Loving Me 4 Me"), latin ("Infatuation"), soul ("Walk Away",While "B2B" is Christina's best album, it is "Stripped" that made her a real artist.

There's rock ("Fighter", "Soar"), R&B ("Cruz", "Loving Me 4 Me"), latin ("Infatuation"), soul ("Walk Away", "Impossible"), amazing torch ballads ("Beautiful", "The Voice Within"), country ("Keep On Singin' My Song") and even some hip hop ("Can't Hold Us Down" and "Dirrty"). But the best point on the album is a breathtaking acoustic ballad "I'm OK" speaking of her childhood, which definitely wasn't the best time in her life. The best time in her life has started when she released "Stripped" and became one of the biggest R&B stars nowadays.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although Stripped is all over the place, it delivers the raw emotion and soul that Ms. Aguilera's voice is best suited to. Not only does it showcase her powerful and dynamic voice, but also everything that she's experienced so far. Therefore, I believe that this album is one of the best albums in the decade.… Expand

    This album was so underrated by the critics. It's honestly one of the greatest pop records of the past decade. I love every single song on it and the interludes are amazing as well! Congratulations on such a stunning album, Christina!

    In my opinion, an excellent album, diverse, ranging from R & B "Dirrty" the Rock "Fighter", with great vocals, great ballads, the album never becomes cloying, and she shows emotion like no other performer.

    Simply one of the best albums you can mix Pop, Soul, R & B, Rock and Gospel in its content. Christina Aguilera in it tries to convey their emotions, feelings and emotions passed through the letters, and close by the way. Finally, the second biggest album of Christina Aguilera - The Voice aka.

    One of the best albums of the decade. Every single song is strictly personal and this album saved her from doing drugs or ending up like Lindsay Lohan. I bet this is Christina's favourite album, aswell!

    This is definitely Christina's best album. I don't get why give a 55 out of 100 to it. This album is very personal and shows every side of a person. Dirrty is a very modern pop track that makes you wanna dance in a hot way. Beautiful is one of the best ballads ever written. In a few words: the "5-octaves fighter" did her best in this album.

    In attempting to show all of the things she has been doing since we heard her last, Aguilera lessens the impact of the better songs on the record. Instead, in between ten to twelve mediocre/good songs, we have eight to ten songs that would be better served as B-sides.

    Forget all you know about Christina Aguilera. She's discovered sex, rebellion, rock'n'roll and, at one amazing instant, drum'n'bass.

    With its lack of gimmickry and a surplus of sweet Seventies soul, Stripped is almost an album for grown-ups.
