    This is by far her most mature work to date. Vocally, Beautiful Trauma probably is her best delivery too. And for the music itself, surprisingly she sang quite lots of genre that she never sang before, Dance Pop, Club song even Gospel. She outdid herself this time, proved why she could have a stable career than her peer. Last but not least, lyrically, Beautiful Trauma is a masterpiece,This is by far her most mature work to date.

    The best P!nk album without a doubt. It has an impeccable production, shows a great evolution of the singer and prepares us for his next album, since as always, P!nk surpasses his previous works.

    Sou fã da Pink desde 2001! E estou absurdamente feliz por ela após 05 anos lançar um álbum tão MARAVILHOSO. PINK NUNCA ME DECEPCIONA, ELA É E SEMPRE SERÁ UM SUCESSO, CANTA MUITO, COMPÕE SUPER BEM, CANTA AO VIVO, ELA É INCRÍVEL. UMA VERDADEIRA RAINHA.

    O álbum está maravilhoso, estranhei na primeira ouvida, primeira vez que ouvi a P!nk mais Pop e menos Pop/Rock que é sua marca, mas acabei me apaixonando no final das contas. As faixas Where We Go e Secrets estão pedindo pra se tornarem singles. Certamente serão hits!

This album deserves the recognition that Pink has deserved her whole career, but has evaded her for whatever reason. I'm so excited to see her out on tour this year as well!… Expand

    P!nk is a solid popstar and she did it again with Beautiful Trauma. From power ballads like You Get My Love to the most loveable/heartbreaking songs like Whatever You Want, the album is a mixed bag of emotions with the most important: her voice. Well done, Alecia.

    Pink, an artist that has a long career, proved with this album, that she´s not ready to go anywhere.

    Beautiful Trauma is an emotional, contemponary and dynamic album. That sounds unlike anything she's ever done before. It is really special. I dislike the track Secrets and the excess of melancholy.

What About Us, and Beautiful Trauma are such meaningful and overall solid tracks, the only bad track on the album would be Revenge ft Eminem, it's just corny which would be fine if the album's theme was funny.

    Com Beautiful Trauma, P!nk consegue trazer de volta seu estilo já conhecido, senti exatamente isso ao escutar Whatever You Want. Fiquei surpreso, positivamente, com a parceria do Eminem em Revenge. Acredito que ela tenha evoluído bastante com esse álbum e fico feliz com isso (mas ainda prefiro o The Truth About Love). Um dos melhores álbuns do ano com certeza.

    "Beautiful trauma" sounds different of the classic pop-rock of P!nk (without the rebellion), but is a good album. The participation of Eminem is dispensable in "Revenge". P!nk is over singing "You get my love". But "Beautiful trauma", "Whatever you want", "Barbies", "Where we go", "Secrets" and "i am here" (with a choral) are really good!

    P!nk é maravilhosa e Beautiful Trauma um disco lindo e digno de todas os #1 que está recebendo !
    Parabéns P!nk e venha para o Brasil

    P!nk shows once again that he knows how to make a good album, we do not have bad tracks, only songs that have totally escaped his trademark style that is Pop / Rock, but it is a delightful album to listen to, the vocals are impeccable , the beats and lyrics are great, only he can not get close to the wonderful work that was his predecessor.

    Beautiful Trauma is better than The Truth About Love, though its sound may not be as mainstream as her previous effort. On this album, Pink is being as real as she can; not only does she talk about love but also talks about the problems that the world is facing and it's really necessary for an artist who has a good platform like her to speak the the truth out.

    Beautiful Trauma is an intimate record. It flourishes in conveying emotions and stories, keeps an audience hooked and intrigued, track by track (and showcased Moore's ever-flawless vocals. The record is nowhere near traumatic as the album title suggests, but it sure is beautiful.

    P!nk is still relevant, vital, dynamic and a standout among the other pop artists. Beautiful Trauma features inner phobias about lost innocence, family struggles and political worries. Vocally impressive and vibrant it shows a woman who has fought to find herself and finally plays her game by her own rules.

    Highlights: Beautiful Trauma, Whatever You Want, What About Us, Barbies, I Am Here.

    With Beautiful Trauma then, Moore proves that she’s both still relevant, and a vital, confident female voice on the pop circuit who has impressively never really succumbed to the pressures of the overly-sexualised pop machine.

    Secure behind the protective pop wall erected by producers such as Max Martin and the ubiquitous Greg Kurstin, there’s little room for originality here. Which may be for the best, given the mid-album limpness imposed by the gratingly wistful, cello-draped childhood yearning of “Barbies”, which oozes insincerity. Pink’s on safer ground riding the pumping pop-funk of “Secrets” and the title-track.
