    You know an album is good when you can’t pick favourites. Even tried picking my top 5. It’s just so hard. I love how every song has a message to convey even the light and not too deep songs. The production is also well done. Each song was produced differently. When Look at her now was released, I thought I knew what the sound of the album would be like, but I stand corrected.

When Look at her now was released, I thought I knew what the sound of the album would be like, but I stand corrected. It was better than I expected. I also love the hint of R&B. I always say quality over quantity, but the album’s so good that I don’t mind if it would’ve been longer. Like I was hungry for more songs cause it was that good. Her voice has also improved so much. I love how confident she sound on each track. There’s also so much emotion on how she sings which made every song heartfelt, even the fun and not too deep ones. This album really solidifies her status as an artist. She really delivered.… Expand

    La evolución no solo en su música, si no también en su vida y forma de vivirla se ve reflejada en este disco, con una montaña rusa de sonidos que no dejan de hacerte sentir empoderada y más positiva que nunca. Simplemente una obra de arte.

    Such a good album. She has never been that vulnerable and honest, singing straight from her heart about heartbreaking and being disappointed. "Vulnerable" is the heart of this album, while "A sweeter place" is the brain.

    It’s definitely her best album. The sound, the lyrics, her vocals are exceptional. It’s something different coming from her. From different sounds going from 80s vibes like Ring to more electronic music like People you Know.

    this album is everything pop music is supposed to be; fun, catchy, and relatable. her sound has completely changed from the sound she presented with her previous album "Revival", which shows that she is a true versatile artist. 100% recommend giving "Rare" a listen!

    1.Rare 8/10: A forma em que Selena se revolta contra seu amor e também reconhece que é tão especial dá um ar de angustia para a música titilo do álbum, pois ela implora que ele reconheça que ela é tão rara, e ela mesmo reconhece isso, não se deixando por baixo.

    2.Dance Again 8/10: Essa faixa certamente fala sobre momentos difíceis da vida de Selena, e também sobre seu recomeço onde ela se vê com novos sentimentos e mais experiente, finalmente se sente bem para dançar novamente.

    3.Look At Her Now 9/10: Essa música nos leva um pouco de volta a faixa rare, onde temos Selena sofrendo por algum tempo, novamente por um grande amor, mas poxa olhe ela agora.

    4.Lose You To Love Me 10/10: Aqui vemos Selena novamente se remoendo por um amor não correspondido, mas tentando se reerguer, conseguindo abrir mão de uma pessoa que amava, para se amar.

    5.Ring 3/10: Finalmente temos os papeis invertidos e vemos uma Selena totalmente diferente do começo do álbum, onde dessa vez quem estava com o coração partido está partindo o coração de multidões.

    6.Vulnerable 7/10: Na faixa vemos Selena se abrindo e se mostrando da forma mais pura para seu amor, questiona se ele seria capaz de aceitar e capaz de passar por toda essa confusão por seu amor.

    7.People You Know 9/10: Nessa faixa vemos uma Selena ressentida, como se seu grande amor, que já foi a pessoa que ela tanto amou, e tanto foi intima hoje é alguém que ela não conhece.

    8.Let Me Get Me 9/10: Vemos Selena em um momento em que cansou de sofrer como nas músicas anteriores, desligando seus sentimentos por uma noite e se permitindo ser feliz, depois de tudo que foi retratado nas músicas anteriores.

    9.Crowded Room 8/10: Selena se mostra apaixonada nessa faixa, tendo apenas olhos para seu amado, mesmo com tanta outra pessoa ao seu lado, e quando 6LACK começa a cantar vemos que finalmente o amor de Selena foi correspondido.

    10.Kinda Crazy 7/10: Vemos Selena abrindo seus olhos para um amor que já não está mais como era antes, e podemos sentir também sua frustração com esse amor, pois não foi ela quem deu o primeiro passo.

    11.Fun 7/10: Retrata nessa musica uma paixão ou um amor, não conseguimos entender bem, mas algo que é divertido algo leve, que faz bem.

    12.Cut You Off 10/10: Essa música retrata bem o álbum todo, pois Selena chega ao seu momento de revolta onde se vê necessitada de cortar esse amor toxico fora.

    13.A Sweeter Place 10/10: Vemos aqui a evolução de Selena onde ela retrata que acordou e finalmente está sentindo suas emoções como devem ser, ela passa uma paz nessa música, onde encerra o álbum mostrando que está melhor que nunca e com sua vida e com sigo mesma.    … Expand

    This album has a few catchy songs, but is mostly made up of pretty generic songs. I wouldn't say the album is very creative or original. My favorite song on the album is "Rare." I enjoyed the album, but mostly thought it was just alright.

Luego de 4 años de tantos altos y bajos desde su última producción "Revival", a sus 27 años, Gomez ha logrado superarse y atraverse ha cosas que no habría hecho antes. "Rare", sin duda, es uno de los mejores albumes de los últimos tiempos que ,estoy seguro, no sólo logró gran éxito comercial tras debutar en la cima del Billboard 200, sino que es simplemente una pieza maestra de la música, que conserva una fragilidad y delicadeza a pesar del viaje y la historia detrás del mismo que, por sí solo, muestra las diferentes facetas de una persona con una fortaleza y claridad que es difícil encontrar actualmente, este es sin duda un gran respiro de la tendencia actual, pues en vez de usar conceptos modernos que fastidian los oídos, Selena decidió conquistar hablando sobre sí misma, cosa que ha resultado excelente para estar identificado y sentirse como uno en un millón. El album comienza con el sencillo que titula al mismo, un canto de amor propio que termina por cautivar con la filosofía de ser único y excepcional aunque nadie lo vea. El segundo en la lista, Dance Again es un baile disco-pop pegadizo que nos invita a seguirlo con una melodía inconfundible. Look At Her Now es himno icónico de feminismo y poder, cien por ciento bailable, que recuerda que siempre se puede subir desde el fondo aún con todo en contra. Obviamente no se puede olvidar al número 1 en el Billboard Hot 100, Lose You To Love Me, una balada hecha obra de arte sobre una relación amorosa a la que por fin se le dice adiós. Respecto a las demás pistas. En Ring, la palabra misma pierde el significado a lo largo de la letra y música, impregnadas del ritmo latino como su hermana, Let Me Get Me que es inconfundible por su acentuada letra y acústica de baile movido. Obviamente no se pueden terminar de resaltar cada canción, Cut You Off, fue uno de los muchos cambios en la música de Gomez al incluir la guitarra eléctrica y transformarlo en una pista agradable aunque simple. Kinda Crazy experimenta con la trompeta y un gran brillo tecnológico junto a otros instrumentos, lo mismo que Fun, sin trompeta pero divertida y fresca. People You Know es simple, con letra y ritmo interesantes que funciona al crear una melodía única y seria. Crowded Room funciona como la introducción de Gomez al R&B mostrando un buen comienzo que se complementa con la voz de 6lack siendo la primera colaboración del disco. A Sweteer Place es Gomez en su estilo alternativo más oscuro y profundo emocionalmente de la mano de Kid Cudi, convirtiendo a la canción en la segunda colaoración. Vulnerable es la mejor de las pistas, son los temores mismos de Gomez presentados en un bella canción, con una melodía celestial y una letra que penetra como cuchillo, siendo única, emotiva, fresca y hermosamente una maestría musical subestimada. Finalmente sobra decir que Gomez tomó todo su ser, y lo volvió un disco personal que te llega al corazón y con el que te puedes identificar. Rare es el album del año.… Expand

    El trabajo más sólido de Gómez, expresa muy bien sus emociones en las canciones. La lírica es muy buena, su voz es también algo a destacar en el álbum, pero algunas canciones se sienten planas, no se siente como si tuvieran un clímax. El tiempo de espera valió la pena, Selena nos ha entregado uno de los mejores álbumes de 2020 y el mejor de su carrera. 72/100

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Selena Gomez is a talented artist. Her first album with the record label Interscope, was filled with bops like “Same Old Love”, “Good For You”, “Hands To Myself”, etc. Rare was highly anticipated and for many fans exceeded expectations. With a little more promotional help from her record label, Selena Gomez would have more number 1 singles off this album. I personally think this album is really good. I like it better that Revival. This album deserves a grammy.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best albums of 2020, and perhaps the most personal and mature work selena has ever delivered, the lyrics are fresh and catchy and her vulnerability becomes so relatable has she allows it to be, many say gomez doesn't upgrades her sound, but it's clear that it's a lie, as she explores non typical areas for her, vocally and musically, the vocal fragility selena delivers on lose you to love me and vulnerable are unmatchable, she's not the best singer out there but she brings emotion and captures the attention of the listener ❤️… Expand

    Rare is one of the best song. Gomez expresses and opens up to us about her lupus, her previous relationship, what she has been through and where she is now! You will love this. She deserves a Grammy nomination.

    Pop perfection! Every track tells a story about her life between her last album "Revival" and the new and enhanced one, "RARE" which it really is!

    Every song has different vibe and the lyrics are so great. My favourite ones are “People You Know” “Souvenir”
    I can feel the line “We used to be close but people can go from people you know to people you don’t” very deep. It’s like what I’ve been living lately. She really made an amazing job this time and I am proud of her.

    Rare continually teases intriguing forays into leftfield pop, but so many of the album’s experiments come off as just that, without ever crystallizing with memorable hooks.

    The record she has delivered to kickstart a new decade is a career defining release, and from a pop star who is firmly back on top of her game.

    While none of these 13 songs attempt the subtle weirdness of “Bad Liar” and the emotional thesis—self-love!—can be a bit one-note, Rare is the 27-year-old’s most cohesive record to date. ... But it’s difficult to come away from Rare with any real perspective on who Gomez is other than that she doesn’t want to be the person she was, whoever that similarly mysterious shadow was.
