    Álbum péssimo, podre e preguiçoso igual tudo da Selena. Álbum cheio de composições sobre Justin Bieber que hoje está casado e feliz com sua esposa

    Selena Gomez es Reductive eterna sirvienta de su patrona Madonna. Quedo toda Rare que podemos esperar del perro del pop aunque supero a Mierga. Eterna patrona de Lady Transga.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. an untrue album titled "personal" but it was a conglomeration of songs written by other people or even discarded by other artists. Generic and impersonal, not very good songs and with a sickening voice that is not 1% of the horror that is live. Expand

    e mais uma vez, selena gomez entrega um trabalho vergonhoso, nada de inovador com seus sussurros horripilantes. Uma vergonha para a indústria musical!

    and once again, selena gomez delivers a shameful job, nothing innovative with her creepy whispers. A shame for the music industry!

    Gomez disse que ninguém poderia contar sua história melhor do que ela, porém o álbum a contradiz. São faixas escritas por - várias - outras pessoas e demos vazadas em outras vozes.

    Bad. Production is boring, vocals are non existent and the lyrics are some of the most bland I have ever heard. It tries to be experimental, but, quite frankly, fails.

    For a healthier option, stream Manic by Halsey

    For a personal album, she talks a lot about Justin in this one specially the lead single. Selena can pretend to be unbothered, but she is bothered by the fact that Justin married, and she can’t use him anymore in the future for clout.

    Also all the songs in this album are rejected ones.

    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.
  2. Jan 14, 2020

    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.
