    Adam Lambert has made “Velvet” a testament to finding his way, personally and professionally, in what is his most accomplished solo work to date.

    Overall, aside from a lack of sonic variety from song to song, ‘Velvet’ is a strong showcase of a soundscape that is – pun intended – smooth as velvet.

    We all need to feel something to be inspired, to create, and to continue putting one foot in front of the other. With his fourth studio album, Adam Lambert is finally taking a step in the right direction.

    While Velvet's vintage vibe is impressive, it would only be stylish window dressing if the songs weren't as catchy and inspired as they are.

    His best work!
    Amazing album. I don't know what to say else. The voice, the lyrics. It's just so amazing

    For me, this album is great, more calm than his last album, but still was on repeat.

    Worst album from Adam and I'm very disappointed in him. What a waste in his talent! He should make more friends in the music industry...
