    This is the most boring album ever, Katy perry has to try new things. The idea of circus doesn’t make sense with the songs.

    Katy failed once again with this album. Even the critics are not impressed. She needs to grow and release a mature work, but not like Witness, that wasn’t mature, that was just a mess.

    Katy Perry was one of the most important woman on music industry, but she’s just making music that sounds just like her last album “Witness” it’s just not gonna work. Please give us something new
    Katy no more Perry.

    just bad, the songs aren’t any new and even for Katy Perry, the songs can become boring since the first listen.

    Folklore se cago en este intento de álbum tan más asqueroso y patético. Katy se colgó del nacimiento de su hija para lanzar semejante asquerosidad.
    Mejor que se retire y que disfrute su maternidad. No necesitamos este tipo de música tan más horrendo y para básicos.

    Katy Perry's new album Smile didn't wow us, it has the same childish sounds she's used to. It feels unfinished.

Swifties are helping you promote and this is what we’ll get? Get a life and continue supporting yours.… Expand

    an album that brings nothing new, monotonous and sickening, I heard it once and it was enough to say that I never want to have contact with it again.

    Without fleeting moments of bad taste, Perry does indeed sound mature, but she's also not quite as fun. That's a conscious choice, though. Smile is intended to evoke memories of her frivolous younger days while pointing toward a sustainable pop future.

    While Perry finds the occasional moment of quality here (Smile and Tucked both feel like the best possible music we could get from Katy Perry in 2020), Smile is an album searching for an identity—and when it fails, it falls back on lazy writing.

    Like Joanne before Chromatica, Smile plays like a necessary centering exercise, indulging her insecurities and less surefire instincts. If Witness was overdetermined, Smile is an earnest exhale, for better or for worse. It delivers an image of her journey towards inner peace that is honest (if corny) and catchy (if not exactly inventive).
