    It's such a sweet and relaxed album. You just get chilled. This album has production quality at its best and obviously JBs voice is perfection. I love this version of JB. It's so excellent and chill album. I find it better than Purpose and that's saying a lot about this album. 10/10

    Imagine being able to get away with making a album with songs that alll sound alike, no variety, no effort and then disrespect the R&B category by calling this R&B. I really think bieber should stick to pop it fits him best.

    This album is the worst of Justin Bieber's career, and also the worst of popular album! When someone compared this album with Abbey Road, I wondered: Why did he compare talc with quartzite?

    Upon hearing Yummy on the radio, i'm like "Justin Bieber's music was bearable and sometimes good", but now after five years away, he doesn't know what to do with his music career and took a generic pop/R&B road so people would listen to it and care about it. If this was 90s house, i'd give him a second chance but i ain't gonna try and listen to this album entirely.

    "Purpose" was his best album, no debate about that. It was also his only decent album, thanks to a high-budget tidy production. Here the production is mechanical and uninspired. It sound like one song streched for the duration of an album. Bieber's tiresome vocals remain the biggest problem of his music, not even his impressively pathetic lyrics can top that.

Bieber's tiresome vocals remain the biggest problem of his music, not even his impressively pathetic lyrics can top that. As the disastrous "Yummy" might suggest, this album tries to fit in Bieber into the new trend of music, dominated by urban genres, without geting too deep, mixing it with his ultra-mega-cheesy pop-appeal that his 11-year old target loves so much. "Intentions" was the only good song in this sea of mediocrity. "Running Over" gets the second place, even with that Lil Dicky verse (that says enough about the rest of the album).

    I mean, it's Justin Beiber. Nobody is surprised that his album is bad. Me neither

With The Weeknd giving one of the best albums in 2020 which was R&B, he really thought he could compete in that category. This man has 0 versatility and has done nothing but profited off of his ex-girlfriend who is doing much, much, much better than this man. This man has never scored above 70 on metacritic. This man is lucky he looks good otherwise his fan base of 13-25 year old girls would’ve dropped him off. It’s high time we move on to another male artist who’s strong artistically and no, not Shawn Mendes. Artists like Conan Gray have so much talent but the GP loves a mediocre white boy who has a discography that seems to fit into one big album that only the ones with whitie tighties would listen to. I can’t believe this is the ‘prince of pop’, better not make him king. Expand

    Quando você tenta fazer algo sem nem ao menos entender aquilo que você almeja, o resultado vai ser provavelmente um Changes. A tentativa grotesca de Bieber produzir álbum R&B foi sem dúvidas o que mais afeta o entretenimento nesse disco. As batidas e melodias mais lentas só tentam disfarçar o pop genérico presente. Vergonhoso e traumático.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I listened and danced through Justin Bieber's new album, Changes, clenching my back teeth.

    Maybe the music industry in Europe and the US provides such a good market environment for white men that some of them are lazy enough to turn in their insincere works and make a fortune, like No.6 and Changes in particular. The first half of the album is extremely lazy, the same trap beat as if he cut a beat into five or six songs, and then filled it with sterile moans -- this is the Changes Justin intends to bring to us.

    The second half of the album is not as uncomfortable as the first, but the production is so cheesy that the lyrics are neither nutritious nor meaningful. You can't write them. You've had "Lalala" and "YeahYeahYeah" before, and even the entire song is a single word that goes back and forth.

    Justin, what changes do you want me to see in you? The only change you've made over the years is that you've married a wife, but you haven't matured at all.

    It's Justin Bieber's five-year hiatus from Purpose in 2015, and given his popularity, it's only natural that the album will attract attention. After five years of living on other people's songs, 2016's remix Despacito topped the list for 16 weeks, and I'm the One did the same. But then "No Brainer" and last year's "I Don't Care" reached new heights. Remix Bad Guy got worse and worse.

    Selena Gomez and JB have been together on and off for five years, but they eventually split up. Before JB's album, Dummy Face released their new album Rare, which was also released around the same time as JB's Yummy album, so the already very good Rare looks even better against the Yummy.

    Really, when I heard Yummy, I was totally dumbstruck. Forget about the accompaniment, let's take a look at the chorus:

    You got that yummy, yum
    That tummy, yum

    WTF???

    So the stupid chorus is followed directly by the bland main song, and then the stupid chorus.

    This format is similar to Shawn Mendes' If I Can't Have You, except that Yummy has been enhanced in every aspect.

    You canadians still infect each other?

    Then why are The Weeknd songs so good?

    Oh, yeah, he is for R&B.

    Last year's Taylor Swift, what was that Me things are, but the entire Lover and Cruel Summer soundtrack makes it almost impossible to ignore the crap of Me. But JB, not everyone can write a song like Lover. Also in love, JB and TS two people's realm is different.

    I'm going to do the Yummy accompaniment, and then I'm going to do the Pop Trap. I thought it was an exception until I heard the full book today.

    It is not unprecedented to use Trap drums as Pop. Last year, Ari went to the Grammys for "Thank U Next" and was nominated for the annual album.

    J: Well, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.

    When I listen to this album, I wonder, are the author of this album and Purpose really the same person?

    For me, the prelude to the beginning of a song is very important. I listen to the timbre of the synthesizer and listen to the melody to judge the direction of a song, which is simply the first impression. I have to mention The Weeknd again - in terms of the Blinding Lights, the sound quality immediately caught my eye, so the accompaniment is the soul of a song for me.

    It's also not unheard of for an album to suffer from a faulty accompaniment. Last year's reviled Ed Sheeran album, the entire accompaniment, was too thin for me. See my review of last year for details. But I like Cross Me very much and recently it seems that Take Me Back To London is also a good idea.

    Yeah, is JB on the album as well?

    Alas, do not learn a point of good, to do the other people bad to learn.

    Thankfully, the second half of the album doesn't have that idiotic trap drumbeat, which is why I gave it two point instead of one.

    If you listen to it more than once, you'll get a very serious STD.

    Not bad for an R&B. It wasn't justin's best but his vocals are spot on. I love this grammy nominated album.

    Justin se perdeu neste álbum, se fosse lançado em 2010 seria bem vindo mas em 2020 é insuportável a ideia de ter q ouvir ele

    I love this album, the vocals delivered are perfect and didn't deserve to be so poorly rated, changes inspire me a lot, intentions and forever are my favorite tracks

    E.T.A is an anthem. I love changes! even though it's not what we used to get from Bieber, the album it's not just yummy

    While Bieber's voice still sounds like that of a mid- to late-teen, singing seems to come more naturally to him, and his falsetto pleas are neither bitter nor entitled, strictly genuine and adult.

    It’s a record in total lust and fealty to Hailey; you’ll probably want to duck out to use the bathroom halfway through.

    Artists can certainly grow up and mature without losing their edge or creative spark. Changes, however, is ultimately a transitional record that finds Bieber navigating how to reconcile adulthood with pop stardom—and discovering that, at least in his case, this merger is a tricky one.
