    Uma verdadeira bomba radioativa. Coloquei no spotify porque uma amiga me pediu pra dar stream e disse que a katy tava precisando, mas infelizmemte quando dei play minha familia ficou tão traumatizada e intoxicada com a radiação que tivemos que sair de casa por 5h pra contaminação sair da nossa sala de estar.

    Smile is the worst album released by the artist, it sounds completely dated and forgotten in the middle of her vast discography. What Katy Perry needs is to find herself artistically, and she fails in this project. One of the worst albums of 2020.

Extremamente básica, tenta emular o estilo Dance/Disco e falha pois álbuns anteriores como Future Nostalgia,    Entediante! 5 álbuns lançando as mesmas músicas pedantes com cara de 2008.

    There are good songs such as Harleys in Hawaii, Tucked and Smile (Song), but after what she did in Witness, I was waiting for something really new such as what she did in Harleys in Hawaii. That is the reason for my score: Please, Katy. Come with something new and fresh. Bring back that pop star that enchaincheted us

Cuando comenzó a lanzar música a principios de la década sabía que llegaría alto, y creo que se ha ganado con el tiempo su estatus de leyenda pero, personalmente, una leyenda como ella no puede lanzar este álbum.

    Katy tries to look fresh after her latest failure called witness but it just seems to be a desperate attempt as only a couple of songs are worth listening to. It's a shame to hear such mediocre work, poorly produced and written by someone like Katy Perry. From Katy Perry we expected two things and one did not like her demanding audience at all. Bad for Katy and her team.

    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).
