    She inspires us so much, to see her so vulnerable but at the same time strong is so rewarding

    Very good album! Some songs are a little miss for me, like boyfriend and rare. But I enjoy most of the album and some songs are just awesome. I really really love Ring, Souvenir and Lose You to love me. People you know is cute too. Overall well put together album with some very cute bops.

    Rare is Selena's most cohesive work. While there are tracks in the album that are exceptionally good, I did find the production in others a bit off. Nevertheless, the album celebrates self-love and moving forward, which are great themes for self-empowerment.

    The versatility of every track is incredible, there are a lot of potential singles. The feature artists are very unexpected. Her vocals improved so much through the years. The album is good in general but the lack of promotion and bad choosing of singles damned it, it deserves so much more though.

    Altough this album has some songs that were better if they didn´t existed, Rare shows a big growth in Selena´s carrer, proving to be her most challenging album, so far. Marked by it´s nostalgic and soft vocals, there are several songs on this album that are capable of making him remarkable.
    Top Track: People You Know
    Worst Track: Fun
