    Such a bad album boring, nothing new, always in her confort zone, stream chromatica instead!

    Same songs with beats that tried to be "catchy" but at the end and desperate attempt for relive their past hits.

    You have to be honest, for an artist of the stature of Katy Perry this is not a good album. It's not soo bad and it's okay that i wanted to make a personal album, however that doesn't mean that this album is forgetful anf boring.

    Sinceramente esperaba algo más de este álbum, pero creo que fue error mío tener mis expectativas demasiado altas. El álbum no es tan malo pero no es algo que recomendaría o escucharía seguido

    We were used to hearing good music from Katy Perry, but since her last Album I was disappointed, wait for more on Smile, two songs are saved.

    El álbum no me gusto del todo, pero lo califico con 0 porque las gatas son unas liosas que empezaron a calificar con 0 el álbum Chromatica, esto no lo hago por Katy sino por sus fans toxicas que le estamos apoyando y ellas antes se ponen de haters a joder a las demas artistas

    Katy Perry is in the deepest place with this album, us basic and has nothing new. She keeps giving to her fans the same boring and so no iconic songs. It's time for her to take a break.

    It's sad that a big pop star such Katy Perry had declined this way. Smile has no cohesion as an album itself. Three songs are only the exception. She should take a rest and bring pop music what it deserves.

    Realmente todo el disco parecen descartes de sus trabajos anteriores. No se siente una conexión o sonido que nos diga quién es Smile. Las baladas son monótonas y aburridas. La mayor parte del disco parecen rellenos inecesarios. Canciones como Harleys in Hawaii o Never Really Over duelen verlas dentro de éste trabajo.

    In spite of, or maybe because of, her promotional spectacles—Left Shark, the whipped cream bra, teasing her baby’s name with a single release—she’s long been able to comfortably assume legions of people will listen to her music, without even asking themselves why. The unspoken question of Smile is: Why now?

    Me gustaría decir que es algo novedoso o al menos decente, pero para nada es así, sigue la misma línea que todos sus trabajos anteriores, muy feliz, positiva y cae en lo cliché, solo una o dos canciones son realmente buenas pero lamentablemente no son memorables.

    Katy is a wonderful woman, but she never reinvents herself. She has been doing the same pop since the beginning of her career. In addition to children's themes. It looks like an album for children, in fact, maybe not even children like something more professional. An amateur album for a great woman.

    It really needs to reinvent itself. She does not offer anything new with material tete, always the same, she is very stagnant. You should try to risk doing something more novel and attention-grabbing.

    Katy Perry no suele ser mi artista favorita pero su disco no es malo. Creo que su mayor defecto es que dejó muy pocas canciones nuevas y lanzó muchos sencillos desde hace más de un año. Mi favorita siguen siendo NRO pero tiene otras buenas.

    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).
