Jun 2, 2021Almost all of the songs on this album are about a boy or is about a breakup. Though they are extremely catchy like Deja Vu, Brutal, and Traitor, I just like songs that are not about the same thing.

May 21, 2021Achei um pouco decepcionante, achei que ia ser melhor por conta de Drivers Lincense mas é meio fraquinho
-
May 21, 2021gostei muito do album, porem achei as musicas um pouco parecidas umas com as outros, mas é um ótimo álbum debut ;)

Jun 18, 2021Álbum ok, um pouco superestimado por fãs e a mídia. Letras um pouco ralas, mas que pra um álbum de estreia são decentes. O hype exagerado encima das músicas e do álbum estragam um pouco o que era pra ser um dos álbuns do ano. É digno de ser escutado, por ter músicas muito boas e com instrumentação divertida.

Aug 9, 2021It's a great to see a Gen Z artist experiment on something other than just sad lofi songs, Nonetheless, the lyrics are descriptive of a teenage girl going through a BPD-attachment issue moment.

May 24, 2021Olivia Rodrigo has massive potential, but imagine if she didn't sing about the exact same thing in every song!
-
Aug 31, 2021overhyped album. the songs are good but not that great. poor lyric writing. she just combined (and sampled) billie eilish, taylor swift, lorde, paramore, etc. her voice is great but the album is not.
-
Jul 21, 2021it's not a bad album but the theme of the girl who got dumped is kinda boring and repetitive. the production is ok and the lyrics are very cringe. for a debut album, I expected to see the type of artist olivia is but the only thing i can see is she sounding as her favourite artists, like taylor, lorde.
-
May 21, 2021I could say that it is nothing to write home about, but that Miss Rodrigo is not just a fad
-
May 22, 2021It’s boring (lyrics and sound) and so monotonous. People say she is introducing rock/punk to the younger generation on this album but it isn’t close. The only songs I think are ok: good 4 u, brutal, jj and traitor.
-
Jun 14, 2021Not bad but not crazy about it. Lots of bangers plus great lyricism, album is kind of blend of teenage angst and sorrow. I can see that she got inspired by several artists (Tay), but I think she should built her own persona (if she wants to succeed later with her second album).
-
May 23, 2021It's a good album. But there is so much repetitive. There is some good tracks.
-
May 21, 2021sour is average, some songs make it look like a new copy of Taylor Swift, but as well as innovative, driver's license and deja vu are incredible, moreover it sounds raw

May 23, 2021good 4 u and deja vu were great and had me excited for the release but the only track i would find myself listening to after this (besides the two aforementioned tracks) is brutal and that’s it

Jun 1, 2021I think that the album was very hyped before the release and listening to all the tracks was very … delusional. “driver license” was good only for a tiktok trend and so “deja vu”. “good 4 u” instead is a very cute song maybe the only one that’s very good from the album.

Jul 27, 2021I'm totally in love with each and every song from this Album. From Songwriting to Vocals, Production everything is just perfect.
You can feel the heartbreak just by Listening to Olivia's voice. Songs like Deja Vu, Driver's licence and Traitor are good to listen when you miss your ex. While Good For You give the vibes of angry and sad. -
Jul 30, 2021The album is really basic and all the songs are really similar, I can’t tell which song I’m listening to. But in general, I liked 2 songs, being favorite crime and good 4 u.

Aug 5, 2021Olivia Rodrigo is a good songwriter and singer and although this album is good I just wish she would have changed things up a little. I think the only thing memorable about this album is the records it broke, its unoriginal and in a couple months it will be forgotten.

May 16, 2022o projeto debut é no melhor medíocre, não é cativante e parece uma cópia barata dos projetos dos artistas grandes de hoje em dia. é extremamente superestimado, não é um álbum que merecia pop vocal of the year ao competir com projetos de extrema qualidade vocal e produção inovativa.
melhores músicas: deja vu, drivers license, favorite crime -
Jul 5, 2022Basic production, basic lyrics, nothing new or exciting. You can count thee or four songs for listening without getting bored. Sour only shares Olivia's heartbreak and insecurities, she's still unrevealed as an artist, who's she without her last relationship? We don't know yet. There's a large lack of her own herself personality and identity, anyone can sound like her.

May 28, 2021Her combination of sweet melodies and bitter moods, her conversational flow, and her self-awareness are all skills many songwriters twice her age would love to call their own, and they make Sour a well-rounded emotional journey and strong debut album.
-
May 25, 2021Sour, for the most part, is a pop album that dips its toes into the alt-pop and bedroom pop subgenres, specifically spending most of its time in the latter. ... Rodrigo's lo-fi deep cuts that were made in the shadow of "Drivers License" can sound a bit repetitive. Her craft as a songwriter is especially evident on tracks like "Enough For You", "Happier", or "Hope Ur Ok", but the acoustic complexion these songs were going for could have benefitted from a bit more background noise.
-
May 25, 2021By the end of the album, Rodrigo has established her voice and showed listeners that she's not afraid to be vulnerable. SOUR is a strong debut that vividly illustrates the beautiful chaos of being inside a teenage girl's brain.
