    Com melodias menos genéricas mas seguindo o que está na moda nos dias de hoje, o Tropical House, e com composições mais trabalhadas, 7/27 demonstra realmente que Fifth Harmony amadureceu de um álbum para o outro, não tirando os méritos do Reflection, porém, 7/27 realmente demonstra a "cara" das garotas do Fifth Harmony.

Destaques: All In My Head (Flex) que tendo Dinah e Lauren como vocais principais trouxe um amadurecimento bastante notório para a faixa; No Way com Lauren comandando os vocais foi genial, seus vocais mais "obscuros" trouxeram um intimismo sem tamanho para a música; Gonna Get Better demonstrou toda a potência vocal e a emoção que a voz de Ally pode ter e transmitir e I Lied que houve uma sincronia harmônica dos vocais incrivelmente surpreendedora.… Expand

    Fifth Harmony não tá aqui de bricadeira não arrazaram! I Lied, Dope, No Way são destuidoras, e That's My Girl, All In My Head (Flex), Not That Kinda Girl são hinos! As outras musicas do album não ficam muito atras não!! Album super coeso e bem produzido, com boa distribuição de solos e otimos vocais!

    Podemos nos vangloriar de 7/27! Diferente do álbum anterior delas, Reflection, ele não é composto somente por músicas festivas e vocais agitados, mas com músicas mais tranquilas e com vocais mais calmos mas sem deixar as batidas marcantes no fundo de lado, deixando muito difícil não se apaixonar pelo álbum.

    It's a really good album, I loved it. I think it's a great "comeback" after Reflection. Well done, girls. I can't wait to see you perform live in my country :D

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Esse álbum é muito diferente de outras eras musicais delas. Apesar de haver alguns deslizes como a falta de solos para algumas integrantes como Dinah em "The Life" e Ally em "I Lied, e também um destaque maior para Lauren que lidera grande parte das músicas, o albúm segue uma linhagem tecno tropical em grande parte das músicas que pode ser bem adotado por qualquer que não queira generalizar o gênero como pop… Expand

    O álbum é realmente muito bom! Finalmente encontramos algo menos genérico e comum, o álbum apresenta grandes canções com letras e ritmos incomparáveis. Claramente podemos ver que as notas usadas com 0 para esse cd não apresentam fundamento e sentido. Um dos melhores álbuns de 2016, perdendo apenas para Beyoncé Ariana Grande.

    This album is the definition of growth, which is especially shown in songs like Dope, I Lied, No Way, Gonna Get Better and All In My Head (which are my favourites). All 5 of their voices shine in this album, each member having moments that will leave you speechless (some more than others). The production on this album is also IT, especially on That's My Girl which is such an anthem.This album is the definition of growth, which is especially shown in songs like Dope, I Lied, No Way, Gonna Get Better and All In My Head (which are my favourites).

    Pop perfection! The perfect mix of songs to dance to & ballads. That's My Girl is a girl-anthem, and one of the best songs on the album. All In My Head (Flex) has awesome island vibes, definitely one of the best songs of the summer. I Lied & Dope are also AMAZING songs that people can NOT miss. Props to the best girl group of the world as in right now.

    The album is the perfect mix for a beach trip with friends and a chill afternoon. Really dynamic. I totally enjoy it. An older, matured Fifth Harmony were much more involved in the process of this record, We’re HERE for this confident, sassy anthem that encourages women to support and praise one another just like That's my Girl is. The catchy, fun nature of the album is impossible to ignore.

    This album is by far better than the group's first one, "Reflection", with a lot of possible hits and really catchy songs. Their vocals are on point and is one of the biggest highlights of "7/27". Fifth Harmony has shown with this album that they remain for another year as the best and the biggest girl group in the world.

    Fifth Harmony's sophomore album "7/27" is a monster of a banger. Unlike its predecessor, "Reflection", "7/27" is a fearless attempt at maturity. It explores themes such as love, heartbreak, and self-actualization. As well as the group's strong point - female empowerment (most notable are the tracks That's My Girl and Not That Kinda Girl, which has legendary Missy Elliott on the track).Fifth Harmony's sophomore album "7/27" is a monster of a banger.

As well as the group's strong point - female empowerment (most notable are the tracks That's My Girl and Not That Kinda Girl, which has legendary Missy Elliott on the track). Fifth Harmony has set themselves apart from their current counterparts by discovering their own unique sound, instead of wallowing in pop purgatory by sticking with sloppy ballads and forming their image according to the 'girl group stereotype'. The album itself is strong when it comes to the hard-hitting uptempo, but also very vulnerable and soft-spoken when it comes to more sensitive topics (No Way, Squeeze, Gonna Get Better). It is difficult to deny that in a patriarchally structured music industry, the empowering Fifth Harmony is breaking the scene.… Expand

    The best album from one girlband I ever heard. Well crafted beats, lyrics very well composed (thanks, Tinashe, to be here!), and very well distributed soils. It has everything to be one of the best albums of the year.

    This is better than their lastest album, I really liked it. The only thing I didn't like was "Not That Kinda Girl" sounds exactly like "Donatella" by Lady Gaga, the rest is OK.
    Well done, girls.

    7/27 marcou com primor o amadurecimento do grupo, vocais limpos, batidas viciantes, solos (finalmente) bem divididos, as vozes finalmente estão "casando". O grupo está de parabéns, That's my girls!

    At the outset, what a major step-up from their debut album 'Reflection'!
    Like Reflection, 7/27 also talks about empowerment, but it has its vulnerable sides. Like the girls described it is close to what they went through the last year.

The glo up in vocals, production, solo distribution, tonality, everything is just amazing! It is like they have included the best picks they had. This album is a perfect combination of upbeat, mid-tempo, and slow ballad. It couldn't be more perfect. They have found their sound and people are genuinely loving it. This labum has given the girls the chance to showcase their vocals that some of them couldnt do in the last album; and boy did they? Answer is yes! All the five girls equally shine and stand out in the songs. There is not one better than the other. These girls have worked hard for this and they deserve all the success. 7/27 is the best pop album to have released in a long time and that too by the biggest girl group in the world right now. I love it.    … Expand

    This album is amazing, there's not a song on here I dislike. It's a lot more mature than their debut, Reflection, both vocally and topically. The themes on 7/27 focus more on intimacy and relationships but still has a strong message of female empowerment on songs like That's My Girl.

    7/27 is a phenomenal album! The girls have really shown how they have grown as not only individuals but as a group also.

Over all I absolutely love this album especial because of the different genres of music used throughout 7/27, which really gives 5h the chance to show the world they really are the greatest girl group and why they’re are taking the music industry by storm. I honestly couldn’t be prouder to call myself a harmonizer!… Expand

    What comes with hard work is success, and in this case 5th Harmony's 2nd major LP release has showed the chemistry between each individual artist. Full of bangers, for good times and vibes, 7/27 is surely a commercial and acclaimed album.

    Album full of bops. This album is incredible. It's no longer "Camila and the others" but now everyone really shines. I like how they play with different sounds. My favorites are "That's My Girl", "Write On Me" and "Squeeze". My least favorites are "The Life" and "Not That Kinda Girl".
